AA-12 Adder (R-77M)

R-77M (izdeliye 180)
Very high RU

Extended-range active-radar AAM (5th gen)

Heavily improved R-77 with a dual-pulse motor and (reportedly) an active AESA seeker for greater range and better endgame. Fits the internal bays of the Su-57 and greatly extends the VKS's BVR reach — intended to match Western extended-range missiles.
