Description

The Mig-31BM is an upgraded version featuring improved air-to-air and air-to-surface capabilities with the inclusion of Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses (SEAD) using anti-radiation missiles. It is fitted with upgraded avionics and digital data links, a new Zaslon-M multimode radar, color multi-function cockpit displays, and a new, more powerful computer. As of August 2010, the Russian Air Force plans call for the upgrade of 80 Mig-31 interceptors to the Mig-31BM standard by 2020. These aircraft will be equipped with R-73 short-range air-to-air missile, R-77 medium range air-to-air missile, R-33S and K-37M long-range air-to-air missiles as well as the latest Kh-31 anti-radiation missile. The new multimode radar is able to track up to 24 targets at ranges of up to 320 kilometers and engage eight of them simultaneously.
