Longest R27 kill?

[Gunfreak]

Regular one, not extended range (when did the extended range become avaliable?)

 

I had a M2000 locked up. I was not very high or very fast(a bit under M.1, and around 20k feet. So I could only launch at around 12nm.  I fired at around 10. The M2000 started to turn and i followed it. And my R27 gave up pretty quickly.

And so far, that's my only radar launch I have. 

What's your longer lock on and hit with the R27?

It should be possible, it was on older R-27, to reach 90 km with R and 130 km with ER. 
 

The limit is radar range. So you’ll probably be limited to 70 km in fulcrum unless it’s home on jam.

With the Mig-29A Fulcrum jousting up at 12000m and going mach 1.2 I won firing at 27-28km and he and I both cranked, but him not as much as me. Here it is from earlier today on Contention.

With the FC MiG-29 and the old model of the R-27 i hit a Tomcat at just under 50km (48km), but he also was flying straight at me on Enigmas cold war

It's in this video here.

Around 1987 for PVO Su-27s is when R-27ER was first seen in service

Longest one I achieved was between 70 and 75km against fighter sized target.

Detection appeared around 85 - 90km.
