Faithful Historical Reproduction

The R-3R missiles, also known as NATO designation AA-2 Atoll-C, were the Soviet equivalent of the popular American AIM-9 Sidewinder. They entered service between 1962-1967 and were widely used by the Soviet Union and many Warsaw Pact countries, as well as exported to countries in the Middle East, Asia, and Africa. These missiles were mounted on modern fighters such as the MiG-21, MiG-23, and Su-17, serving as primary armament during Cold War conflicts, as well as, for example, in the Arab–Israeli wars.
