Kh-58UShKA

Description: The Kh-58 is a supersonic, anti-radiation missile developed by the Soviet Union to counter enemy air defenses and radar sites operating in A/A', B/B' and C frequency bands. The missile can receive target indication and guidance from the aircraft onboard sensors or from an external pod carrying a sensor set. Equipped with a passive homing head the missile can engage radar emitters day/night and in adverse weather conditions. It was designed as the replacement for older Kh-28 missiles.

The Kh-58UShKA is a stealth variant of the Kh-58UShKE anti-radiation supersonic missile designed for release by fifth generation fighter aircraft such as the PAK FA and the PAK DA bomber. The missile features angular, compact airframe and stealth coating to minimize its radar signature and folded wings to fit into inner weapons bays. The existence of the stealth Kh-58UShKA missile developed by Raduga, part of Tactical Missiles Corporation, was revealed in October 2015.
