Translation

Translation is possibly wrong.

In article it says: Raketa-Velikaya Dalnost - means

Rocket-Great Distance - which doesn't make sense as in English.

It possibly should be:

Rocketa-Vysokoj Dalnosti

Rocket-of high Distance.

Range

Manufacturer's datasheet says 200km (http://www.missiles.ru/_foto/RVV-BD/IMG.jpg) and 280km for version with rocket booster on this link (http://www.missiles.ru/RVV-BD.htm).Z07x10 (talk) 17:34, 16 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Arrow or Axehead?

Hello @Ethan2345678 and 73.35.181.208:. I was patrolling recent changes when this edit popped up; and I went to look for sources on what the NATO reporting name was, but it seems 73.35.181.208 was not misguided on here since sources exist both claiming AA-13 Arrow and AA-13 Axehead to be the NATO name for R-37M.

Axehead: [1] [2] [3] [4]
Arrow: [5] [6] [7] [8] [9]

Can anyone definitively confirm or deny either name? dibbydib^⌐■_■ (barate me) 05:24, 24 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Axehead. Can confirm, current USN aircrew.

It's called Axehead by the folks that matter.

It's called the Axehead.

Current Growler driver here. 73.35.181.208 (talk) 06:56, 5 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Operational Service

There was an image that captured a very similar looking missile over Ukraine. Perhaps use in the current war in Ukraine can be added, although i struggle to think of any sources discussing the R-37's deployment there. 36.65.242.246 (talk) 08:25, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Might be time to re write the section on Ukraine hoping to modernise the F-16 MLU?

This section was true at the time, but since then the deliveries of F-16 happened and there does not seem to have been any further modernisation done beyond the original MLU package. Liger404 (talk) 00:33, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
