Unusual solution: As the Armed Forces were able to install Harm missiles in Soviet fighters

Engineers were able to bypass the main obstacle to the integration of American missiles into the MiG-29 and Su-27-an outdated avionic. The Ukrainian military was able to integrate American anti-radiological missiles AGM-88 HARM into Soviet fighters by installing an additional battery and supplying the control cable directly to the pilot cab. This was reported in the telegram channel of the Army of Defense of Israel Igal Levin, citing the Israeli media.

The integration of the NATO missiles into the Natovskaya aircraft is a difficult task. In fact, Ukrainian engineers were able to make "almost Israeli combination". The rocket was integrated into guides that were not initially intended for her. The military had to improvise. Harm was connected to power not from a plane, but from a portable battery. Due to this, the rocket works continuously due to the power source.

As soon as the rocket captures the radar station, the pilot receives alert in the cab and starts it. The cable was made directly from the guide rocket. In this way, it was possible to solve the main problem - on Soviet fighters outdated avionica, which does not allow the use of modern Western missiles. It is unknown at this time who helped Ukrainian engineers to come up with this idea. Apparently, these were Americans.
