N003E (MiG-23ML)

This information is edited from a repost of an acig.org forum post by mrdetonator:

The fire control system/radar system ensures:

1. target acquisition in all-aspect at any weather condition, day/night

2. identification friend or foe

3. tracking of single target in head-on/pursuit, measuring range and angular position

4. all-aspect engagements of air targets at altitudes =>1.5 km with the R-23R and rear-aspect engagement with the R-23T,R-3S,R-13M,R-60. (Hc <>= Hs)

5. rear-aspect engagements of targets flying at low altitudes using the R-23T,R-3S,R-13M,R-60. (Hc > Hs)

6. rear-aspect engagements of small/big targets flying at low altitudes using the R-23R, R-23T,R-3S,R-13M,R-60. (Hc < Hs)

7. rear-aspect engagements of maneuvering targets using asynchronous aiming methods and gun weapons.

8. detection and engagements of low-speed targets

9. giving command signals to fire, end of intercept,......when manual/automatic(ARL-SM) flight controls.

10. giving command signals for ready/launch of R-23R,R-23T,R-3S,R-13M,R-60.

11. providing STT mode for the R-23R.

12. giving the range information to the ASP HUD-sight when gun firing at air targets.

13. giving the range information to the ASP HUD-sight when gun firing at ground targets and bombing.

(Hs- altitude of the Mig-23, Hc- target altitude)
