The Belarusian Hajun received photo evidence that Russian MiG-31K (RF-92339), which flew over Belarus escorted by a fighter from Baranavichy, conducted flights carrying Kh-47M2 Kinzhal hypersonic missile.
We note that this is the first photo on the Internet, where MiG-31K of the Russian Aerospace Forces with the registration number RF-92339 is carrying Kinzhal missile.
MiG-31K carrying Kinzhal missile / Belarusian Hajun
- What does this mean?
First, this photo is the first to visually confirm that MiG-31 with the number RF-92339 has been refitted into the K modification (can carry Kinzhal). Before that, there was such information only about RF-92462.
Therefore, it is logical to assume that the 3rd MiG-31K with the number RF-92333, which is in Machulishchy, can also carry Kh-47M2 Kinzhal missile.
Second, this picture fully confirms the assumption of the Belarusian Hajun dated October 18, 2022: we confirmed that on October 16, three aircraft of special modification MiG-31K arrived in Belarus.The aircraft can carry Kh-47M2 Kinzhal missiles and can launch them at a range of 2000 km.
We also wrote that Kinzhal missiles could be brought to Belarus together with MiG-31K.The assumption was made based on the fact that on October 16, three military transport aircraft IL-76 of the Russian Aerospace Forces (RF-86902, RF-76722, RF-76724) arrived at Machulishchy airfield from Russia. They could have brought missiles for launching from MiG-31K.
