Why Air-to-Air Missile Range Claims Collapse in Real Combat | WION Podcast

Beyond-visual-range missile shots look impressive on paper, but combat tells a different story. Real-world engagements show that altitude, speed, target manoeuvres, jamming, weather, and datalink loss sharply reduce effective range. Even advanced missiles like the AIM-120 AMRAAM and Meteor missile perform far inside their advertised limits once targets begin evading. History and modern data reveal that the true deciding factor is the no-escape zone, not maximum range. This episode explains why pilots often have to fly much closer than missile brochures suggest.
