Historical Information and KH-23M Specification

The KH-23M, known as GRAU 9M149 and NATO designation AS-7 'Kerry', is an air-to-surface guided missile designed in the Soviet Union in the late 1960s. This weapon became a staple armament for many Soviet and later Russian attack and fighter aircraft, such as the MiG-21, MiG-23, MiG-27, and Su-17/22. The APU-68 system was used as a pylon launcher for mounting this type of missile under the wings or fuselage of the aircraft. KH-23M missiles took part in numerous armed conflicts during the Cold War and were used by Warsaw Pact countries, as well as exported to the Middle East and African nations.
