The footage also shows that both planes are equipped with American unmanaged 127-mm aviation missiles (NN) of the Air Earth-Earth class called Zuni.

The rocket has a range of up to 8 km, which it overcomes at a speed of 2600 km/h, with the possibility of punching armor about 500 mm thick. Defense Express observers noted that although the rocket, which was developed in the 1950s, was unmanaged, but in 2006, MBDA had an initiative project for the creation of Laser-Guided Zuni Rocket for this type of ammunition. Zuni missiles with laser guidelines were reported to have been tested in 2009.
