Su-15 Armament

Standard armament of Su-15 consisted of two R-98 missiles carried on the outer wing pylons, one IR-guided and one radar guided variant. Initially the Su-15 carried also the older R-8M variants. The two IR-guided R-60s on inner wingpylons became standard on all Su-15 armed variants from 1973 onwards. The Su-15TM with Taifun-M radar was armed with two modernised R-98M missiles, two R-60 and underbelly gunpack consisting of two UPK-23-250 gun pods.
