I will stand by my point, that when pilot Mike Dozer fired his first Slammer he was ten miles away from the MiG-29. Now I don't know exactly what the "Rtr Range" of the Slammer but, ten miles away against a head-on aspect target, should be a high percentage shot.
A high percentage shot does not mean 100% certainty the target will be killed.

The last production run authorized by Congress, the price quotes was $45M apiece.
I would like to see the price of the F-35 series "if", the program had not benefited so much from R&D of the F-22 program?
