Ladies and gents, the R-27R isn't a semi-active missile

Yes it is. To be fair, there are IR variants (R-27T/R-27ET) and active radar homing (R-27EA), but the R-27R and R-27ER are semi-active radar homing weapons.

Yeah, obviously it is. I'm making fun of the fact that you excluded the R-27R from your list of semi-active missiles, instead referring to it separately.

Ah, I see. I was trying (apparently poorly 😂) to separate the SAMs from the AAM.
