Test results,
Tested on F15C, F15E, F16C, F18C and mods with 120NM+ detection range against a clean Su-27(5.5m2 RCS),
Target nose hot and defending on missile seeker going active (AI veteran),
Max range shown below at respective altitudes have relatively low probability of kill against highly maneuvering targets.
