Wreckage imagery indicates Ukraine is now fielding the near-top-tier AIM-120C-8 air-to-air missile. The AIM-120C-8 is a modern variant of the AMRAAM family and can be deployed via F-16 fighter jets or NSAMAS launchers. This represents a significant upgrade to Ukraine's aerial combat capabilities against Russian aircraft.
