I think Russian are going to use TU-160M in high end conflict as an AWACS. they have more fuel efficient and uprated engines. almost twice the power of A-100. slow low altitude AWACS will have hard time to be relevant.
The basic technology behind missiles like R-37 is from 1980s. now Russian are going to deploy what they called 5G and 6G missiles.
the rest of in between capabilities are covered with satellites, fighters, attack helicopters and drones.
the radar and engine power for this Forpost is too small but still capable of finding targets and transmitting targets as far as use of Kalibr missiles. this compactness and lightness of system.

Can you go in more detail about 5G and 6G missiles? I could not find any information on this online? Is this a successor to the R-37M?

it was one of the Arabic side broad cast not the main stream. mentioning next generation of ultra long range missiles.
around same time when Russia introduced this missile for Su-57. Russia only has publicly admitted 5G missile for short range and they may not even show to give surprize.
The news gives you enough hint about direction of production and importance of each weopon system like in 2024 they are still increasing Ka-52M production and so highly likely it is the main weopon system.
