Asagiri is a modern destroyer of the 80s
its armed with decent AAW weapons the Sea sparrow ( I believe with 2 illuminators ) and CIWS x 2

year is 1990 and the ship is being attacked by 6 aircraft
3 x Mig-27 and 3 x Su-17
they are armed with a mix of AS-10,AS-12 and AS-14 missiles and some LGBs.The missiles are very short range and have no sea skimming capability obviously

Can the destroyer defend itself against 6 threats if they are detected at the same time?
Did the Mig-27 and Su-17 VVS versions carry any defensive gear to avoid the SAMs?

if you think it can easily dispatch the 6 threats then how many such strike planes ( fitter and flogger type) would be needed to overwhelm its defenses



thanks
