I do not dismiss it at all, but rather question the motives of updating an older system to keep it relevant in terms of finances.
After all, the Mig-31 seems old but as such it is still possibly the best interceptor in service if updated to BM configuration.
It`s not an update , it`s new missile , more or less from Kh-22. Russian military thinks it needs anti-ship/carrier weapon that will replace Kh-22 which is going out of service due to "age" next few years.
