Overview:
Popularly known as the 'Frogfoot', the Su-25 is a twin-engine jet aircraft designed to provide close air support. The aircraft features an all-welded alloy cockpit with transparent windscreen armour block to protect the pilot and is equipped with a single K-36L Zvezda ejection seat. The wings have ten pylons that carry a wide range of air-to-air and air-to-ground weapon systems selected for the mission.

The aircraft's twin-barrel gun, the 30mm AO-17A, is installed in the underside of the fuselage on the port side. SPPU-22 gun pods can also be installed on the underwing pylons. An additional electronic warfare suite includes an SPO-15 Sirena-3 radar warning receiver and a Gardeniya radar jammer.

The aircraft is powered by two Soyuz/Gavrilov R-195s turbojet engines rated at 44.18kN. Cooling air is introduced at the end of the tail cone to reduce the temperature of the exhaust gases and minimise the infrared signature of the aircraft. The aircraft is equipped with self-sealing, foam-filled fuel tanks with a total capacity of 3,600 litres of fuel. The range of the aircraft can be extended by the provision of four PTB-1500 external fuel tanks, which are carried on the underwing pylons.

A Russian Air Force Su-25 from CRA Trailer after getting taken down by an USAF F-16CJ. Unfortunately, I can't find an Su-25 in a good condition from all available trailers so far. And the other scenes have an Su-25 in much, much worse condition already.

You guys should remove Assault Horizon from the games list. It's the Su-25TM that's appearing in the game, not the vanilla Frogfoot.

One sec:

The Su-25TM is the Su-39 right? And how to distinguish between the vanilla Grach and the 25TM other than from the HUD?

Shouldn't it be other way round? LOL.

Oh, do we get to destroy or fly the Grachs?

Okay, so, since the Su-25 and Su-25TM are different variants (Much like MIR-2000 and MIR-2000-5), does the Su-25TM deserves its own article?
