300km combat radius? About 150 miles is it? Wow, just more Russian built avionics that have limited endurance and capabilities, unless you ask the Russian media.
“300km combat radius? About 150 miles is it?”
Combat range is about 200 miles, and can be doubled, or tripled with pylon fuel tanks, but that effects bombload. The SU-25S variant upgrade has a glass cockpit with HUD, and upgraded countermeasures.
Up to 8,800 lbs of bombs can make a big impact.
Dirt cheap, very plentiful, and dirt simple to fix. The SU-28 variant can run on Diesel, as well as Avgas. Much more survivable than a helicopter gunship, in the modern era.
Dead meat against most modern interceptors, but you have to go down to surface-to-surface missile range to play with it.
