+Crusader 2,101 Posted March 30, 2009 lindr2, do you have some detailed info on Su-25T operations in the second Chechen war ? I have a RAND study report which has a basic outline, 4 aircraft ( iirc ) but operational usage was limited.. they used Kh-25ML on several missions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a RAND study report which has a basic outline, 4 aircraft ( iirc ) but operational usage was limited.. they used Kh-25ML on several missions. Details about Usage Su-25T in Ethiopia & Chechnya is restricted. I only know, that in Ethiopia Russian pilots flied, and the part of Su-25T airplanes was used in both conflicts. With 2008 participants fighting action in Ethiopia have the status of veterans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
