Su-25 cockpit

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557]

The second canopy, has sometimes this mirror, wich can be used to look forward. And on some canopys there is a glass roof, is it a designation stuff or was it just randome?

Almost al UB russian planes(including the MiG-29) has this mirror under the cockpit...its for the backseater watch the land.

 

i think its retractible, since i've seen it with and without the mirror.

How much I know, this mirror is for the instructor to the second cabin was easier to see the runway before the plane ...

ok thx and how does it come that the mirror isn`t fitte to all planes?

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557]

And were all su-25ub cabines seperated? the rear one is seperated with a armor glass behind the front seat. is it standart or only on some versions?

[FastCargo 412]

I'd imagine because some planes don't need a mirror if the seating position is good enough.

The seat positions seems to be the same?! but ok...

Usually if a plane has a partition between the front and rear cockpits it's due to ejection seat-related concerns and would be standard on all built. The only reason not to have the mirror is if the plane wasn't a trainer but a combat 2-seater. However, I'm unaware of any 2-seat 25s that are designed for combat not training.

That` seems to be the reasen a 2seat trainer maybe a FAC plane don`t know if russians have such birds for those missions, and the one with mirror is a trainer. Thx for this info, this seems to be an interesing aircraft, would like to have some infos from lindr2, but he seems very busy with his mig`s

War nicht die Su-28 eine zivile Trainingsversion der Su-25? Irgendwie war da was. Vielleicht kommen daher die Unterschiede im Cockpitbereich.

[+76.IAP-Blackbird 3,557]

Die Su-28 war die endgültige Bezeichnung der Su-25UT. Die Su-28 ist eine unbewaffnete Version der Su-25UB. Die Su-28 war als Nachfolger der Aero L-29 und L-39 in den russischen Luftstreitkräften und der paramilitärischen DOSAAF gedacht. Der Erstflug fand am 06.08.1987 statt. Aber Ende der 1980er Jahre wurde ein neuer Strahltrainer für die Fortgeschrittenen-Ausbildung ausgeschrieben dem die Su-28 nicht entsprach. Neben dem dann entwickelten Projekt S-54 bewarben sich die Mjassischtschew M-200, Mikojan-Gurewitsch MiG-AT und Jakowlew Jak-130. Im Jahr 2002 entschieden sich die russischen Luftstreitkräfte für die Jakowlew Jak-130
