Practically all European tracked vehicles have rubber pads on the tracks
K9 Fin for example
And if needed we install ice “spikes” for icy/snowy conditions

they most definitely at least had something to do with it considering it’s an American plane
I’d love to see them in Israel

iirc the English term is “track grouser”
For anyone intrested, they’re the lil x-shaped pieces of metal on the 2A4 front plate.
Not everyone bothers though, e.g. Challenger 2 runs rubber pads in all conditions.
Good to know, we called them “jää hokit” and i wouldn’t want to drive without then in northern Finlads winter

Well, it wasn’t really a disappointing aircraft; a modified version, the M.7bis, even won the Schneider Trophy in 1921. In Sweden it wasn’t appreciated because the crews would get wet during takeoff runs.
Apparently they were a bit delicate…
One of the requirements for a sea plane tends to be not having a cockpit that fills with water when you use it
The spray during takeoff would soak the pilot, not that the plane filled with water.
Haven’t you ever been on a boat?
Macchi’s seaplanes have always been an excellence
you are just trolling
Most likely, if they wanted to install Vikhr missiles on the Su-25SM3, they would have installed Hermes-A missiles.

This^
It would help the top teir lineup for Japan which doesnt have a 14.3 aircraft
Hermes-A is not mass-produced.
and it’s actually easier to install as it’s not beam riding but a laser seeker
The developer doesn’t care how many copies will be released and whether they are serial or not.

The Netherlands has the best quality public roads in the world.
Even leopard tanks drive over then occasionally.
