Yup, forgot about the RWR too.
I play a lot of RU CAS. Wont touch this thing outside of grinding it to keep the tree complete. DOA IMO.

I have a question. Why are you announcing a Soviet plane in the Soviet tech tree, but all the previews show it with “Russian Air Force” decals?
I mean, it is the USSR tech tree still and the plane was developed while the USSR still existed

It’s either move slow and turn fast or move fast and turn slow with jets, it’s always been that way, this this can sustain though with its engines and swing wings.
It has three separate RQR’s, so that should be no issue. The SU-25 doesn’t have MAWS or a ground radar (other than the Kopyo on the 39) and it’s got plenty of large caliber flares, just don’t use afterburner when you get a MAWS warning, like in any plane, you cut engine throttle when you know a missiles been launched, this is no different.
Main point of the SU-24M is, stay low, move fast, and strike first, or so be used as a strategic bomber (in air RB) to drop payload and leave.
The USSR build the first two or three models before the fall of the Soviet Union, but the M and M2 variants were Russian upgraded or produced, after the fall of the USSR.

It’s 11.3 in ground, same as Tornado.
It’s the same BR in air as some of the Tornadoes as well despite being inferior in air RB.
Not sure why you @warhead_beast and others are claiming 11.3 > 11.3…

That’s the point. What does Russia have to do with it, then?
Because it’s literally the same nation, my dude.
They still operate the Su-24 and both the original MiG-29 and Su-27 in the USSR tree have their more modern russian camos and roundels as well
The “M” modification appeared in the USSR, and the end of its modernization indeed fell in 1993. However, the modification itself was developed in the 1970s in the USSR.
The M2 variant was created in Russia, but the original M version first took to the skies back in 1976.
In the game, there’s a USSR tech tree that includes equipment from Russia, which was created in Russia. However, equipment originally created in the USSR remains classified as Soviet, as the main focus of the tech tree is the USSR.

Cause Russian Federation vehicles go to the country Russia was part of previously.
It’s really that simple.
Alright. Then why does the preview specifically feature the Russian Air Force? They could have used the Ukrainian Air Force, Belarusian Air Force, or even the Korean Air Force instead.
If I had to guess it would have something to do with the GLONASS bombs, which didn’t exist when the USSR operated these planes
In other words, this is a Su-24M that was operated by the Russians, rather than one that was operated by the USSR

SPPU-6s carry GSh-6-23s not 23Ms! And GLONASS guided bombs were introduced for the M2, same with Kh-29TEs. Why is the Kayra-24M missing FLIR? And where are the Fencer B and C?
Well, guess this is another case of Gaijin playing Frankenstein with the vehicle variants

Well, you said it yourself, the M modification was finished in 1993, post-Soviet Russia, and therefore was (after modification finished) outfitted with the paint schemes of the Russian Ain Force.
The Su-24M entered service in 1983
Yes, but once the fall of the Soviet Union happened, they repainted their planes in the paint of the Russian Airforce, it’s my personal assumption there is a “optional” paint for the Soviet Air Force (Yellow-Brown and sky blue/Dark-brown of the Syrian conflicts) as a unlockable camo for it when the update goes live. As always, there will be a client side option from the .live you could download.
