REFERENCE
The Su-25 "Grach" is a Soviet-era attack aircraft, an armored subsonic military plane. It is designed for direct support of ground forces over the battlefield day and night with direct target visibility, as well as for destroying objects with predetermined coordinates round-the-clock in any weather conditions. Aircraft of this type have been in operation since 1981 and have participated in many military conflicts.
