     @Fremen @Eichenlaub the Su-25 has the same role as the A-10
     
     it has a two barrel recoil operated 30mm autocannon instead of a gatling gun

     @deprecated_ii @Fremen @Eichenlaub Someone was just tellin me these have surprisingly, amazingly low attrition over there. Crazy to think it’s not as armored, facing down some stiff defenses, but doing just fine

     @Eichenlaub @deprecated_ii yeah I'm not too familiar with Russian planes.
     When I say A10 equiv I mean the following
     *Can go slow without stallion
     *Can take flak without blowing up
     *Carries ATG ammunition
     *Has a sweet 30mm rotary cannon for strafing runs

     @deprecated_ii Do the Russians have some equivalent of the A10? I know the SU27 exists but it's a bit fast.
