About this product
Hobby Master 1/72 Su25 SM "Frogfoot" Red 24 Russian AF
In September 2015 twelve Russian Su-25SM Frogfoot aircraft had been deployed to Hmeimim (Khmeimim) airbase in Latakia province, Syria to support the Syrian Government in its battles with ISIS and opposition forces. This was seen as an opportunity to test the Su-25SM in actual combat conditions. Before leaving Syria in April 2016 the Su-25SM had flown 1,600 sorties and dropped 6,000 bombs, mostly un-guided. In October 2016 the Frogfoot would once again return to Syria but this time they were the latest up-graded variant, the Su-25SM3 "Super Rook".
Designed as a close support aircraft with similar requirements to the US A-10, the Su25 was first flown on February 22nd, 1975.
