Su-23 Flashbang

150 Beowulfe23  5.3 years ago

The Flashbang hides in the shadow of her well known big sister the MiG-23 Flogger. This swing wing multi-role is a balance between agility and load out. The Flashbang is optimized for ground interdiction and interception of bombers(though it can bite back in a dogfight). The main 30mm Gsh-6-30 holds 350 rounds of APHE for attacking aircraft and light armor. Belly pylons for ECM, Gunpods, or bombs(up to FAB-2000). The wing shoulder has a multi function 2xAA pylon with 1x extra pylon for other munitions. In this case it has been loaded with an extra radar guided AAM. Controls: VTOL for wing sweep, AG1 for drag chutes, AG2 for IFF lights
