The R-23 "Sandstorm" was designed with modern technology mixed with the past. The aircraft was designed with the Vietnam-era in mind, but has modern avionics and computers on board. It was designed to destroy ground targets, usually infantry. Its slow cruising speed (compared to its fighter jet siblings) gives it more time to hit enemies below, and more accurately.
