Wet frog's legs - kuznetsov01.jpg (1/1) [78K]

Again it's really Frogfoots/Frogfeet - two of them at least - operating from
the VMF's Kuznetsov.

Specifically they're Su-25UTGs, used for training pilots in carrier
operations.

Look at the state of the deck !!.
Thought it had to be clean and spotless on a carrier owing to FOD??

They're _Russians_. Foreign objects don't damage them, they damage foreign
objects.

Hi. Which aircraft are you referring to? In this image, I see a bunch of
Su-27s as well as a chopper of some sort in the background. In the
foreground I see one Su-25.

I just went to the Sukhoi website and got a bunch of ULTRA COOL images of
the Su-27 through Su-35. Awesome! This is one sleek and beautiful aircraft.
I'd love to see it flying.

Well, one could always link to Rianovosti through Pravda to find this
demonstration video.........(at least, that's how I stumbled across it
last week)

Frogdog has left the building.

I was actually referring to the set of photos as a whole rather than to this
particular one.

I could have said that explicitly when I posted but I obviously reckoned that
thinking it was enough :(

Ah, the Su-35. Always worth watching.

No problem. Neat images. I'm going to post a bunch of SU-27/35 images in a
second or two. Brace yourself! :)
