0005874: SU-25SM radar?
The lack of radar on a vehicle that currently or recently been upgraded with radar.
N/A
Under the game the SU-25 is designated as the SU-25SM, but it how ever lacks several features the SM had equipped such as the Kopyo-25M, and improved avionics. This was all entered into service in 2007. This would bring it closer to on par with the A-10 with out adding another aircraft.

"The upgraded version for the Russian Air Force, the Su-25SM, which entered service in January 2007, includes new navigation computer, Bars digital avionics system, Pastel countermeasures suite, SUO-39 fire control system and Phazotron Kopyo-25M radar."

It is designated as Su-25 in game. We don't have model Su-25SM model in game

Integrating the Koypo radar into the aircraft was rejected as part of the Su-25SM upgrade by the Russian Air Force.
It was just something that Sukhoi proposed having seen the benefits of it during their development of the SU-25TM/Su-39 (which never saw serial production) where the radar was carried in a centreline pod below the aircraft.

If Su-25SM or Su-25SM3 were subsequently to carry radar, it would be in the external pod. But it doesn't appear that Russia bought the podded radars either.
