The Su-39 can take hits from missiles with smaller warheads such as the FIM-92K Stinger Missile.

The Su-39 has IRCM located on the rear tail. IRCM provides protection to the aircraft defending it from IR missiles from behind, but be aware that aircraft close enough or IR missiles that have ECCM can still strike you from behind.

Usage in battles

The Su-39 is a Close Air Support plane which performs best in Ground RB where it can provide support tanks below. This also means that it is slower than most fighter jets you will come in contact with at its BR. Your only defense for aircraft is your 2 R60M's and your GSh-23L Cannon.

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Has IRCM on rear of the plane
  • Wide Variety of Air-to-Ground munition
  • Decent Acceleration
  • Durable Airframe
  • can carry 4 GSh-23L Cannons

Cons:

  • poor maneuverability at low speeds
  • Having the radar pod/mercury targeting pod affects maneuverability a lot

History

The Su-39 was an upgrade of the Su-25. The upgrade also included the Su-25T and the Su-25TM. It differs externally by having a hump behind the cockpit to fit more electronics and a TV mounted in the nose.
