Offensive armament

Main article: GSh-30-2 (30 mm)

The Su-39 is armed with:

  • A choice between two presets:
    • 1 x 30 mm GSh-30-2 cannon, belly-mounted (200 rpg)
    • 1 x 30 mm GSh-30-2 cannon + 192 x countermeasures.

Suspended armament

The Su-39can be outfitted with the following ordinance:

  • 2x R60M Missiles + 8x FAB-500Sh
  • 2x R60M Missiles + 8x FAB-500-62
  • 2x R60M Missiles + 32x OFAB-100

  • 2x R60M Missiles + 16x 9K127 Vikhr + Mercury Targeting Pod
  • 2x R60M Missiles + 4x 23 mm GSh-23L Cannon
  • 2x R60M Missiles + Kopyo-25 Radar Pod
  • 2x Drop Tanks (800 Liters each)

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.
