Select air-to-ground mode by pressing the [7] key. Select the desired bomb by pressing the [D] key.
Confirm the selected bomb type on the HUD. To detect and identify targets, you must turn on the
"Shkval" TV targeting system by pressing the [O] key, or the "Mercury" system by pressing the
[RCtrl-O] key. Search for your target by moving the scan zone center with the [;], [,], [.], [/]
keys. Upon target acquisition, ground-stabilize the sensor by pressing the [Enter] key. For positive
target identification you can change the sensor’s magnification level by pressing the [=] (zoom in)
and [-] (zoom out) keys.
Step 2
To lock a target, you need to manually set a specified size (also known as "target base") of the target
correctly. By default, the target specified size is 10 m. It is recommended to use the following target
base values:
Personnel and minor structures – 5 m.
Cars and armored vehicles – 10 m.
Tactical aircraft and helicopters – 20 m.
Transport and strategic aircraft – 30-60 m.
Buildings – 20-60 m.
Ships – 60 m.
The "Shkval" targeting system will lock on to the nearest object within the acquisition frame that has
dimensions comparable with the set target size. If the incorrect object is locked, move the acquisition
frame to the correct target with the [;], [,], [.], [/] keys.
When a target is locked, an "AC" message will appear on the TV monitor – auto-tracking.
Step 3
Range to target is indicated by the range scale displayed on the HUD. When the maximum launch
range is reached and the "LA" message appears, release the weapon by pressing the weapon release
button on your joystick or by pressing the [Space] key on your keyboard.
After release/launch, you can immediately begin another task.
Note that it is impossible to deliver TV-guided weapons in poor visibility conditions and at night; they
only work in the visible light spectrum and are influenced by all the limitations associated with
daytime TV-devices. To lock a target, the target must be illuminated by a natural or artificial light
source.
Laser Designation Missiles
The Su-25T can use the Kh-29L and Kh-25ML laser designation homing missiles. The Kh-29L and Kh-
25ML were designed to destroy buried command centers, control centers, reinforced concrete
shelters and structures, anti-aircraft artillery positions, artillery, and other protected targets.
The delivery procedure for such weapons is as follows:
