Su-22 Fitter "A Plane That Bites Back"


The Su-22 Fitter is an attack aircraft that was introduced into service in August 1966. While lacking in speed its rugged construction gives the Su-22 exceptional durability. Armed with a powerful close-range armament of internal cannons, a high capacity load out of rockets, and four fast-to-lock short range missiles, the Su-22 is capable of impressive damage at close range attacks. With its special swing wings folded, the Su-22 can accelerate quickly. With four weapons systems and sluggish maneuverability, the Su-22 can be challenging to fly. Pilots skilled to master its close range weapons can find the Su-22 deadly in dog fights and head-on attacks. With its wings folded, it can maintain speed to be effective in Air Superiority.
