Photo Comment

This Su-25 was nicknamed Frogger and its main role was as a tankbuster hence the frog hammering the tank on the tail. After the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, the Czech Republic acquired twenty-four Su-25Ks and one Su-25UBK. In December 2000, the Czech Su-25s were retired from service.
