Macedonia bought four former Ukrainian air Force Sukhoi Su-25 Frogfoots. Three Frogfoot-A's (121 / 122 / 123) and one Su-25UB Frogfoot-B for use during the Albanian insurgency in 2001. They were all WFU by 2004 and stored at Petrovec AB / Skopje IAP. Somewhere during 2022/3 they were donated to Ukraine.

Kazachstan Sukhoi Su-25 Frogfoot-A (04 YELLOW) of the Sil Vozdushnoy Oborony Respubliki Kazakhstan based at 602nd AB Chimkent is taking off to go home after KADEX 2012.

Although photographed during Anatolian Eagle 2023-2, it looks like if this Frogfoot was not part of this exercise, but part of an upgrade program currently run in Turkey. This Su-25 has some sensors applied to the tail of the aircraft with silver speed tape and it also flies with two orange KGK-83 precision guided bombs.

On the static of Paris Le Bourget 1989, manufacturer Sukhoi brought this Su-25 to the sales show with the hope for international orders. The type made its first flight in 1975 and currently over 1,000 Su-25s were built and delivered to over twenty air forces. This one is a test and development prototype with the manufacturer's designation T8-15 and the code 15 blue. It was used for the testing of the new R195 engine. However, for the Paris Air Show this was replaced by a standard R95Sh engine because the R195 was still secret, and the code was changed to 301 blue which actually was the Le Bourget exhibit code. In 1990 it was converted to a Su-25BM prototype (Sukhoi designation (T8BM-2).

Moving out on the flight line, showing its 41 mission marks on the nose.

Taxiing out for another exercise mission, this time fitted with external tanks on the centre pylons of each wing. The nose shows 37 red eight-pointed stars as mission marks.

Taking off from Konya's runway 01R for a 26-minute sortie to the neighbouring range. This Sukhoi participated in Anatolian Eagle exactly one year earlier as well.

Thirtythree blue and a sister aircraft (09 blue) were the highlights of this years Anatolian Eagle exercise. The two Frogfoots are assigned to the Su-25 Eskadrilya, based at Kyurdamir air base, west from the capital Baku (Azerbaijan). The construction number of 33 blue remains unknown.

Zero nine blue and a sister aircraft (33 blue) were the highlights of this years Anatolian Eagle exercise. The two Frogfoots are assigned to the Su-25 Eskadrilya, based at Kyurdamir air base, west from the capital Baku (Azerbaijan). 09 blue carried 37 combat mission marks on the left side of the nose, most probably acquired during the Nagorno Karabakh 2020 war.

Two Azerbaijan AF SU-25 based at Kürdəmir AB deployed to Konya to take part in exercise AE2022 for the 2nd time after 2021. The other airframe was 09 blue.

The Azerbaijan AF started to send fighter jets to TurAz (Turkey-Azerbaijan) Falcon exercises in 2016. Then in 2021, it also started to participate in the multinational Anatolian Eagle exercise, by sending a small contingent of MiG-29 and / or SU-25 jets to Konya. Very little is known about the Azerbaijan AF SU-25 fleet, believed to consist of some 40 aircraft based at Kürdəmir AB. Note the red dots on the fuselage, indicating this airframe has seen combat at one point.

This Frogfoot belonged to the 368 ShAP at Demmin-Tutow (East Germany) and was captured at Templin where it refuelled before heading home to mother Russia.
