Mi-24 and Mi-28 attack helicopters
Two new gunships with a ground-facing autocannon. They come with a range of hardpoints - unguided rockets, Vikhr ATGMs, Igla - mounted through the loadout editor.

New class - ground attack aircraft: Su-25
The main trick is low-altitude flight: the Su-25 slips under the long-range SAM envelope and reaches the target unnoticed. New ordnance - FAB-250Sh and FAB-500Sh: droppable without climbing.

Interceptor drones: P1SUN and Yolka
Stationary-mobile counter-drone cover: the kamikaze interceptor automatically takes down enemy drones inside its zone. P1SUN for Ukraine, Yolka for Russia.

F-16 and Su-30SM fighters
Multirole air-superiority fighters - one per side.

Electronic warfare systems
Tigr-based for Russia, Kozak-based for Ukraine.
⚠️ Watch out: EW jams friendly targets as well as enemy ones. There's a chance of hijacking control of an enemy drone.

Changes
Helicopter mechanics reworked: every helicopter can now drop to ultra-low altitude - this makes them immune to long-range SAMs, but extremely vulnerable to everything else.
Tunguska no longer wastes cannon rounds on a target its missile is already flying toward.
Tunguska and Gepard now have radar.

Rebalance
Kh-32 rebalance.
