MiG-21bis belonging to the 115th 'Orsha' Order of Kutuzov and Aleksandr Nevskiy Guards Fighter Aviation Regiment, originally based in Kolkaty, Turkestan Military District. This skin is based on aircraft deployed to Afghanistan, as part of the 40th Army, and uses dynamic numbering.

After more than seven years of fighting, Mujahideen resistance doesn't weaken. In fact, with direct support from the USA and Pakistan, it only gets stronger. Soviets decide to raise the bar and attack a large Mujahideen training camp in Pakistani territory.
This mission is based on a historic mission flown by Su-25 pilots taking off from Bagram airbase, imitating a flight profile of a transport airplane landing at Jalalabad and then proceeding toward their target at ultra low altitude. Pakistani F-16s didn't respond in time, will this outcome be repeated in this reenactment?

Seven years after the beginning of the Soviet intervention in Afghanistan, the end is nowhere in sight. In fact, things got much worse for the Soviets after CIA started to supply Mujahideen forces with Stinger surface to air missiles. Soviet aircraft losses started to mount. But, intelligence service was able to learn about a Stinger training camp location and Su-25s are quickly dispatched to strike it with laser guided missiles.

We join 200th Independent Attack Squadron, the first Su-25 operational unit to deploy to Afghanistan. The conflict is still in the early stage so Mujahedeen air defenses are light, but your mission is very important - destruction of two bunkers that harass Soviet supply convoys in Kandahar region.
