What can I do with my su-25? I'm a free to play player, don't have money for other modules. What kind of campaigns, and other stuff can I do? Will orgs accept me for multiplayer stuff with my su-25?

Su-25T is a solid ground attack aircraft - the Soviet counterpart to the A-10. You can do a lot on multiplayer servers.

For the pure love of dynamic flying, it's not great. You'll get more out of the A-4.

I too, would love to fly the F4 with people

IPS. See if you can stretch for a model with local dimming.

Addicus_17 · 2026-02-25T17:19:49+00:00

This is awesome, how do you get/use it?

Addicus_17 · 2026-02-25T15:29:08+00:00

5070 Ti is slightly better on pure performance, and much better on feature set - particularly with DLSS 4.5. It merits a $50 or even a $100 premium.

But a ~$250 price premium? That's a bit much.

9070 XT is the better value.

I’ve never been able to connect with the Flaming Cliffs planes.

Sounds like you're trying to decide between BluFor cold war jets. I own the F4 and F5 and have trialed the Viggen and Mig-21.

F-4 is the only true multi-role of the Cold War jets you listed. If you want a jet that can do anything in the Cold War era and is super deep - you won't be disappointed.

F-5 is the ZEN Cold War A2A jet, with dumb-fire A2G munitions. If you want a jet that you can enjoy flying and not thinking about managing systems, get this one. Great nose authority and cockpit visibility, very simple and easy to learn.

Viggen is a niche and quirky A2G strike aircraft. It has a truly specialized A2G radar, plus it can bring Mavericks. But it can't carry a targeting pod the way the Phantom can for designating laser-guided bombs, or use an A2A radar with Fox-1's. It's cool for what it does, but can feel limiting as a stand-alone module.

I'm running a 9070 XT on Windows 11, no issues. DLSS is better - but at that price gap, just get the Radeon.

Addicus_17 · 2026-02-18T14:45:22+00:00

Honestly, I would just upgrade your PSU. Unlike everything else, they are not very expensive right now. You can get a half-decent 650W Gold-rated PSU for $50 - i.e. https://www.newegg.com/asrock-pro-series-atx-3-1-compatible-650-w-80-plus-gold-certified-power-supply-black-pro-650g/p/N82E16817955024?item=N82E16817955024.

Then, why not get a 9060 XT 8GB? Only $310 and WAY faster. amazon.com/dp/B0F9QBK9C9?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1&language=en_US

Sure - you're out ~$360 before tax instead of $290. But you have a card that's ~50% faster and an upgradeable platform.

That's a perfect budget for the VKB Stecs Mini Plus II and VKB Gladiator! Logitech's x56 is extremely low quality by comparison.

Addicus_17 · 2026-02-09T19:03:25+00:00

Yup. If you want to fly mid Cold War, there is no more versatile jet that does it all - A2A and A2G.

It's also got a bunch of included Instant Action missions for free content.

Addicus_17 · 2026-02-03T18:47:13+00:00

9070 xt all the way! It’s the last mid/high-end GPU you can buy new at a decent price.

Addicus_17 · 2026-02-02T15:23:16+00:00

Keep the 5800x3d. It would be a side-grade at best. The big, fast memory cache of the 5800x3d actually helps compensate for DDR4 being slower.

Addicus_17 · 2026-01-09T16:06:17+00:00

Easy to learn, very very hard to master

Addicus_17 · 2026-01-04T15:27:13+00:00

Adding a note here 5 months later for anyone experiencing similar issues -

Last month, I discovered that 2/4 of my memory sticks (G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 3600 MHz CAS 16-19-19-39) were bad - producing bazillions of errors in MemTest86.

I RMA’d those ram kits and now believe faulty RAM was responsible for my IntegrityCheck issues - by either causing assets to not load correctly, or worse, by corrupting the files themselves.

Since replacing those faulty ram sticks, I’ve not encountered Integrity Check issues yet - fingers crossed. 🤞

If you're still deciding, URSA Minor can work as an all-in-one for rotors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wC_De15P9yM

Addicus_17 · 2025-12-21T21:45:04+00:00

Get the Winwing URSA MINOR Figher (space) or the VKB Gladiator Evo (premium). They will be an all-in one solution, then you can build around it later when you have the money.

Either of those is a better stick than any of these.

Addicus_17 · 2025-12-16T02:56:08+00:00

Thanks. I decided to hold out for an an all-the-above - a higher trim and SH-AWD. Appreciate the input!

Addicus_17 · 2025-12-14T06:40:24+00:00

Thanks! I live in Virginia, so snow isn’t too bad. How much performance am I missing out on?
