Western analysts estimated the number of Su-25s in the Russian Aerospace Forces at 200 aircraft, meaning there will be no problems with carriers.

It is known that "Banderol" uses GLONASS/GPS orientation for guidance, protected by a powerful Russian 8-channel antenna with a controlled beam pattern "Kometa".

Presumably, "Banderol" is equipped with a Swiwin SW800Pro turbofan engine manufactured in China. The launch range is estimated at 500 km, and the total mass of the warhead is about 150 kg.
