My upgrades were : flaps in extended position, opened gun cover and special jamming pod SPS-141. The Czech Su-7BKL flew in silver, two and three – tone camos. I chose three tone camo after using of 30 mm gun, because I wanted to have the aircraft returning from the shooting area. Notice, that we used one gun only to protect the jamming pod on the other side. The duty of this type was ended after usage of the ejection seat caused by the engine failure shortly after take-off in 1989. Su-7s were subsequently substituted by Su-22M4s.
