31.For this run, well switch to Programmed Point Tracking mode, which is enabled automatically when the laser is active and guns pods are selected.
In this mode, the guns will automatically stay fixed to the aimed point. If we fly the aircraft carefully without inducing any roll, the entire burst will land in one spot.

K fully loaded
3/4 75% remaining
1/2 50% remaining

40.Running in on target
For this run, we will use the Shkval electro-optical targeting system to aim the gun pods. The guns vertical position will be controlled by the WCS to stay on the Shkval aim point.
41.Activate the Shkval system by pressing O.
42.Search for and designate the target by either ground stabilizing over the target area (indicated by КС on the TV monitor) or actually locking the target (indicated by АС on the TV monitor).
43.Enage the autopilot by pressing A or LALT + 6. The SAU-8 flight control system will now fly the plane directly toward the target.
44.Activate the laser.
As you can see, the SPPU pods are automatically tracking the target in the vertical plane. Combined with the autopilot, targeting is completely automatic in both horizontal and vertical planes. All that is left for us to do is press the trigger once the LA (Launch Authorized) cue is displayed.
45.Press and hold the trigger until the attack is complete.
46.Press LALT + 9 to disengage the autopilot.
47.As you can see, the Su-25T is armed with a wide array of effective gun solutions and gun employment options that allow it to engage many types of ground targets.
