This article has been mentioned by multiple media organizations:

Kelsey Atherton (July 23, 2014). "Could this old warplane really shoot down MH17? A weak theory about a strong plane". Popular Science. On Monday morning, someone from an IP address in Moscow edited the Su-25's Russian Wikipedia page to increase the maximum height the plane can reach by about 10,000 feet.
Leaders (July 26, 2014). "A web of lies: Vladimir Putin's epic deceits have grave consequences for his people and the outside world". Economist. The Russian fiction that a Ukrainian fighter jet had fired the missile ran into the problem that the jet could not fly at the altitude of MH17, so Russian hackers then changed a Wikipedia entry to say that the jets could briefly do so.

Small grammar edit for the SU-25TM variant paragraph. "the container under fuselage" should be changed to " the container under the fuselage" Largelizard (talk) 23:20, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. I changed it to "in an under fuselage container" as I thought that was an improvement. I hope that suits? - Ahunt (talk) 23:23, 11 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
