Russia has not confirmed how many Su-25UB / UBM aircraft it will buy under the 2011-20 state rearmament programme.
If the Su-25UBM production begins, they will primarily be used for training Su-25SM pilots of the Russian Air Force, according to RIA Novosti.
The Su-25UBM will be fitted with advanced radio-electronic equipment and high-precision weapons to hit targets in short-range dogfights and targets located at a distance of 20km.
