President-S countermeasures system

Hi, is this modelled in the game ?

It COULD drastically reduce stinger's effectiveness against russian helos and low altitude fixed wing aircrafts making the lack of robust ground AA on the US side even more acute .

I think it'd cut both ways considering the state of western counter measures suites.  I imagine it's always somewhat abstracted in.

I know from gameplay experience that Russia/Ukrainian/American helicopters and planes do have some kind of self-defense equipment modelled in. For example, during a short match 3 Ukrainian MANPADS were fired at my Kamov gunship helicopter  and it wasn't destroyed. IIRC it also displays some attitude status info in the unit card but I cannot remember what exactly it wrote. :/ 

  So yeah, though it might not exactly be the President-S.

Ya the status is evading. Ive seen F15s and NATO aircraft doing this as well.

I dont think it means anything russian centric rather i think its flares and or chaff and maybe the ecm jammer on.

A-10C has equipment equivalent to above mentioned President-S. It is called AN/AAR-47 MWS. It is also used on transport aircraft (I've heard about C-17 and Ospreys), but I don't know the details.
