In an addendum, the author hints at another mysterious fact.

In publications basing on Janes, the maximum altitude of the SU-25 often was listed with around 10670 m - in 1984. Since then, the plane and its engines were repeatedly improved. Wikipedia, the German as well as the English site, listed the altitude at "around 10000 meters" until early July 2014.

Then over night, early July 2014, that entry was changed and now shows "7000m" only.
