Sukhoi: “How many hard points do you need, comrade?”

UAF: “All of them, of course.”

Sukhoi: “But the plane, it must fly, no?”

UAF: “Add two more. We will see. If it does not fly, take them off. If it does, add two more. Don’t worry, we will fly low.”

That photo does a good job of illustrating why the A-10 has its engines above the fuselage. The Su-24 has proven susceptible to MANPADS over eastern Ukraine.
