Lifenews, via Twitter:

article (in Russian) about the surviving navigator’s experience — they found him using his uniform’s homing beacon —

The navigator of the Su-24 after landing day hiding in the woods Syria
. . . after landing, he hid until night in a thicket, having gone six kilometers inland, and discovery was possible thanks to the testimony of the beacon.
