    No, it is not possible to downgrade the SKU on-the-fly for the Azure VPN Gateway after deployment. You can only upgrade your gateway to a gateway SKU within the same SKU family, and downgrading requires deleting the existing gateway and creating a new one. This process incurs downtime and changes the public IP address assigned to your gateway SKU, even if you specify the same public IP address object used previously.
