Su-15TM Flagon F

70.3k Zaychik  2.7 years ago


The Sukhoi Su-15 (NATO reporting name: Flagon) is a twinjet supersonic interceptor aircraft developed by the Soviet Union. It entered service in 1965 and remained one of the front-line designs into the 1990s. The Su-15 was designed to replace the Sukhoi Su-11 and Sukhoi Su-9, which were becoming obsolete as NATO introduced newer and more capable strategic bombers.
Recognizing the limitations of the earlier Su-9 and Su-11 in intercepting the new Boeing B-52 Stratofortress, particularly in terms of radar and aircraft performance, the Sukhoi OKB quickly began the development of a heavily revised and more capable aircraft. A variety of development aircraft evolved, including the Sukhoi T-49, which shared the fuselage of the Su-9 (including its single engine), but used cheek-mounted intakes to leave the nose clear for a large radome for the RP-22 Oryol-D ("Eagle") radar (NATO "Skip Spin"), and the T-5, essentially a heavily modified Su-11 with a widened rear fuselage containing two Tumansky R-11 engines.

It took 29 hours, 10 flight test and 5 sample to make this plane especially for the manuver test
But it worth for a simple low part replica that can also be use as AI

•Control
VTOL: flaps
Trim: Trim
AG1: chute
•weaponry
2x gun pod 20mm
2x R-60
2x K-8M
•Note
-The flaps is pretty "strong" so use it wisely
-trim max for better flight, don't use the flaps
-take off is pretty slow just like old bois
-all 4 missile were highly manuver able, K-8M have a ignition delay
