SUKHOI SU-9

962 FULMINISKIJ  2.3 years ago

The sukhoi su-9, the forgotten 1st generation fighter jet, it meant to be the best successor for the old Su-7 and MIG-15 but after few years its all forgotten, but not for me!!!It always remains my favourite 1st generation fighter jet after the MIG-15 and I'll never forget him.So this aircraft it's very very VERY fast, so fast that at the landing you'll need to use his powerfull SOVIET brakes because it doesn't have any parachute!!! So there a switch called "BRK", those are the strong SOVIET brakes.So that it for now but theres coming soon a very special aircraft...So see ya later.
