The Sukhoi Su 27 (NATO Reporting name : Flanker) is a Soviet-origin twin-engine supermaneuverable fighter aircraft designed by Sukhoi and currently being used by the Russian Air Force and other countries. The aircraft was inteded to compete with America's fourth generation fighters such as the Grumman F-14 Tomcat and McDonell Douglas F-15 Eagle. The aircraft is designed for air superiority, and subsequent variants are able to perform almost all aerial warfare operations. It had entered service 1985 by the Soviet Air Force, its primary role was long range air defence against American bombers, protecting the Soviet coast from aircraft carriers and escorting heavy Soviet bombers such as the Tupolev Tu-95, Tu-22M, and Tu-160.

The aircraft would later have variants such as the Sukhoi Su 30 and 35 and later its Chinese counterparts such as the Shenyang J-11 and has a same design from the Mikoyan MiG 29 as its complement

Because of its supermaneuverability, it has been known widely to do the Pugachev's Cobra maneuver

The aircraft is powered by two Saturn AL-31 afterburning turbofan engines, and can reach a maximum speed of 2,500 km/h. Armed with one Gryazev-Shipunov GSh-30-1, ten external pylons, and most is arming itself with medium range R-73 (AA-10 Alamo) air-to-air missiles with two R-73s (AA-11 Archer) at each primary wing (although can be armed with rockets, rocket pods, or bombs).

GUIDES :

AG-1 = To activate air-to-air on primary wings

AG-2 = To activate the 3 air-to-air missiles underneath the aircraft

AG-3 = To activate the second row of 3 air-to-air to missiles underneath the aircraft

Note : This is the hardest aircraft I have made so far because of its design. Second you can modify the weapons or attach other weapons on the aircraft.

BTW, enjoy the aircraft ;)
