History
The need to replace outdated S-2 fighters was obvious in the early 1970s. The team of engineers of the Vinnytsia Aviation Design Bureau received an order to create a supersonic fighter for Air Force.
In 1974, the development of a new fighter began and continued until the fall of 1981. In the same year, a model of the plane was made. In the summer of 1983, an experimental model of the aircraft was made, and tests were conducted in the fall of the same year.
With a creak, the plane passed the test and V.A. received an order for a series of 50 aircraft, but only 32 was built.
