Su-27 - one of the best combat aircraft in the world. Part of 4. In service today
The Su-30 series, based on the Su-27, is designed for long flights. Su-30 aircraft are capable of conducting air combat both in a group and alone. Su-30 is effective when used as a command post. It is equipped with the latest satellite communications system and navigation system. The equipment installed on it makes it possible to control the air situation during the battle. The Su-30 is armed with a 30-mm cannon and discharged weapons weighing about 8 tons. This combat aircraft is also capable of carrying different types of missiles.
The Sukhoi OKB has a multipurpose fourth-generation fighter-bomber Su-37 developed by designers. This aircraft is able to strike at ground targets regardless of the time of day, as well as to conduct air combat on the distant approaches to the borders of the state. It can also be used as an interceptor for reconnaissance flights. Su-37 has the latest weapons and electronic equipment. It has an increased level of vitality. He is able to act near the ground, which reduces the likelihood of his detection by the enemy’s technical means.
Another aircraft of the Su-Su-30MKI family. Its main purpose is a long-range interceptor and command aircraft for group operations. It has a system of refueling in the air. It has a unique maneuverability and good take-off and landing capabilities. There are no flight restrictions on the angle of attack. Engines with asymmetrically deflected nozzles, which allows you to adjust the direction of the thrust vector. It has the latest onboard electronic equipment. The aircraft was developed by request of a foreign buyer.
The pride of Russia are its aerobatic teams. The group "Russian Vityazi" is part of the display center of aircraft them. N.N. Kozhedub is the only unit in the world that performs group aerobatics on heavy fighters. Aerobatic team "Rus" was formed on the basis of the Vyazma Aviation Club in 1987 year. The flights of the Strizhi aerobatic team are distinguished by the execution of a large number of complex figures performed on combat vehicles of the Su family.
But the development of aviation technology continues. Experts believe that the Su-35 fighter developed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau is a fundamentally new combat aircraft. It has modern onboard equipment, a radar station of a new generation. It has the possibility of long-range target detection and the ability to fire simultaneously more than three dozen targets. It has the most powerful thrust vectoring engines installed. Su-35 equipped with modern weapons.
The first flight of the PAK FA took place on 29 on January 2010 in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. The T-50 multipurpose fighter meets all possible requirements: it is easy to control, cheap to manufacture and maintain, quickly gains supersonic speed without the use of afterburner, has excellent maneuverability (even at high overloads), it has the best electronic equipment installed, it is hardly noticeable for technical means of the enemy.
For all the years of work and development of the newest models of military aviation technology, the specialists of the Sukhoi design bureau have managed not only to transfer to the armament of the army excellent combat aircraft, but also to retain qualified engineering and personnel, as well as to modernize the entire production.
