| In 1965, the Soviet government instructed the Sukhoi design bureau to begin design studies of a new variable-geometry strike aircraft in the same class as the General Dynamics F- 111. One criteria was that the new aircraft must be able to fly at very low level in order to penetrate increasingly effective air defence systems. The resulting aircraft, the Su-24, first flew in 1970, and deliveries of the first
production version, the 'Fencer-A', began in 1974. Several variants were produced, culminating in the Su-24M 'Fencer-D', which entered service in 1986. This variant has in-flight refuelling equipment, upgraded nav/attack systems, and laser/TV designators. The Su-24MR is a tactical reconnaissance version. The Su-24 is known to NATO by the reporting name 'Fencer'.

| RickU, e-mail, 04.07.2023 17:16 Russian copy of a Tornado? The SU-19 /SU-24 first flew years before the Panavia Tornado. How could it be copy? The only similarity is they both variable geometry wings. So tired of reading comments on here made by ignorant people of this is a copy of this and that is a copy of that. Especially when the aircraft look completely different. reply | | Timothy Potter, e-mail, 23.03.2018 13:41 Soviet copy of the Tornado but powered by 8 nuclear jets instead of rockets. reply | | REDSOUN, e-mail, 23.04.2014 12:20 REDSOUN TYRES Having started as a Company catering to the Aerospace industry, we have now emerged as a Trusted Name for Aircraft Tyres.
