| Further development of the Su-27. The first prototype built from
an Su-30 tandem
two-seat trainer reconfigured with a side-by-side seated cockpit made its
maiden flight on April 13, 1990. The
second prototype, completely built from the ground up, took to the air
on December 18, 1993.
The most obvious modification of the new strike "Flanker" is the widened,
flatter forward fuselage. In the nose is a new multi-mode phased-array
radar with terrain-following and terrain-avoidance for low-level attack.
In the larger rear tail-boom is a defensive rearward radar that
monitors enemy fighter activity behind the aircraft, and as needed, direct
missiles at the targets.

It looks pretty tight and controls ok too. reply | Ian Blackwolf, e-mail, 25.03.2010 06:13 Likley the closest anyone will come to putting something similar to the TSR.2 into real service. I don't count the F-111 (deathtrap and over-priced) or the Su-24 (bandwagon swingwings). reply | Ian Cognito, 25.09.2009 18:55 like the F-111 and F-117. There was a TV show called 10 Best. The 10th best fighter was F-117. The 10th best strike aircraft was the F-15C. Confusing. reply |
| Dave B, 25.09.2009 12:12 NATO reporting name is 'Fullback' which is odd as this aircraft is essentially a bomber although the Su-24 Fencer and Su-25 Frogfoot have also been named with fighter designations. reply | Karl, 25.02.2009 03:39 The NATO code name for this plane is "Platypus" after it"s nose. reply | Iwan, e-mail, 22.02.2009 13:34 look at the front side. its look like simpanse ? I love this cute bird. reply | Bigismall, e-mail, 02.04.2008 12:40 Very nice design. I love this nose. reply | Josh, e-mail, 23.09.2007 10:20 Nice design and I love the way the stick a bog and a kitchen behind the cockpit! reply |
