Vahe David Demirjian, e-mail, 07.10.2021 18:09 The Soviets may have used a captured Me 262 as the basis for both the Su-9 and Su-11, because the Su-11's fuselage was narrower than that of the Me 262. I remember that the Nakajima Kikka was also superficially similar to the Me 262 but differed in having a squared-off vertical stabilizer and was lighter.

Vahe David Demirjian, e-mail, 07.10.2021 18:04 The Su-11, like the Su-9, had straight wings like the MiG-9 and Yak-15. Despite using native Soviet jet engines rather than captured German jet engines, the Su-11 was a technological dead end because, like the Su-9, it was a slowpoke compared to the MiG-15.
