davemania Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 I am pretty sure its the Su-27 Naval version, if theres a canard there which i can't see, than it might be the Su-33. Its hard to tell from that shot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MxxCon Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 it's not Su-33 picture a bove doesn't have small front wings like this one http://www.aeronautics.ru/archive/vvs/plan...es/su33_001.jpg it's Su-27LMK CCV (Lyotno-Modeliruyushchy Kompleks: flight simulation complex) conversion of production aircraft 2405 with FADEC and side-stick, and fitted with spin-recovery rockets, tested subsequently with axisymmetric nozzle on starboard tailpipe. Trials at Zhukovsky test centre, under direction of TsIAM and Saturn/Lyulka OKB, began 1990. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poind Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Lemme guess. It's actually a Chinese-built plane. (?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davemania Posted November 22, 2003 Share Posted November 22, 2003 Lemme guess. It's actually a Chinese-built plane. (?) Half right. Russian design but the Chinese reached an agreement with the Russians to produce up to 200 of these Jets in China Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
