The Sukhoi Su-27 (NATO
reporting name ‘Flanker’) is a one-seat Mach-2 class jet fighter plane
originally manufactured by the Soviet Union, and designed by the Sukhoi Design
Bureau. It was intended as a direct competitor for the large American fourth
generation fighters, with long 3,530 km range, heavy armament, sophisticated
avionics and high agility. The Su-27 most often flies air superiority missions,
but is able to perform almost all combat operations.
