The Indonesian Air Force (Tentara Nasional Indonesia Angkatan Udara - TNI-AU) purchased several Su-27 family aircraft from Russia, Su-27SK, Su-27SKM, Su-30Mk and Su-30MK2. Between 2003 and 2013 sixteen Flankers were received by Skadron Udara11 (11 Squadron) at the Iswahyudi AB. Of the sixteen aircraft two were Su-27SKs with serials TS-2701 with code 01 and TS-02 with code 02. The Su-27SKs were modified from dedicated air-superiority fighters to multi-role fighter and attack aircraft. Part of the payment for these aircraft was completed using Indonesian palm oil. Designed by the Soviet Union to challenge the superiority of fourth generation US fighters such as the F-15 Eagle, the Su-27 was first flown on May 20, 1977. This one seat Mach-2 fighter had the Soviet Union's first operational fly-by-wire system. The aircraft is very large compared to the MiG-29, its closest Soviet counterpart, but it is built with a high percentage of titanium, which helps minimize its weight. It is exceptionally agile and is perhaps most famous for its "Cobra" maneuver, which is a short, sustained level flight at a 120 degree angle of attack, often performed at air shows. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
