Shenyang J-11BG Flanker-L | | 12" | | 8" |
The greatly improved version of the Su-27, the J-11B entered service in 2000 with more composite materials, modern avionics, a better fire control system and new turbofan-10B engines. Most J-11B nose cones are black but the new J-11BG wears a grayish-white cone. It is thought that there is a new active phased array radar that can detect targets at a greater range and angle. The J-11BG can be armed with the Thunderbolt 10 and 15 missiles as well as PL-15 long-range Air To Air missiles. 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 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
