  • As the 1970s drew to a close amid the tensions of the Cold War, the emergence of the Sukhoi Su-27 Flanker marked a new frontier for technological supremacy in the skies. Previously unrivaled, the United States Air Force and its fleet of advanced F-15 and F-16 fighters now faced a formidable challenger from behind the Iron Curtain. Engineered specifically to disrupt American air superiority, the Su-27 was one of the Soviet Union’s premier aerospace achievements.
    This aircraft was not just a response but a bold statement in aerospace engineering, crafted to tilt the balance of power in the skies. With its sleek, streamlined design, the Su-27 showcased the pinnacle of Soviet technology with state-of-the-art aerodynamics and avionics.
    Pilots around the world revered the Su-27 for its exceptional agility and robust power, making it a respected ally and a feared adversary in equal measure. Capable of carrying a wide array of weaponry, the Su-27 excelled in a variety of combat roles. Its ability to perform highly demanding aerial maneuvers, such as the infamous Pugachev’s Cobra, demonstrated its superiority in close-quarter combat and its prowess in the art of dogfighting.
    From its initial takeoff to its vital role in modern air forces across the globe, the Su-27 Flanker has not only proven its worth in numerous air combat scenarios but also paved the way for a new generation of fighters.

    What made the su-27 so special to was its upgrade to the su-37 flanker with cunards and thrust vectoring nozzles
    Sukoi was definitely a upgrade to the migs
    Besides the mig 1.44
    East vs West always trying to outclass each other
    🕊️ Of ✌️

    They tell the difference between a Su-27 and a Mig-29? A completely different jet from a different company

    How many dogfights ? So how many kills for the Su-27 ? Looks great on paper but how does it perform in the real world ? How does it compare to the F-15 ?

      Unless they go up against each other in combat we won't know which is better. On paper they are too close to say.

    the SU-33 was only built in 24 aircraft's, the SU-37 was only a technology demonstrator.Btw, the F-15 can NOT fly mach 2 without afterburner. there is no aircraft worldwide that can reach this speed without afterburner.
