1,619 LockheedMartinAerospace  7.2 years ago

The Sukhoi Su-27 is a twin-engine supermaneuverable fighter aircraft designed by Sukhoi. It was intended as a direct competitor for the large United States fourth-generation fighters such as the Grumman F-14 Tomcat and F-15 Eagle, with 3,530-kilometre range, heavy aircraft ordnance, sophisticated avionics and high maneuverability. The Su-27 was designed for air superiority missions, and subsequent variants are able to perform almost all aerial warfare operations. It was designed with the Mikoyan MiG-29 as its complement.

How to do Pugachev's Cobra -- bob up and down once or twice, then pitch up. Stop pitching up when it hits 30 degrees AoA. Then, pitch down carefully so you won't overshoot the 0 degree mark.

How to do Kulbit Maneuver -- Same procedure, except, continue to pitch until 90 degrees. Then pitch down so you wont overshoot 0 degrees.

    @mikoyanster ??? You want a Gen 4+ fighter have supercruise? I had the stability like so so I could perform supermaneuverability feats. And it's "ON the other hand."

    You want to modify it?

    Need more speed, more stability, agility. By the other hand, stabilizers must be semi-symmetric. Fuselage would be improved
