General Background
The Su-27S (NATO reporting name – Flanker) is a single-seat highly-maneuverable
fighter aircraft built by Sukhoi Design Breau as the Soviet response to the U.S. F-14 and
F-15 and entered service in 1985. The primary role of the Su-27 was to provide defense
against American bombers, USN ships and provide Soviet bomber escorts. There have
been many improvements over the years resulting in numerous variants of the Su-27.
The export variant, the Su-27SK was sold to China and eventually developed into the
license-built Shenyang J-11.
