Sukhoi SU-27 is a two-engine air supremacy fighter plane designed by Sukhoi. This is a direct competitor for the large United States fourth-generation fighter aircraft, such as the Groom F-14 Tomcat and F-15 Eagle. Sukhoi SU-27 was designed for air superiority missions and later variants are capable of operating almost all air war campaigns. This was made with Mikoyan MiG-29 as its supplement.

The Sukhoi SU-27 Design
The original design of Sukhoi SU-27 is aerodynamic as Mig-29 But this is quite big. Sukhoi SU-27 is also an example of a tail delta wing configuration. Based on the experience of Sukhoi Ok with the T4 Bomber project, Sukhoi was the first operational flight-by-wire control system of Soviet Union in Su-27. In Airshow, the aircraft has demonstrated its mobility with Cobra (Pagchev's cobra) or a slow downturn.
Sukhoi SU-27 Development
In 1969, the Soviet Union learned from the American Air Force's "F-X" program. Under this program, the United States created aircraft such as the F-15 Eagle. The leaders of the Soviet Union soon realized that the current American fighter aircraft has been far ahead of the technological break from the Soviet fighter aircraft. In response, the Soviet General Staff expressed the need to develop a potentially high-tech aircraft. Aircraft specifications were highly ambitious, which included missions, good small area performance, excellent agility, Mac 2+ speed, and heavy weapons for long periods.
