The Russian Su-27 Family Of Fighter Jets

- To the West, most of the legendary Soviet aircraft of the Cold War came from the design bureau Mikoyan Gurevitch, which spawned such aircraft as the MiG-15 “Fagot,” MiG-21 “Fishbed,” MiG-25 “Foxbat” and MiG-29 “Fulcrum.” The single best Soviet fighter of the Cold War, however, was Sukhoi’s Su-27 “Flanker.” Intended both to defeat U.S. fighters over central Europe in a NATO-Warsaw Pact conflict and to patrol the airspace of the Soviet Union against U.S. bomber incursions, the Su-27 survived the end of the Cold War to become one of the world’s premier export fighters.
The Flanker emerged as part of the high part of the high-low fighter mix that both the United States and the Soviet Union adopted in the 1970s and 1980s. In the U.S. Air Force this manifested in the F-15 and F-16; in the U.S. Navy, the F-14 and F/A-18. The MiG-29 “Fulcrum” played the light role in the Soviet partnership.
Sukhoi designed the Flanker with the capabilities of the F-15 Eagle firmly in mind, and the aircraft that emerged resembles the fast, heavily armed, long-ranged Eagle in many ways. Whereas the Eagle looks healthy and well-fed, the Flanker has a gaunt, hungry appearance. Although designed as an air superiority aircraft, the Su-27 (much like the Eagle) has proven flexible enough to adapt to interceptor and ground strike roles. Sukhoi has also developed a wide family of variants, specialized for particular missions but retaining overall multirole capabilities.
The Su-27 entered service more slowly than its fourth-generation counterparts in the United States (or the MiG-29, for that matter). A series of disastrous tests bedeviled the program’s early years, with several pilots dying in early versions of the Flanker. As it entered service in the mid-1980s, production problems slowed its transition to front-line status. And of course, the end of the Cold War curtailed the overall production run of the aircraft.
The Su-27’s capabilities are formidable. The Flanker can reach Mach 2.35 with a thrust-to-weight ratio above one (depending on fuel load). It can carry up to eight air-to-air missiles (generally of short to medium range; other variants specialize in Beyond Visual Range combat) or an array of bombs and missiles. In the hands of an experienced pilot, the Su-27 can carry out a bewildering array of maneuvers, many of which have delighted air show audiences across Russia and Europe.
The basic Su-27 frame has proven remarkably flexible. The Russian Air Force has modified most of its existing Flanker fleet with a variety of advanced avionics, improving its air-to-air capacity and also giving it an effective ground attack capability. Several Flanker variants have acquired their own designations, especially on the export side.

The Russian SU-27 Family Of Fighter Jets
Some Correction: Su-37 was flying laboratory, it was never meant to be in serial production. Su-35 is the latest flanker variant.
Didn’t the Su-37 example crash?
not quite right. The Su-27M was the one and same as Su-37. The latter was more of an export designation.
But this Flanker was indeed aimed for serial production in the 90's. But sadly the break-up of Soviet Union and all the mess that followed, the Su-27M never saw daylight. The new Russian Federation was broke and broken. It never attracted any foreign export orders eighter. Besides the Chinese allready had bought the Su-27SK and some 2 crew Su-30MK2 produced by KnAAPO.
A little later India bought the Irkutsk made Su-30MKI.
there existed 6 Su-27M(Su-37) and those was used by Sukhoi for further evaluation and testing.
The Su-27M/37 was then morfed into the Su-35BM prototype which first flew in february 2008. By then it was extensivly improved and the Russian Federation was back on its feet, ordering new fighters. We all know this to be the Su-35S by now, being ordered by several countries as well.
@@Wolfgulfur Yes the one with Bort nr 911 crashed
as he say
su-37 never was serial machine
it is testing platform for avionics of 5th gen planes. later used in su57
I remember when I first discovered this plane as a teenager in the mid '90s. I found a 1/35th scale model kit of it in a hobby shop. I must have stood staring at the box wide-eyed, turning it over in my hands, incredulous at how unbelievably cool this jet was, for a good 15 minutes. That model's still sitting on a shelf behind me as I type this.
Ww2 ww2 w
Weird request but could you do a small video showcasing it?
1/35 that must be huge
4 years ago lol
I always seen those models as a kid, but I never had the money to buy them.
Now, as an adult, I have adult money which means I’ve bought almost all major variations of their beautiful aircraft. All in 1:72
My grandpa used to construct the engines for SU-27. He rose to the assembly workshop chief deputy... if I translate it correctly. Left the bureau in early 90s, when everything turned to utter shit from just shit, that the USSR was. He used to live near the factory, so I spent a lot of time in the vicinity, and never knew, what was going on there. Funny, that this location is one of my favourite in whole Moscow, it's really pretty place, not very far from VDNKh subway station.
I can recall a couple of his stories.
Before the soundproofing was installed in the building, they used to test engines inside, during his break. He played the volleyball outside. Then the tremble started, the whole place was shaking and made it literally impossible to do anything... so, excuse me, no volleyball that day. The noise was heard quite far away actually, including the houses near the factory. Not the most comfortable place to live:D
They used to polish the inside of the round parts using titanium balls and some kind of alcohol based liquid. I guess there was something else, but, welcome to Russia, the alcohol part is the most important here. After the polishing was done, liquids were drained. Now the fun for workers started. The liquid was of unhealthy dirty consistency, the chaps on the factory filtered it through some layers of gauze. After that it turned to still unhealthy yellow. Than, the bravest one tried the damn thing and... surviving the "sampling", gave a positive node to others, with some kind of "good" grunt. Needless to say, my grandpa never drunk that shit, in his eyes you have to be a complete animal to drink such a goo.
He died 1,5 years ago, and I still miss him. He was a scary dad to be around, but the best grandfather you can wish for, loved him to death, and he made a huge influence on me. He was very proud to work with the AL31F engines, and also very proud of knowing Arkhip Lyulka in person, also referred to him with respect by Arkhip Mikhalych. My mom said, that grandpa sometimes walked around the house talking to himself thinking of engines and drawings, which for me is very funny and understanble at the same time.
Well, that's my little connection to this beautiful plane, regardless of any ideologies or warmongering, of which I support none, SU-27 is a brilliant masterpiece of engineering, and a showcase of the beauty of the human mind.
P.S. Brother, your Russian words pronunciation is extremely funny:DDD And video is great as always)
Su-27 jet is freaking gorgeous.
Shrouded In Secrecy agreed
For it's time it is
@@amychan811 still looks gorgeous to this day tbh.
@@LIKWID I mean yea but for in terms of practicality not so much anymore the jet definitely shine at its time but ofc it can still kick some ass if the plane is used by a skilled pilot
Su-27 & MiG-29 = Russia's "Sport Cars of the Skies"
First time I saw a variant of this plane was in ACE COMBAT 4. The Yellow Squadron's SU-37s, beautiful yet terrifying. Fell in love with it instantly.
THEMilkSHAIKH and probably the most capable jet in the game. I'm a huge fan of ace combat too. Is that the one where you fight as squads of 4. The mig-31 squad with advanced long range missles is one of the toughest.where you face the ark bird. Kudos on your game choices.
THEMilkSHAIKH I’m on the last level and I hate trench runs.
Same, remember falling in love with the SU-37... HOT!
now im gonna play ace combat again xD
@@michaeldavison3491 That was Ace Combat 5. The Yellow Squadron is the rival squadron to the player (who flys a solo flight up until the last mission) in Ace Combat 4 and they flew Su-37s.
Sexiest plane ever
Juanlu Lourido I agree!
I prefer Su-57.
Saw both pretty close at MAKS-2017 ^_^
Yes, the last of the 4th gen fighters, today all is clumsy "stealthish" style...
Suddenly 'BOOM' your mama SU-57 appear
REGIS Mk.V Isn’t that the brother of the F-22?
When I was about 7 years old, my dad bought me a model kit for this plane that we slowly peiced together as father and son. Good memories.
Same here, but I made it myself as a kid....it looked like shit (the kit, not the plane). Got two kits at the same time, the other was the Mig 25 Foxbat and it looked like shit too (the kit and the plane).
Pavel Sukhoi - a true genius. Great vid and long overdue.
he died before the su25 could be completed
I know but he laid the foundations for a great company.
Actually you would give most Credit to Michael Simonov. He stepped in and save the T-10 from humiliation. He fixed it into the T-10M known as Su-27
I hear you but there's more to Sukhoi and how it operates than the above plane.
I heard Sukhoi wasn't really the favourite back then during Soviet era, because they were not devout communists. When the Soviet Union collapsed, Russia started preferring Sukhoi over Mikoyan. In recent years, Sukhoi made newer versions of the Su-27, and Su-25, and also started making the Su-57 and civilian transport jets. Now with the coming of the MiG-35, and Mig-41 project, Mig might make a comeback. There's also the new variant of the MiG-31 capable of using the Kinzhal ALBM. Very interesting.
Too beautiful for war
Almost every war vehicle and warship to ever exist is too beautiful for war
Preach on
Roham Pasha Man i love the Russian jets. My country uses Mig-29s. One of my absolute favs.
I love edgy and _thicc_ MiG-31 for it's mad speed long range tankness, but Sukhoi 27/35 fighters family... This design with the whole frame creating lifting power, and these curves... mmmm, I think Su-34 is my favourite.
I absolutely agree.....the Su-27 family of fighters just look gorgeous. The upward canting forward fuselage/canopy sections looks like a Cobra ready to strike. As someone mentioned, it just has beautiful gorgeous curves looking like a true "bird-of-prey". I also love the SU-34. That is just a phenomenal multi-role aircraft. Who else has ever made a medium bomber that is just as maneuverable as a fighter? Overall just brilliant designs.
God what a BEAUTIFUL aircraft. Fast, maneuverable, and stunning to look at.
Aw man I was waiting SO HARD for a shot of the Su34, it's so damn cool-looking. You even mentioned it, more than once! Great video though, 27/27, would flank again.
Personally I'd rate it 34/27 ;)
I'd give a 35/27
37/27?
47/27 😂
I also love the su-34 side by side variant in the blue colours
Su-27 series is one of the best. They really good at the point that Russia can't find new revolutionary design that can replace it.
Even Su-57 is kinda heavily Su-27 design influence.
Khanet Preeteepveruriya gee I wonder why it looks like a s
Sukhoi 🤔 oh yeah, it is Sukhoi.
Yeah XD
"Well... this design work so... no need to risk other design! Let's make it stealth!"
Su27 is like typical landa, if it work, doesn't need to change it lol
I think that Su-57 is looking more like F-22 Raptor than Su-27.
It's Stealth(kinda...) so ever stealth will look like F22 XD
The Russians really built one hell of an aircraft with this one.
pickinthatbanjo it’s because of the vodka.
They really did. I don't think any sane person cannot agree they made the best fighter jet ever.
Unfortunately, now it is a game of stealth and missiles and fighting jets are old news. Certainly when you cannot beat them, beat the game they play right?
not just one.
infinite planes :O
@Idontknowmynamelol 17 Well, they're are western countries who have F-15 and F-16 unworthy of returning to the air due to maintenance... you can't fault the aircraft for the keeper anymore than you can fault a dog for an abusive owner.
Su27 is the f15 eagles hot cousin.
they both hot
To be fair both are amazingly beautiful.
I happen to think the raptor is the best looking fighter ever made. Smooth curves and a design that just looks right.
unknown shut up amerikkan
freedoom dispenser I’m Latino bitch, wtf you gonna do nigga?
good day; going into the SU27 vs mig29 concepts. from my understanding su27 is meant as an offensive fighter where as the mig 29 is meant as a defensive fighter. This differs from american doctrine regarding air superiority. as the su27 is meant for penetration and thus carries the most advanced sensors and EW suites. As russia is so darn large and can be attacked from so many areas, they needed a more numerous, cheaper shorter range fighter for defense. Thus the mig 29 was designed to rely on ground based sensors and weight and cost savings could be realized by limiting its sensors and EW components and maximizing its aerodynamic capabilities.
The mig29 is an interceptor, much like the older F-104 starfighter. It's primary role is as a fighter than can be scrambled rapidly and enter the air quickly.
MIg-29s/35s are smaller and cheaper; Sukhois are bigger - twice the range, carries a lot.
MiG-29 is a fronline air superiority fighter. It is small, cheap, can use unprepared airfields.
Su-27 is multirole heavy fighter. It was designed for convoys, patroling and groundstrikes if it is necessary. It is more expensive, has longer range, more payload and better radar.
this aircraft has essentially become to Russia what the mirage was to france, its a platform aircraft for multiple roles hence the SU27, SU30, SU33, SU35 models basically being an SU27 with different mission roles. great aircraft and extremely versatile and worthy of the red air force
Ah, My first Soviet love.... I had pictures of the "Crane" in my locker in high school.
SteelbeastsCavalry she is a stunning plane
what's the Crane?
grey eminence a western nickname for this jet :)
wtf
What i really like about the design of the Su-27 (and MiG-29) is how if you look at it from the bottom, it doesn't really have a fuselage.
The bottom looks like one big surface interrupted by the intake wents.
The last of the 4th generation, the last "full" plane, today electronic and stealth makes more "clumsy" fighters, the Su-27 is the last luxury of real fighters.
I'd argue that Su-30SM, Su-35, F-15E, and Rafales we're probably will be going to be the last beautiful planes we're going to see, whereas our grandsons in the future will seeing alien like stealth fighters
су30 су35
but Russian always kept their old toys, tank, missile cruiser. In case of emergency, analog weapon system is definitely the answer
Yeah. Clumsy fighters which would dominate these fighters in realistic air combat
@@chungtakhongthocveynnhau9889 I agree the F22 or F35 has way more advanced systems than the su27, still a deadly fighter though.
What an elegant swan... Has always been one of my favorites.
"The aircraft construction is made from aluminium or aluuminim" gotta keep the Americans happy too lol
GriZz _UK lol and Canadians ;-)
And yet it was a Brit in 18 hundreds who suggested the um instead of ium ending. Oh the irony.
That's just Soviet propaganda. In reality they're made of Stalinium
So thing is, when discovered it was called aluminum, but the british spit their tea out and said "harumph, this will not do, it is the only one pronounced this way, lets change it and make fun of americans for calling it the original name" 😂
@@aslamnurfikri7640 You know Staļin is Steelin as in man of steel.
Su-27 is the best fighting aircraft out there if you count in the production cost.
One of the sexiest plane in History, Su 27 series looks really cool, and they are incredible machines.
Su-37 isn't the most recent model. It's technically just a one-off technology demonstrator for the improved flight control system. They pretty much ditched the canards for the production Su-35S to save weight and the thrust vectoring nozzles are already there anyway.
It's also noteworthy that while the airframe design is mature, its sheer size lends itself to immense growth potential as seen through the years. In fact, it can be configured to be compatible with NATO weaponry upon the request of the client(Usually Thales, Saab and Rafael hardware)
Agreed on this. The 37 is by all means just a tech-demonstrator. One of the small reasons the canards were removed for the 35S was because the airframe materials used for it were light enough to offset needing the canards in front for added lift, hence why the canards were removed.
The Su-35S is, for all intents and purposes the definitive model for this jet, Sir Matsimus.
Would also add that Carnards add a little extra drag with its axtra control Autority. So it both Pros and Cons with Carnards.
SU30SM is the newest model. The Russian ministry of defense released a new video of it two weeks ago. ruclips.net/video/hcP-6lHn3fQ/видео.html
The Su-35's radar is also one of the reasons why the canards were removed because of the weight. And probably also, because they wanted the Su-35 to be a bit stealthy, despite not being a real stealth jet(it uses stealthy composites).
India has done that to its SU 30 MKI s
The sukhoi flanker series are my favourite jet series. The silhouette, The manoeuvrability. Just beautiful. I’m glad that this series of aircraft is continuing with the Su30MK, Su35 super flanker and various Chinese derivatives like the J15 and J16.
Matsimus, just a quick correction. The Su-35 is more advanced then the 37, because the terminator was based off of early models of the Su-35. The current Su-35 was upgraded based off of the terminator, meaning it is act more advanced. Also, while this is not confirmed, it is speculated that the Su-35 cockpit interior is classified and the version we see is just out there for the public to see.
The SU 35 is such amazing. I think it is one of the best fighter jet that was ever build.
The Su-27s were also used in the Ethiopian-Eritrean War where they shoot down 4 Eritrean MiG-29s.
I never imagined the plane's frame to be so large till I saw one next to a Mig-29.
Mig 29 is light fighter
Very different with su27 which is heavy fighter
But interestingly, su27 can fly slower than mig29, and more manuverable in slow speed
Still can do some sudden movement / manuever even at almost zero speed
That was US very aware of this su27
Not even f22 can do sudden manuver at near stall speed
The Su-27 are so huge that NATO AESA radars love it.
The Su-27s are my favorite series of aircraft. I honestly like the way they look better than the Su 57.
To everyone who has never had the glorious chance to see one of these in the flesh I can only say i had the chance to sit in one and the overwhelming feeling was one of being sat in a something the size of a double-decker bus with all the sleek beauty of an F1 car. It's like seeing a submarine in the flesh, nothing prepares you for the size of that f--ker.. it's awesome!
In Russia, in the Moscow region, the Max air show is held every two years. There you can sit in the Su-35 and watch the Su-57 aerobatics live. Previously, this event was attended by including the United States, France and Italy. Hello from Russia!
Have you seen that new SU-57? She's quiet and curvey in all the right ways.
And packs a punch as well, ner vod!
She's a pancake with round tail pipes like some 70's retro throwback. Even the F-117 from forever ago had square exhausts.

@@theoonyoutube yes the rear Russia can make better plans than this no other planes have a stupid tail cone in the rear in alone if that stupid drag shoes pop out all the time wartime the chutes being the way
SU-27 is one of my favourite.
When/if ever the type becomes available for surplus civilian sales, I as a yank; would love to have one.
Love me my legacy birds of the USN and USAF, but nothing says sexiness in the air like the Su-27
Tyvern Overlord There are two privately owned su 27s in America right now. They were sold by the US Air Force.
I first saw photos of this plane in a magazine when I was a teenager in the late 80's in Canada. I've always been in love with it.
The Russian Knights were flying these back in 1992. I was fortunate enough to see them in Oregon about 6 months after the Soviet Union dissolved. Only two came to the show, but I have several 35mm photos of them. They also brought an IL-76 for support. I have one pic with an F-16 parked behind it and totally dwarfed by the massive Su-27.
One of the finest and most nimble fighters ever built. The one to take on the F15 and so on. Love the Flanker
From one flanker Lover to another, You've collected some really great footage, Much of which I have never seen before. Thanks much
Su35 is the almost perfect fighter. Brilliant su27 airframe matched to state of the art technology. I can't find a weakness in this
An aircraft of absolutely unrivaled beauty. It's a real shame, such machines only be made for war.
I just like Russian design for some reason from tanks to aircrafts. I just love the round turret design of their tanks though its a shame the Armata change into a edge design. Russian plan always have a sleek and curve in their design and overall shape giving it an elegant feeling while US plane give more of an edge, flat and a "futuristic" feeling i guess ? Not sure how i feel about the US plane design. And while Abrams have it impact, Leclerc and Challenger 2 just look more beautiful.
@@HowIsAsh lol
Yes, russian weapons should be in art museums. They are the pinnacle of industrial design and aesthetics. It's a pity those things are meant to kill human beings en masse.
Such beauty and such power... man, if they had the top end radar systems US fighters have...
H036 Squirrel. Detection range of air targets 400 km. the number of simultaneously tracked targets is 62, with the possibility of targeting 16 targets in air or 4 on land.
Well, correcting some of Su-27 family variant mentioned in the video
not all Su-30 equipped with Thrust Vectoring, most of them don't have it. Some variant that have is the MKI, MKM and SM with the SM being the latest Flanker variant.
the Su-35S dubbed The Super Flanker. Equipped with Irbis - E Passive Electronically Scanned Array Radar with 400 km detection range against non stealth target not Pulse Doppler and the Canon were retained.
Su-37, sadly just a Technology Demonstrator built back in 1996 using Su-35 (not the current S variant) airframe and they modified it with new Radar, Hotas system, Canards, new engine with thrust vectoring and Pilot with balls made out of Steel. The experience of Su-37 leads to the current Su-35S and Su-30MKI, MKM, and SM.
Otherwise very nice video and keep up the good work !
The only plane that can even come close to the beauty of the Spitfire :'')
the Chinese J11's were copies of the Su27. Very UNLICENCED @Matsimus. Its the main reason the Su35 deal failed as it was obvious they were going to copy them and they really wanted just the engines as the Chinese copies are not as good as the Russia examples. Russia is also peeved at the Chinese openly selling these well below Russian prices.
Roland Lawrence But Chinese jets , especially their fighters , have a reputation of being unreliable and almost nothing more than flying tin cans , the J.F17 - a upgraded J7 , is failing to grab any major orders and so i think they would fail with the j11 exports as well (india is probably the second biggest user of Su30s and they would rather buy from russia than china)
Actually, the deal went through and China recieves its first 4 su 35s this year.
Roland Lawrence
Not really.The Chinese got their hands on latest Su-35 and they're gonna make copies of that jet in a flash.
Rakitha Peiriz
Again not really.Myanmar brought Jf-17/FC-1 from China and they'll probably be delivered next year.Just search about MAF Jf-17,I'm sure you'll get plenty of pictures in Burmese colors.
JF-17 is quite a decent plane that's cost effective. recently myanmar air force bought ordered some. technically pakistan air force is the first customer but they invested in the project and manufactures the planes so basically they administer the project.
Yeaah thanks for making this! She's such a beauty. Very informative video
FlyingDolphino thank you!!
This is a great plane. I now go into nerd mode: Did you see that cannon shot at 20:09 ? Jesus talk about long range power and accuracy!
I meant 17:26 (idiot)
I saw it. Yeah, that looks serious...
I wish Canada would buy those Su-27 instead of the Australian version of the f-18 Super Hornet.
Not gonna happen without a serious retrofit to make it talk to NATO standards for weapons, fuel, as well as communications and data links and associated avionics. By that time the hornets would be way cheaper.
That’s assuming Putin would allow the sale to Canada ;)
Canada is NATO.
1. The Russians would never compromise the integrity of their military technology by selling to a NATO country.
2. The Canadian government can't even replace the CF-18 A/B variants without screwing it up. Don't hold your breath for any new aircraft any time soon.
3. The Su-27 is an impressive platform, but it's not the most capable platform. What Canada should be looking at is the newest variant of the Boeing F-15 SE. (Silent Eagle). It employs stealth characteristics and brand new avionics and weapons systems.
Против Глобал+ We use our jets against terrorists in the middle east and to control our airspace in
Canada. It's better to be safe than sorry. Not having an army/air force would be really stupid in my book.
So why fly old Russian Bear turboprop bombers by Alaska and Canada? Implied threat there comarade.
In Su-27/30/33/35 it is possible to integrate systems from F-15SE, but no one will do it.
Analog F-15SE Su-30SM and partly Su-35S. Su-34 bomber.
The main shortcoming of all Su - the collapse of the USSR, in Russia there is little money, save much
I liked vid buu..... it needs more robot voice and anti Russian bias ;>
Brafian BlackFyre haha so true
hahah the best comment yet
Brafian BlackFyre i
I love this guy because he tries to be even-handed - if in general a bit too enthusiastic... I suppose he tends to not talk at all of things he thinks that are crap like, say, the Italian MBT Ariete (note: I am Italian, and I'd like to say otherwise, but the Ariete is a bit crappy) - in his judgement of the various machines.
The Su-27 family is one of the most beautiful aircraft shapes ever designed, the pinnacle of the "4th generation" machines (before the obsession for stealth clogged designers' minds and produced the F-35 and its even uglier competitor, the X-32) and denying it would just be stupid, as it would be stupid denying that the F-14 was/is just as beautiful and it, too, a hell of a machine.
Lol and it could do with fewer facts and less footage
The Su-37 isn't actually the latest variant nor that it's an official production variant, it's merely one off technology demonstrator. The Su-35 timeline is actually T10S > Su-27 > Su-27SK > Su-27MK > Su-30KI (this is the cancelled single seater variant for Indonesia) > Su-27SM > Su-27M2 (early variant of Su-35, also knows as the BM variant) > Su-35S (current). It's complicated because then the Russian have their own domestic upgrade program of Su-27SM all the way to the current SM3.
Also the Chinese has started to induct their Su-35 into their service with Indonesia following close in the future. I'm disappointed you didn't mention the most important features of Su-34, a kitchen, working toilet, and massage chair.
I read about it too and still wondering how the hell are those fitted in such cramped space?
Great video, the best version of the SU-27 is the SU-27SM3. It has Irbis radar from SU-35s along with basically the same avionics as the SU-35s, with new AL-31M1 engines. Some are upgraded air frames and some were the last ones off the assembly line all with upgraded air frames. They have 24 stationed in Kaliningrad who make nuisance of themselves to any planes as they can.
So big, so beautiful and OH THOSE MOVES!
Saw these in 2008, when Russian Knights were at Kauhava Midnight Airshow. Boy they were big and loud!
There is no such thing as a Su-37 Terminator in service...there was one in the 90s, but it was a technology demostrator.
One of the most beautiful planes EVER developed!!! Especially the Su-30 SM
Этот парень знает про наше оружие больше нас 😎
Этой информации в книгах и на саитах, хватает осталось только самим читать и интересоваться. Печально, что не зная вылазят экзперды и начинают еще и беспочвенно засерать.
My favorite bomber is the B1 B. My favorite fighter is the SU 27 family. I think they are also the best looking planes in their respective destinations.
very sexy, feeling sad now the world is entered the stealth age, we will never see beautiful designs like this anymore.
Upan the whole “stealth” concept aggravates me. It isn’t technology I feel is going to last.
Matsimus Gaming yes, for now, the stealthy planes are just use to kick open the door, all the heavy lifting are done by other planes. I think having supersonic cruising and dogfight + a good radar are much more important.
Take a look at the stealth-ish Su-57 then come back and call it "ugly". ;)
@@_Matsimus_ Stealth is a gimmick, like 3D TV screens.
By far this is my favorite jet. It is a superb technological and aerodynamic marvel. Three dimensional thrust vectoring, IRST optical system, and a very good radar makes this jet a serious threat.
Hi, you are a bit wrong with Su-35, and su-37, the su-37 was a test bed from which the su-35 was developed.
Right, the SU-37 is just an experimental and demonstration aircraft. It was not meant to enter service.
Su-27 series planes and F-22 are both good looking and sleek.
it might be old but so is the F15, F16 and FA18
and i would honestly argue that the only American Aircraft that gets close to bothe, the Flanker and the Fulcrum in performance, especialy dogfighting would be the FA18
One of the most, if not the most, beautiful (shaped) jets in the world. That goes for most of the Sukhoi jets imho
where is the dcs gameplay at bro :P
conner well I can’t play it because I suck lol
your missing out bro the mig 21 is so cool
tough game but very satisfying when you do something right
Su-27 family is the most beautiful fighter jet I have ever seen
It looks so aerodynamic
I just want to say, that thumbnail looks really good! The dark background is a cool look behind the plane.
Hit me with a ladle 😂
ZERO FOXTROT VLOGS lol you know what those Russians can be like! Don’t piss them off lol! Thanks for watching matey!
Matsimus Gaming hahaha why a ladle 😂 that's more German! No problem mate, always tuning in
I love that you state only facts and you don't seem biased to either Russian or US systems. For that reason, I subscribe. Keep it up brother
Have to say I have a massive soft spot for the Mig-29
I'm an F-14, F-15, and F-111 guy but the Flanker is a such a beautiful plane with its sexy lines.
Su 35 is the best looking jet ever! Su 27 family > all
Joshua Ngau Ajang I like the migs ( I like the MIG 15bis and 17 the most ) but I like su 27/35 more
I loved playing Air Combat on the playstation flying the SU-27 for every mission possible. One sexy aircraft.
Great job with this! So much better than the "robot voice" channels.
Ryan Korte and yet the robot voice channels have triple the views and subscribers. Not sure what the fuck I’m doing wrong.
Matsimus people tend to only wish to listen to what they want to hear, including bias. Something you leave out. Most robot voice channels are run by people who can't speak english well, and use sub and/ or viewer bots, things you can actually buy in countries like russia.
The Su 27 is my all time favorite plane ❤️
I love it at the end there. "Пёу Вoris! Lets scare the shiet out of tiny Sergei on airfield!"
Such a phenomenal Multi Role Fighter, the Suchoi SU-27 Flanker is way ahead on her own time to be precise
Its Sukhoi.
Do a video on how 99% of old war movies always use tanks that look nothing like the real-life German tanks they are portraying.
M48 Patton as the "tiger" lmao
IS 2 in white tiger as the tiger and it look close
true. though what they did in "Battle of the Bulge" its pretty unacceptable how they used M24 Chafees as "shermans" its understandable they had to make do to replicate a tiger using the Patton. but no authentic shermans? really? and that movie was made some time in the 60's! im pretty sure shermans are still common. just being refurbished to be sent to israel and other countries during that time period
They needed to show the size and power difference between the "shermans" and "tigers" in a dramatic way. Sherman vs M47 wouldn't have had such a big effect.
Russian movies just disguised t-54s as tigers with a weird alien looking turret and t-34s were mostly replaced with 34-85s
Su-27 series for its capability and looks makes it my favourite. Just beating the F-15 through beauty.
Those planes are by far the most sexy planes i know
"A Russian is gonna fly over and hit me with a ladle from his borscht..." ..man I laughed so hard I almost peed myself. LOL!
it is pronounced borshch, hitting you with my ladle!
@@Andal8811 Ouch! ...deserved that...
Imagine a Flanker with a full compliment of Western radar and avionics
kertaspaper94 imagine a pop tart filled with Nutella.......
Matsimus Gaming I don't know what a pop tart is but okay
@@_Matsimus_ it does exist . It's called Su-30 MKI
Kertaspaper94 i think you don't have heard about Indian Airforce Su30mki which is exactly a same combination of Russian aircraft integrated with western avionics n technologies n others adds on of same thing as you are talking about
Grrrreat video, footage and info was much appreciated.
Great vid bud sadly now Que the "i don't like this i demand you do the stuff i like " crowd
I have loved this aircraft. Fun to fly in DCS and it looks unique.
Please do a F-15 vs SU 30 video.......lets trigger some people
Ah no. The F15 is a fine machine many love. Now mentioning the F35... _that'll_ trigger many fanboys. Always does. ;)
@@TheRobster2007 the F35 is kinda like the MiG23 in terms of reputation
ruclips.net/video/i7iyDCchsg8/видео.html
The slender design, the agility, the performance, the vertical-takoff all of it are amazing, very beautiful jetfighter.
Mig-29 is love
GREAT VID MATSIMUS !! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO !!
Fun fact. The su27 was the first plane to pull off the cobra maneuver.
Anyone who takes this plane lightly, is a fool. I love this series of aircraft.
1999 Ethopian Su-27s flown by the former Russian and Ukrainian pilots shot down 4 Eritrean MiG-29s for no loss.
I don't understand how Russia could design such a beautiful and good aircraft fuselage after all it's predecessors. Better looking than any of the US teen series.
And to think this is gaming channel. I Like your work.
Tomas Fernandez haha yeah I’m branching out! Glad you like it and thanks for watching!!
One of my favorite fighter crafts
In the 1998-2000 war between Ethiopia and Eritrea, Ethiopian su-27s shot down 4 Eritrean mig-29.
I love this plane. My favorite jet fighter. Great video with some nice footage thanks for posting it I enjoyed it.
I'm prejudging. Su-27 + Matsimus -> a Like 6 seconds into the video. :)
Imre Kalman haha thanks :-)
Su37 only ever had 2 built, all the desired upgrades that proved useful were installed into the su35s, my favorite jet
