The Russian multipurpose supersonic heavy fighter Su-27 was named one of the best fourth-generation combat aircraft in the world.

This is written by the publication 19FortyFive. The article recalls that the fighter was developed more than 40 years ago to counter the American F-15 Eagle and F-14 Tomcat. The aircraft coped well with this, which was facilitated by high speed and excellent maneuverability.

The Su-27 has set more than 30 world records, including height and payload. The fighter has 10 weapon suspension units and a 30-mm cannon, and the helmet-mounted targeting system simplifies the use of air-to-air missiles. The speed of the aircraft is Mach 2.35.

The publication notes that the Russian aircraft is made in several versions. These are the Su-27SM with advanced avionics and deck Su-27K (Su-33), which was created for the aircraft carrier Admiral Kuznetsov.

19FortyFive concludes: The Su-27 should be taken seriously, it is still able to stand up for itself in aerial combat.
