Download or read book Sukhoi Su-27 & 30/33/34/35: Famous Russian Aircraft written by Yefim Gordon and published by . This book was released on 2018-10 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sukhoi Design Bureau was tasked in 1969 with developing a fourth-generation heavy fighter and thus began the story of the Su-27, known to the western world as the Flanker--an aircraft which turned out to be one of the most successful Soviet fighter designs. This book tells the story of how the original project developed, how the final configuration of what was known as the T-10 was selected and why the brave decision to scrap the original project and rework it as the T-10S was taken, a decision that proved to be justified. The book covers the design and testing of the prototypes in both configurations, the production entry of the basic Su-27 single-seat fighter and the Su-27UB two-seat combat trainer together with the efforts of Sukhoi to keep them up to date with mid-life upgrades to Generation 4++' (Su-35S) level. The operational histories of Su-27 versions including the Su-30/Su-34/Su-35 are also described. When the Soviet Navy decided to bolster its fleet with carriers optimized for conventional take-off and landing (CTOL) aircraft, Sukhoi responded by developing the Su-27K, which later entered service as the Su-33, Russia's first operational CTOL shipboard fighter. These naval variants are included in the book as is a chapter describing the story of how China purchased license manufacturing rights for the Su-27 and went on to develop its own versions with indigenous avionics and weapons, including the basic J-11 fighter and the J-15 Flying Shark--a clone of the Su-33. The post-Soviet republics included, the Su-27/Su-30/Su-34/Su-35 family has seen service with nearly 20 nations, including places as far apart as Vietnam, Malaysia, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Angola, India and Venezuela. The book describes in depth the development and operational career of the Su-27 family, including mid-life upgrades and the latest variants, and features detailed fleet lists. Richly illustrated with color photographs, line drawings and color profiles of the various color schemes carried by the type, this is the definitive work on a truly outstanding aircraft.

Download or read book Sukhoi Su-27 written by Yefim Gordon and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1960s, the Soviet Union became aware that the U.S. was developing a new generation of jet fighters that had an exceptional range, heavy armor, and great agility in the air. These U.S. aircraft, the F-14 Tomcat, F-15 Eagle, F-16 Fighting Hornet, and F/A-18 Hornet dominated U.S. air power for three decades. In the context of the Cold War, the Soviets could not be seen to be lagging behind the Americans. Their response to these new U.S. aircraft was the Sukhoi Su-27 Flanker, which was designed as a long-range air superiority aircraft and interceptor. The first of the modified pre-production aircraft appeared in 1981, but it was not until 1984 that significant numbers of the Su-27 started to enter service. Eventually some 680 Su-27 were built for the Soviets, of which 400 remain in service with the Russian Tactical Air Force today. Outside of Russia, the Su-27 is also in service with the Chinese, and on the inventories of the air forces of Vietnam, Malaysia, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Syria, and Angola. This book describes in depth the development, operational career, history, and variants within the Su-27 family. The book incorporates color and black and white photos to portray some of the various camouflage schemes carried by the type in Soviet, Russian, and other air forces over the past two decades.
Download or read book The Sukhoi Su-27 written by Andy Gröning and published by Schiffer Military History. This book was released on 2018-11-28 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This detailed, illustrated look at the Russian Sukhoi Su-27 fighter aircraft features complete discussions of its design, construction, and operational use, as well as all technical systems and weapons. Developed in the 1970s as a match for the American F-15 "Eagle," the aircraft remains one of the most important fighters in the current Russian arsenal, and has formed the basis for many variants including the Su-30, Su-34, and Su-35. Though larger than Russia's famed MiG-29, it is extremely maneuverable and considerably more powerful. The Su-27 can also fly at extremely high angles of attack--an ability it is fond of demonstrating at airshows, along with its legendary "Cobra" maneuver. The Su-27 remains in production, and nearly a dozen countries--including China, India, and Vietnam--currently operate this high-performance aircraft. The book is superbly illustrated with more than 210 color images, and includes more than thirty color aircraft profiles displaying color schemes.

Download or read book Sukhoi Su-27 Series written by Theodore Gianna and published by . This book was released on 2023-09-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sukhoi Su-27 production began in 1982. The Su-27 project, however, started in 1969, when the United States declared intentions to construct a new fighter, the F-15 Eagle. The Soviet government wasted no time developing a response to counterbalance the latest American aircraft. The project was named the 'Promising Frontline Fighter Project'. Sukhoi was chosen as the project's winner, and the new frontline fighter was named the Su-27.After the Su-27 entered service with the Russian Air Force (VVS), the sky was the limit for Sukhoi and its family of fighters. The company churned out outstanding variants of the Su-27 series. The first variant is the Su-30 two-seat all-weather, air-to-air, and air interdiction missions multirole fighter. The Su-30, which evolved from the Su-27UB two-seat combat trainer, features updated avionics and can conduct ground attack missions. The following aircraft is the two-seat Su-32 fighter bomber. It was designed for round-the-clock, all-weather engagement of ground and surface targets at considerable distances from home bases. It also has precision-guided weapons to attack enemy aircraft in an intense counter-fire and ECM environment. The subsequent aircraft is the Su-33 all-weather carrier-based twin-engine air superiority fighter, designed primarily for use on the Russian 'Admiral Kuznetsov' heavy aviation cruiser. Next is the superb Su-34 multifunctional supersonic fighter bomber which is equipped with the 'Kinzhal' hypersonic missile system. Then comes the granddaddy of the series, the Su-35S 4++ generation multirole super-maneuverable fighter, arguably the most visually striking fighter aircraft on the market today, and is an exceedingly lethal adversary in a combat situation. It possesses extreme super maneuverability and is exceptionally agile and quick. It could also strike targets on the ground. Lastly, there was the Su-37, the most maneuverable variant due to the 'Thrust Vector Control' (TVC) system, which allowed the aircraft to evade a stall scenario during low-speed situations when the control surfaces became ineffective. Using TVC, the aircraft could be controlled in these conditions by relying on engine thrust as opposed to airflow. The Su-37 project was terminated, and only one Su-37 was produced. Nonetheless, the Su-35s today continue to utilize TVC technology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late 1960s Soviet Union started working on fighters that would be a counterbalance for the American F-15 Eagle. In 1969, a competition for a new fighter was announced, but when the parameters to be met were given, Pavel Sukhoi withdrew from it. He considered that the required performance could not be reached. Despite this, the designers from his office - Oleg Samojtowicz, Valery Nikolaenko and Vladimir Antonov - developed the plane and presented it for the competition as T-10 protoype. The aircraft was constructed as a heavy interceptor fighter (light version was the MiG-29, which was submitted in the same competition).

Download or read book Sukhoi Su-27sm(3)/Skm written by Hugh Harkins and published by Centurion Publishing. This book was released on 2016-06-17 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sukhoi Su-27SM(3)/SKM - The purpose of this volume is to detail the Sukhoi Su-27SM(3)/SKM family of 4th+ generation multirole combat aircraft which emanated from an upgrade program for serial production Su-27S 4th generation air superiority fighter aircraft and a new build program for Su-27SKM and Su-27SM3 aircraft for the export and domestic markets respectively. The volume covers the evolution of the first generation Su-27 air superiority fighter, which was born out of the T-10 development program of the 1970's, leading to the 21st century Su-27SM(3)/SKM multirole combat aircraft through the anomaly that was the Su-30KI development of the late 1990's. No attempt is made to detail the plethora of developments that evolved from the Su-27 such as the two-seat Su-30 families, attention being fixed on the further development of the single-seat Su-27S into the Su-27SM(3)/SKM variants. All technical information regarding the aircraft, systems and weapons have been provided by the respective developers/manufacturers, as have many of the photographs and graphics. Certain elements of text, when pertinent, are taken from the volumes 'Sukhoi Su-35S 'Flanker' E, Russia's 4++ Generation Super-Manoeuvrability Fighter' and 'Sukhoi Su-30MKK/MK2/M2 - Russo Kitashiy Striker from Amur'.
Book Synopsis Atrocity Fabrication and Its Consequences by : A.B. Abrams
Download or read book Atrocity Fabrication and Its Consequences written by A.B. Abrams and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2023-03-15 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Atrocity fabrication – the invention and reporting of atrocities committed by an adversary without knowledge that they ever occurred – has a centuries-long history at the heart of propaganda and power politics as an effective means of moving public and international opinion. Its use can provide pretext for a range of hostile measures against its targets, transforming in the public eye wars of unprovoked aggression into wars of liberation of the oppressed, or turning blockades to starve enemy civilians into humane efforts to pressure abusive governments under the moralistic label of sanctions. As it plays a large and growing role in global conflict in the 21st century understanding atrocity fabrication and the consistent means by and ends to which it has been used has become crucial to comprehending geopolitical events in the present day. This book elucidates the seldom explored but central role played by atrocity fabrication in eleven major conflicts from the 1950s to the present day: from Korea, Vietnam and Cuba during the Cold War to Iraq, Libya and the emerging Sino-U.S. cold war more recently. It highlights the many variations of atrocity fabrication, the strong consistencies in how atrocity fabrication is used, and the consequences it has for the populations of the targeted countries, The book demonstrates the roles played by media and both government and non-governmental organizations in misleading the public as to the actuality of these highly publicized events. The emerging trend towards this mode of action, and the deep implications this has for world order, make an understanding of its history particularly critical
