The Sukhoi Su-27 (Су-27 in the Cyrillic alphabet) (NATO reporting name 'Flanker') is originally a Soviet fighter aircraft designed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau (SDB). It was intended as a direct competitor for the new generation of American fighters (which emerged as the F-14 Tomcat, F-15 Eagle, F-16 Fighting Falcon, and F/A-18 Hornet), with exceptional range, heavy armament, and very high agility. The Su-27 most often flies air superiority missions, but is able to perform almost all combat operations. Some believe the Su-27 to have been born from a competition between Sukhoi and Mikoyan-Gurevich, given the Su-27's and MiG-29 'Fulcrum's similar shape. This is not so. The Su-27 was designed as long-range air superiority fighter and interceptor, whereas the MiG-29 was designed to fill the role of short-range tactical support fighter.

Yes, they came in today. I grabbed this one and a couple of others as soon as I saw them. Witty has been a real surprise to me. I had no real intention of collecting them because there is so many brands to collect right now, but they have such great paint schemes.

Tonight, I'll be taking pics of the T-Birds F-16, JASDF 50th Anniversary (red) Eagle, JASDF 50th Anniversary (blue) Eagle, F-16 Royal Netherlands Air Force. Maybe others if I have time.

The T-birds too.....Well it's about time.
I'll be getting that Su-27.

If it's not too much trouble, I'd much appreciate a perfectly head-on pic of the T-bird's intake. Also the main gear doors. (I don't have any Witty F-16's, but those 2 areas are pretty critical and may differ from Dragon's) A pic of the actual turbine in the exhaust itself would be nice, too.

That shouldn't be a problem. It'll be after 7PM CST tonight.

Cant wait to see the T bird F-16 in person to.
