Description

The Su-27K, Flanker-D or Sea Flanker NATO designations, is a derivative of the proved Su-27 fighter designed to perform air-to-air and air-to-surface missions operating from an aircraft carrier. It features an arresting hook and strengthened landing gear for carrier-based operations, canard foreplanes for improved aerodynamic performance, folding outer wings and empennage, engagement capability of surface and airborne threats through radar and IR sensor, in-flight refueling capability to achieve mission extended range, 12 external hard points, and a new electronic countermeasures system. The Su-27K, also known as the Su-33, entered service with the Russian Navy in 1994 aboard the Admiral Kuznetzov aircraft carrier. It can employ the latest air-to-air missiles as well as precision-guided air-to-surface weapons. 20-30 Su-33s have been deployed on the Zuznetsov aircraft carrier. The J-15/F-15 is a Chinese-built variant of the Su-33 shipborne aircraft.
