Sukhoi Su-35S Bort 902 (T10BM-2) was the second of four prototypes of the Flanker E. The Su-35S isn't to be confused with the earlier Su-35 used by the variant Su-27M. Bort 902 completed its maiden flight on October 2, 2008 at Komsomolsk-on-Amur with KnAAPO (Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aviation Production Association) factory test pilot Sergey Bogdan at the controls. 902 is painted in a new 3-color splinter scheme. This aircraft made its public debut at MAKS-2009 Airshow where purchase orders were taken from foreign countries. Designed by the Soviet Union to challenge the superiority of fourth generation US fighters such as the F-15 Eagle, the Su-27 was first flown on May 20, 1977. This one seat Mach-2 fighter had the Soviet Union's first operational fly-by-wire system. The aircraft is very large compared to the MiG-29, its closest Soviet counterpart, but it is built with a high percentage of titanium, which helps minimize its weight. It is exceptionally agile and is perhaps most famous for its "Cobra" maneuver, which is a short, sustained level flight at a 120 degree angle of attack, often performed at air shows. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
