The Shenyang J-11A is a Chinese multirole fighter aircraft developed from the Russian Su-27SK under a license agreement. Manufactured by the Shenyang Aircraft Corporation, it entered service with the People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) in 1998. The J-11A retains the Su-27SK's airframe and engines but incorporates Chinese avionics and systems. It is equipped with a 30mm GSh-30-1 cannon and has 10 hardpoints for various munitions, including PL-12 and PL-9 air-to-air missiles. The J-11A has been a cornerstone of China's air superiority capabilities, serving alongside more advanced variants like the J-11B. 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 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
