Literally one of the best fighter pilots in the fighter pilot community. He came out of retirement to fight for his countries freedom and democracy. Whilst trying to lure Russian fighters deeper into western Ukraine to be engaged by SAMs and fighters he was hit by an s400 system from inside Belarus over 100km away. It makes me sad such a hero and patriot is no longer able to protect Ukrainian skies. But it’s not in vain, Colonel. We are going to make sure Ukraine wins and your sacrifice will never be forgotten.

The flanker is a long range aircraft. To that end it has built in tanks that supply the pilot hot and cold drinks through tubes. The first one we had at the Abbotsford Airshow the pilot was showing a few of us this feature. The hot drink- borscht broth. The other was ice cold vodka.

You should come over here and film at the EAA show in Oshkosh Wisconsin it's maybe the largest Airshow every year here in America I've been 5 times since 95, I met and talked with Chuck Yeager, Russ Shielding(he was the experimental pilot during the test phase of the YB49 the flying wing, .btw Jack Northrup is one of my hero's in this life! It took him his whole life to see his dream the B2 bomber come to life) and Robin Olds which I also have it all on high 8mm video! I love how the cockpit is up higher in rear end reason is so they can see 360 with any obstructions... And if Am I correct the engines are more powerful then our 2:1 thrust ratio compared to our old 4th gen aircraft like the F15..but the jet is heavier and it doesn't have the range that's the setback..still I think Suhkio makes such incredible fighter jets!

I'm American all day and love our aircraft. With that being said Russia has created some beautiful aircraft themselves. The Su 27 being my favorite of the Russian Fighters. I'll say the F-15EX, the Eurofighter, the su27, Saab Gripen, Can't leave out the F-22 but I will leave out the 35 just because it's nowhere near as sexy as the 22. However If we wanna go back a bit in time I'll say the F-111 Aardvark, F-4 family, the Mig 29( I know, it can probably be on the newer fighters list since it's from the 80s but it is what it is) , Panavia Tornado, F-16, and possibly the most beautiful American fighter ever developed..... that sexy big ole tomcat. Bombers, B-1b Lancer 😭 while it's still in service, the Avro Vulcan, and the tu 22M3. I doubt anyone cares about this list I just got nostalgic after looking at the b 29s and the tu 95. Peace to Ukraine!!!! Stop the war pootin, regardless of whether or not NATO made Yeltsin or whomever a verbal promise that still doesn't gives Pootski the right to invade a sovereign country. Just like my country war wrong for invading Iraq, 110% wrong!! Putin is wrong for this in the same way.

I care about your list and totally agree with your aircraft choices whether past or present! It's often the older the aircraft become the more they are treasured (and yes far from excited about the F-35 looks). Pootin does need to to stop the Ukrainian war immediately. Totally unnecessary, totally inhumane and for what selfish reasons.

Just remember guys that the Ukrainian version of the flanker still uses old technology. They have the Version that was meant to fight the F-15A's back in the '80s when they were only using Semi-Active Missiles (R-27's/Aim-7's). Russia Has now upgraded its Su-27's (SM2/3) with a more powerful engine & modernized Avionics that have the ability to fire BVR Missiles like the R-77-1 (Equivalent to the Aim-120C) In which Ukrain will never get lol. They even Upgraded It's Infrared sensor too. The Su-27 SM2/3 is a much better version than the Old Su-27S.
