AFS-design brings a excellent rendition of Sukhoi Su-27 (NATO reporting name: "Flanker"). The Sukhoi Su-27 is a one-seat Mach-2 class jet fighter originally manufactured by the Soviet Union, and designed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau.
AFS Design's Su-27 for FS2004.
The Su-27's basic design is aerodynamically similar to the MiG-29, but it is substantially larger. It is a very large aircraft, and to minimize its weight its structure has a high percentage of titanium (about 30%, more than any of its contemporaries). No composite materials were used. The swept wing blends into the fuselage at the leading edge extensions and is essentially a delta, although the tips are cropped for wingtip missile rails or ECM pods. The Su-27 is not a true delta, however, because it retains conventional tailplanes, with two vertical tailfins outboard of the engines, supplemented by two fold-down ventral fins for additional lateral stability.
The AFS-design Su-27 product liveries the following:
China, India, Russia with special texture, Poland, Kazakhstan, Erithrea and Ethiopia with 45 different textures.
Include repaint texture for repainters.
