Sukhoi Su-30 MKI - Waltz in the sky

(kulpims)
1 decade 5 years 8 months ago

Su-30MKI is a long-range, high-endurance, heavy-class Air Dominance Fighter with multi mission capabilities. Its engine (AL-31FP) has thrust vector control and a remote control system integrated into a single control loop which renders the Su-30MKI extremely maneuverable.

The aircraft has been in production in Irkutsk since 2000. The first pre-production plane was flight tested at the plant by pilot Averyanov on 26th November 2000.

Sukhoi signed a contract to deliver another 40 Su-30MKI fighters to India this year. In accordance with the terms of the contract, the Su-30MKI planes were to be tested and delivered in 3 stages. The first delivery of 10 Su-30MKIs to the Customer took place in 2002; the second batch of 12 aeroplanes, in 2003. By 2004, the Su-30K and Su-30MKI planes had been put into service with two squadrons of India's Air Force.

Pilot: Viacheslav Averianov (Вячеслав Юрьевич Аверьянов)
