The prototype of this aircraft made its maiden flight on May 20, 1971, but due to many problems (excessive drag, inadequate structural strength, flutter, excessive weight) it had to be totally redesigned before it could be put into production. The aircraft's large size gives it a massive internal fuel capacity, and a correspondingly long range. It can also carry up to 10 air-to-air missiles in addition to its built-in 30-mm cannon. Other derivatives of the Su-27 are the P-42 (an experimental version which smashed many of the time-to-climb records set by the F-15 Strike Eagle), and the Su-30, Su-32, and Su-35. All airplane models are Hand Carved, Hand Painted Mahogany and come fully assembled with removable desk stand.
