Su -37 fighter Su -37 is an improved Su -27, which is a super-mobile fighter with vector propeller. Su -37' s testing machine (internal number T 10M- 1 1) was developed from the prototype of Su -35, and made its maiden voyage at zhukovsky Flight Test Base near Moscow in April 1996. The engine of Su -37 not only has stronger conventional thrust than the previous Su -27 series, but also its Lyulka/Saturn Al-37Fu (Forsazh Upravlaemoye means "controllable") engine has a hydraulically controlled nozzle, which can rotate in the horizontal /- 15 degree range. Vector thruster and flight control system are perfectly combined, without pilot control. When the nozzle loses control during flight, the emergency system can restore the height of the nozzle. Su -37 is equipped with a new and more powerful NIIP NO- 1 1M pulsed Doppler phased array radar, NIIP NO- 12 rear-view radar and rear-launched missile system, which enables the driver to fire at the target behind Su -37. Su -37 is the first aircraft equipped with vector propeller, so it can compete with F-22. Luca didn't stop there. A new type of axisymmetric (that is, three-dimensional controllable) nozzle is being developed, which will be used for single engine improvement of S-55 and Su -35. At the same time, the vector nozzle will also be equipped on the Su -35, so that it can control the terminal speed. Su -37 is a multi-purpose all-weather super fighter developed by Russian Su Huoyi Experimental Design Bureau. Su -37, based on Su -27, is an important step for the Russian Air Force to implement a series of fourth-generation fighters and fifth-generation multi-function fighters. Su -37 adopts "unstable three wings" aerodynamic layout and thrust vector control technology to realize the integration of engine thrust control system and radio fly-by-wire control system, which makes it obtain unprecedented excellent aerodynamic performance. Therefore, Su -37 can also have high maneuverability at "zero" speed and high angle of attack, and its super agility enables it to lock and attack targets at any position. The aircraft adopts integrated remote electronic control system and modern digital weapon control system, and can push 14 air-to-air missiles or 8000 kg weapons. Multifunctional forward-looking phased array radar can track 65,438+05 targets in wind time, and four factory corner liquid crystal displays are used to display tactical and flight navigation data. The Su -37 prototype made its first flight on April 2nd, 1996, and made its debut at Farnborough Air Show, 1996. Its maneuvers such as "tail wing" and "bell" are the first, making it a "star" in the open advanced military aircraft. Su -37 was used to replace Su -30MK aircraft and improved fighter Su. It is said that this type of fighter can improve the export potential of Su -27 series fighters before the fifth generation fighter is manufactured. Su -37 fighter is also a transition model to the fifth generation fighter. It retains the structure of Su -30MK fighter and uses the new technology of forward swept wing that has been tested on Su -47. In addition, the Su -37 aircraft will also use and test the airborne equipment and weapons developed for the fifth-generation fighter. The aircraft will be manufactured in 2006~2008, because the fifth generation fighter will not start to manufacture equipment troops before 20 10~20 12, and form combat effectiveness. Experts pointed out that the improved AL-3 1F engine used in Su -37 is also a transitional type of AL-4 1F engine used in the fifth generation fighter, and the AL-4 1 engine was designed by Saturn. Designer: Sukhoi Design Bureau Original country: Russia Model: Multi-role fighter crew: 1 First flight: 1996 Service:? Engine: two Lyulka AL-37FU afterburner turbofan engines, with a single thrust of 30,855 lbs. Span: 15. 16 m /49 ft 9 in. Captain: 2 1.94 m /72 ft. Height: 6.84 meters /22 feet 5 inches.

There are 38+050 shells and 14 external points, and 654 and 38+08 have 12 external points, which can carry at most 14 air-to-air missiles, R-73E short-range infrared guided air-to-air missiles and RVV-AE active radar guided air-to-air missiles in air combat, and can carry various infrared and face-to-face attacks. The main airborne equipment is all-weather/full-height digital multifunctional long-range forward-looking N0 1 1 radar with phased array antenna, which can track 15 targets at the same time. N0 12 rearview radar, photoelectric monitoring and aiming system, laser rangefinder, radar and missile launch warning receiver, chaff/electronic jamming bait distributor, LCD electronic display equipment, helmet display, etc. Power plant: Two AL-3 1FU afterburner turbofan engines (TVC) with thrust vector control designed by Liurika Design Bureau. The design target of this engine is static thrust of 83.3 kN and afterburning thrust of 142. 1 kN. Russia began to manufacture Su -37, a four-generation and a half-fighter, whose only experimental plane crashed at the end of 2002. Although the fighter is still in the development stage, its technical performance and principle difference with the prototype Su -35 are well known, and it will continue to be tested. It is said that unlike the prototype, the Su -37 first changed its fuselage structure and made great improvements in airborne electronic equipment. Su -37 and Su Like -35 adopt the shape of "unstable integrated three wings", which is regarded as a traditional shape, and the front wing test was carried out on Su -27 series aircraft. In addition, the new aircraft is equipped with AL-3 1FP engine with thrust vector, and the jet flow is manually controlled by on-board computer or special side handle. The bigger change in the aircraft is the airborne electronic system. Compared with Su -35, Su -37 has gained supplementary capabilities by using multi-channel digital fly-by-wire control system, including artificial intelligence system. For example, it can attack any enemy in the air (including small targets) in advance. All information and aiming systems are protected by multi-channels and algorithms. It can attack ground targets without entering enemy air defense zones, fly at low altitude and fly over or bypass ground obstacles, including automatic flight status, air targets and ground targets. Su -37 is also equipped with the latest pulse Doppler airborne radar system, with fixed phased array antenna array and rear-view radar. This all-weather airborne radar can track several targets in the air and on the ground at the same time. The improved photoelectric aiming system includes thermal imager, which works with laser ranging target indicator. The optical radar system, airborne radar and improved pilot helmet sight form a unified system, and it is also equipped with a system to exchange target information with other aircraft in the cluster. After the only prototype (machine number 7 1 1) crashed, it was reported that Su -35 crashed. This is mainly because the old engine used by Su -35 aircraft was installed on the fighter during the flight.
