Sukhoi Su-37


The Sukhoi Su-37 Terminator (NATO designation: Super Flanker) is a Russian multi-role jet fighter aircraft.

The Su-37 first flew in 1996 and is a further improvement of the Su-35 with the main enhancement being a two-dimensional thrust vectoring nozzles operated through the fly-by-wire flight control system. Other Su-37 features include a Zhuk-PH phased array radar and an improved cockpit with sidestick controller and four Thales LCD multifunction displays. The Su-37 prototype was recently reconverted to an Su-35.
