If Maverick and Iceman shot them down then it must be true.

Sukhoi Su-27K naval version.

Sukhoi Su-35 3D vectored thrust and it is the world most manuverable fighter aircraft. In a close in gun fight this thing would eat the F-22 for lunch.

Speaking of which, has anyone ever noticed that whenever they use an imaginary plane or substitute a NATO plane for a "MiG" (Top Guns "MiG-28" for example), its almost always given an even number, while real production MiG's have odd (3, 7, 9, 17, 17, 21, 25, 29...) number designators?

luckly for Serenity I only do catch and release....

have you ever looked at the SU-35 and say if a F-15 and F-16 had kids it would look like the SU-35.

Treize, I think they use the even numbers for bombers? IL-28, Tu-22, etc
Firefox used the Mig-31

Ummm your forgot about the Su-24 Fencer. The Yak-28 Brewer and the Yak-38 Forger. Those have even numbers.

Yak is still around??

VooWho · « **Reply #24 on:** March 28, 2007, 06:07:59 PM »

Yak is still around, just not a very popular plane company anymore. Check out the Yak-130. They have also been making civilian and commerical planes.

I'm also fond of the SU-34, another interesting concept.

A-6 & F-15 had a baby.

Still say the MiG-29 is the sexiest aircraft of the last 25 years.

Naw, the wings are set a bit far back for my tastes.
