"WIKIPEDIA"
The Sukhoi Su-37 (NATO reporting name: Flanker-F) is an experimental single-seat, supermaneuverable multirole jet fighter, designed by Sukhoi. A further development of the original Su-27 "Flanker", it was modified from the first-generation Su-35 (formerly "T10M") prototypes. The Su-37 features an upgraded avionic suite and fire-control system, but its most notable additions are the thrust-vectoring nozzles. Only two prototypes were converted.



Painted in a disruptive sand and brown scheme, the aircraft was given the code 711 Blue, later changed to 711 White.[17][18] Its maiden flight occurred at Zhukovsky on 2 April 1996, with Yevgeni Frolov at the controls. The nozzle was locked fully aft throughout the flight, and it was not until the sixth flight that tests on the thrust-vector nozzles commenced.[16][19][19] Frolov was joined by Igor Votintsev, and for the next twelve days, the two had amassed twelve flights between them.[18]

The 711 Blue was demonstrated to the press at Zhukovsky in spring 1996, by which time it was re-designated Su-37. Its debut to the general public came in September that year at the Farnborough Airshow, piloted by Sukhoi test pilot Yevgeni Frolov.[4] A big talking point of the show was its performance of the "Super Cobra", when the aircraft pitched up to 180°, literally flying tail first, albeit for only a few seconds; this maneuver evolved into the 360° "Frolov Chakra" somersault.[9][18] The following year, the aircraft arrived on the fifth and last day of the Paris Air Show to perform five aerial displays, the fourth of which was marred by a minor incident when the emergency undercarriage extension handle was moved, preventing gear retraction.[21] It appeared at that year's Moscow International Aviation and Space Show and Dubai International Defence Exhibition, as well as the 1998 FIDAE air show in Chile; for the latter two the Su-37 appeared under the enigmatic designation, "Su-37MR".[22]

Not sure I understand the description or comments on the model, but what is going on with that very strange looking Radonme; it's so long and shape wise completely off, as is the canopy.

However, nice paint work though. Good job masking.

Is this the crude copy of the Academy kit base line Su-27?

Ryszard,
Simply, another one of your rock solid builds with an absolutely fantastic camo paint scheme. The masking had to take forever. Your engine area NMF and it's accompanying weathering is really spectacular.

The canopy may be a little off, but nothing that detracts from the overall look and feel of the real aircraft, but as Mike pointed out the nose cone isn't close. It's so far off that one has to wonder where they came up with that shape.

Model of this company is not very accurate, as indeed you can see in my model.
It is not very faithful to the original vertices. What makes it a very primitive.

I just looked at a Mini Hobby 48th Su-27 kit my friend has and it is indeed a crude copy of the Academy kit. It's basically the same basic kit as the SU-37, so now I understand more.

Still, you did a great job on such a rough kit; Nice job.

Great build. Some shapes definitely of as already pointed out.

However, the quality of the build is great and the end result looks fantastic. Well done!

Thanks for sharing
