The Su-37 is a single-seat, all-weather, fighter and ground attack prototype aircraft, derived from the Su-27 ‘Flanker’. The Su-27 is a Russian fourth generation jet aircraft that has been exported to over 20 nations. The Su-37 test aircraft made its maiden flight in April 1996 from the Zhukovsky flight testing center near Moscow.
The Su-37 includes several updates over the Su-27, including all-weather multi-mode passive electronically scanned array radar with synthetic aperture, terrain avoidance, terrain mapping and a rear-facing[citation needed] radar. The airframe includes a percentage of parts made from composites, unlike the all-metal Su-27. Additionally, the Su-37 incorporates the AL-37FU engines equipped with thrust vectoring. The Su-37’s nozzles are variable in pitch only and travel plus or minus 15 degrees, but they can be operated differentially to provide a rolling moment.
Cockpit
In the cockpit the aircraft is the first Russian fighter with the Hands On Throttle and Stick, or HOTAS, system and the first with side-stick. The weapon system shares much with the Su-30″MK”, but it lacks the large display in the rear cockpit occupied by the weapons system officer. The cockpit features four multi-function displays (MFDs) instead of traditional dial-type analogue instruments and has an ejection seat inclined 30 degrees backwards to help counter the effects of high g-forces. The two-grip flying control configuration was designed to prevent the pilot from flailing around when the aircraft engaged in fast vectored-thrust manoeuvres. Both the fixed throttle and the side-stick controller provide secure points for the pilot to brace his hands. [1]
Avionics and propulsion
The Su-37 also has a radar in the tailcone of the plane that allows it to fire missiles behind the plane.[citation needed]
The engine not only incorporates a new generation 2D TVC but also is tough and resistant to engine surge even during classic, inverted and flat spins, giving better reliability and maneuverability, such as when the AOA is as high as 180 degrees.
The Su-37 appeared at the 1996 Farnborough air show piloted by Sukhoi test pilot Eugeny Frolov. During the performance, the Su-37 was flipped on its back while flying at 350 km/h (217 mph) so that it faced the opposite direction, inverted and almost stationary. After pausing for two seconds the thrust vectoring was used to complete a 360 degree rotation and the aircraft moved off in its original direction of flight at only 60 km/h (37 mph).[citation needed]
The Su-37 can carry air-to-air and air-to-surface weapons on 12 stations. The number of missiles and bombs carried can be increased to 14 with the use of multi-payload racks.
Russia has not ordered Su-37s, but it might find customers abroad, a market that now constitutes a sizable share of Sukhoi’s income. Several prototypes have been built, but the aircraft is not in production.
Mock Dogfight challenge
Sukhoi’s chief designer Mikhail Simonov was so confident about the advantage bestowed by the aircraft’s thrust vectoring system, that he challenged any U.S. aircraft to a mock dogfight “… any time, any place!”[citation needed]
The Lockheed Martin/Boeing F-22 Raptor is a fighter aircraft that uses stealth technology. It is primarily an air superiority fighter, but has multiple capabilities that include ground attack, electronic warfare, and signals intelligence roles. The United States Air Force considers the F-22 a critical component of the U.S. strike force.[1]
Faced with a protracted development period, the aircraft was variously designated F-22 and F/A-22 during the three years before formally entering US Air Force service in December 2005, as the F-22A. Lockheed Martin Aeronautics is the prime contractor and is responsible for the majority of the airframe, weapon systems and final assembly of the F-22. Program partner Boeing Integrated Defense Systems provides the wings, aft fuselage, avionics integration, and all of the pilot and maintenance training systems.
The F-22 is claimed by multiple sources to be the world’s most effective air superiority fighter. The US Air Force claims that the F-22 cannot be matched by any known or projected fighter aircraft.[1] Chief of the Australian Defence Force, then-Air Marshal Angus Houston, said in 2004

LOL you want to hear something even better? I believe it was Albania, some third world country ordered MiGs.. within days, they returned them and wanted their money back due to lack of satisfaction.. Albania.. LOL. That is like going to McDonalds and being kicked out due to lack of class. How embrassing is that?
LOL if you think russia is the only country with the capability to track and target more than one target at a time your like 40 years behind the rest of the world. Any modern US or euro fighter can lock, fire, and then lock another target and fire in seconds. And the stealth plays a gigantic role when we have missiles that can be shot of from over 100miles off. And no shit countries can choose where to buy their planes from and there is a huge fucking reason they buy them from euro or the US.
The battlefield at all times.
i meant pretty long range
f-22 radar is prettty long range
more tech? the russian arnaments on the plane is high tech. their radars are powerful which can track on to many targets at once and even ones who possess more possible danger. i know the f-22 has less reduce stress work on the pilot which many western jets hold over russia. passive sensor arrays which russia is excellent at doing is a primary anti-stealth method. other then that yes a stealthy aircraft is potent..but not invisible.
Stop avoiding the point by going off topic with planes that are not built and maintained with the same scrutiny as military planes are. I have nothing against the Su’s. I like them alot, but a plane that has more technology to find and attack targets and designed with a stealthy shape, will always win.
why doesnt the whole world buy american or european jets? every country has their choosing you fool. and accidents happen even on your pity malfunctioning jets and faulty airliners.
And like I said to another fool that refuses to come out of the stone age of technology, if russian planes are so damn good, why does the whole world buy planes that are designed by an American or European country? I mean, if our fighters are soooo shitty, why does the whole fucking world buy them…even the first F-14’s off the line were sold to another country(Israel i think)…
You must be talking about the SU’s that get crashed at airshows world wide. I’m not sure on the radar part, but it wouldn’t matter anyway…that radar sig of an F-22 is shit loads smaller than the Su’s ( you can’t argure that its fact) and would easily be able to see one before it could be seen and hit the SU with a number of guided missles that don’t get tricked by chaff or flares. Have all the radar you want…good luck finding an F-22 before you dead.
There has only been 1 su-37 ever made and it isnt 1/100th as good as a raptor. Talk about ignorance.
since when did russian radars “destroy” planes??
the f-22 is modern.. it has more equipped avionics…. but that wont help it from geting blown out of the sky by powerful russian radars.
Who would want to fly a plane that even the best russian pilots can’t keep from crashing
which american would want to fly a plane that keeps getting computer crashes and has takeoff problems! and the russians do have long range radar ..saying otherwise is an opinion of a fool.
Su-37/35 is the superior fighter i can’t wait, see’n the Su-37.. destroyng that’s F-22 or F-35.
The best russian pilots cant keep from crashing.
Maneuverability means shit these days. Dogfights are the thing of WW2. The way we, I don’t know about the cavemen in russia do shit, is we kill you before you knew we were there, then leave and leave you with no idea what the fuck just blew the shit out of all your su-27’s. Welcome to the 21st century morons…
lol, if it ever gets a hit from the f-22 or f-35 on the radar…oh wait…we can blow your piece of shit out of the air from over 100 miles away. Too bad the russians can’t ever build anything right…
Missile tech. these days is advanced enough to still hit a plane that does one of those crazy stops the SU’s do. Besides the fact that the missile doesn’t have to actually hit the plane but just get close enough to destroy it with the explosion. So, you still lose. US radar is far more effective and our planes have small radar sig.’s which means we see you first and you die before you knew we were airborne. Fail much?
The su37 and any other jet is far more modern and technologically advanced sorry reds.
The battle not neccesarily because the su37 and any other jet is far more modern and any other jet the battle not neccesarily because the russians throw into the su37 and technologically advanced sorry reds.
The su27 has big radar and with high agility can outmanuever missile anyway it depends on pilot.
Sí el Su-37 Raptor el kick alwhays que whay el Raptor es un juguete mierda.
If only the upgraded su-27 could see the Raptor or its rocket heading at roughly mach 3 towards it. Wars arent fought like that anymore, this is the 21st century, not ww2.
its the most equipped with multi capable task but i doubt it would own an upgraded su-27.
The Su-35/37 is the real killer poor Raptor :[ the Russians make a monster with that jet is better in all dogfight / PlasmaSteallth / better engine.
