description:
|
|
'The Su-33 has been the backbone of Russian aircraft carrier aviation
|
|
since the late 1990s and is an all-weather fighter capable of engaging both air
|
|
and surface targets. Based on the powerful Su-27 "Flanker", the Su-33 is a navalized
|
|
version suited for operations aboard the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier. Changes
|
|
to the Su-33 include strengthened landing gear, folding wings, more powerful engines,
|
|
and the very visible canards.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Su-33 is equipped with a powerful pulse doppler radar and an Infrared Search
|
|
and Track (IRST) for engaging aerial targets with a wide range of radar- and infrared-guided
|
|
missiles and its internal cannon. For air-to-surface attack, the Su-33 can be armed
|
|
with many types of unguided bombs, rockets, and cluster munitions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Despite its large size, the Su-33 is very capable in a dogfight when combined with
|
|
its integral helmet-mounted sight and off-boresight missiles.'
