| USAF buys two Su-27 from Ukraine |
| 2009-05-11 |
| The U.S. has purchased two Su-27 fighters from Ukraine. They were delivered in a Ukrainian An-24 transport. The Su-27s will be used to help train American pilots to cope with the growing number of Su-27 and Su-30 fighters being sold to air forces the world over. The two Su-27s will also be used to test the effectiveness of new U.S. radars and electronic warfare equipment. Had them shipped by airfreight instead of just flying them over? I guess the refueling pods aren't compatible. |
