Su-27K Flanker Aircraft Sets for Aircraft Carrier

The Su-27K (Su-33) Flanker was the Sukhoi OKB (Design Bureau) adaptation of the very versatile Su-27 fighter for carrier operations.

The Su-27K was the recipient of a number of improvements to the Su-27 design that later culminated into the Su-35 for land operations, including air refueling, canards for enhanced maneuverability, and updated avionics.

The tail hook is the unique feature of this version to trap aboard the carrier.

The Sikorsky UH-60 Black Hawk is a medium multi-role and infantry support helicopter of American production with a metal structure in a classic layout with a main rotor and a tail rotor on the beam. The drive of the UH-60 D version is provided by two General Electric T-700-700 engines with a capacity of 1560 HP each. The flight of the first prototype took place in 1974, and serial production, which started in 1974, is still ongoing. It is estimated that over 4,000 copies of this helicopter were built by 2017.

The Sikorsky UH-60 was created in response to a tender launched in 1972 by the US Army for a new transport helicopter to replace the UH-1 Huey machines. The new machine was supposed to have better performance, be cheaper to operate and be characterized by high survivability on the battlefield. All these criteria were met by the machine of the Sikorsky concern, with particular emphasis on the last of the above-mentioned elements. Many development versions of this very solid and successful helicopter were created in the course of serial production. The basic version was designated as UH-60A, which was used primarily for transport purposes. Later, the UH-60L version with more powerful engines was introduced, which increased the lifting capacity of the machine. A version of the S-70 International was also created, widely offered - often successfully - to foreign customers. It is worth adding that at present (2017) this version is produced in the plants in Mielec. Numerous specialized versions have also been created, such as the MH-60A, which is dedicated to American special forces. On the basis of the UH-60, the marine version, the SH-60 Seahawk, was also significantly changed. MH-60 helicopters actively participated in the intervention in Granada (1983), the operation in Mogadishu (1993), both wars in Iraq (1990-1991 and 2003), as well as in the operation in Afghanistan from 2001. They have also been exported to many countries, including Austria, Brazil, Chile, Egypt, Israel, Japan and Turkey.

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

The AH-64 is an attack helicopter developed in the United States in the 1970s as a successor to the AH-1 Cobra. The AH MK.I is an attack helicopter produced under license from the AH-64D for the British Army. Initially adopted by the British Army, it was commonly known as WAH-64, but after formalization, it is called AH MK.I. The AH MK.I has the same basic airframe configuration as the AH-64D, but the engine has been replaced with a higher-output RR RTM332, and the ability to operate on a landing ship has been added.

Israel operates about 20 AH-64Ds with the 113th Squadron, which have been modified independently, with additions such as radar sensors and chaff/flare dispensers added. The Israeli Air Force's AH-64D is nicknamed "Saraf," which means "venomous snake."
