Hobby Master HA6025 Chinese PLAAF Shenyang J-11A "Flanker-B" Multirole Fighter - 11230, "Falcon Strike", Korat Thai AFB, Thailand, 2015 (1:72 Scale) "Politics is war without bloodshed, while war is politics with bloodshed."

The Sukhoi Su-27 (NATO reporting name: Flanker; nicknamed "Sushka" in USSR) is a twin-engine supermaneuverable fighter aircraft designed by Sukhoi. It was intended as a direct competitor for the large United States fourth-generation fighters such as the Grumman F-14 Tomcat and F-15 Eagle, with 3,530-kilometre (1,910 nmi) range, heavy aircraft ordnance, sophisticated avionics and high maneuverability. The Su-27 was designed for air superiority missions, and subsequent variants are able to perform almost all aerial warfare operations. It was designed with the Mikoyan MiG-29 as its complement.

The Su-27 entered service with the Soviet Air Forces in 1985. The primary role was long range air defence against American SAC B-1B and B-52G/H bombers, protecting the Soviet coast from aircraft carriers and flying long range fighter escort for Soviet heavy bombers such as the Tu-95 "Bear", Tu-22M "Backfire" and Tu-160 "Blackjack".

There are several related developments of the Su-27 design. The Su-30 is a two-seat, dual-role fighter for all-weather, air-to-air and air-to-surface deep interdiction missions. The Su-33 'Flanker-D' is a naval fleet defense interceptor for use on aircraft carriers. Further versions include the side-by-side two-seat Su-34 'Fullback' strike/fighter-bomber variant, and the Su-35 'Flanker-E' improved air superiority and multi-role fighter. The Shenyang J-11 is a Chinese license-built version of the Su-27.

Historical Account: "Falcon Strike" - "PLAAF Falcon Strike" is not a fixed "force" but rather a series of annual joint military exercises between the Chinese People's Liberation Army Air Force (PLAAF) and the Royal Thai Air Force (RTAF), according to the Ministry of National Defense People's Republic of China, The Diplomat, and Global Times. These exercises aim to improve cooperation, test tactics, and enhance the technical and tactical capabilities of both air forces. The specific exercises, such as "Falcon Strike 2025," involve different aircraft from both sides and often take place in Thailand, according to the Ministry of National Defense People's Republic of China.
