Standard colours of Su-27 fleet in early service
The Sukhoi Su-27 Flanker is a twin-engine multirole fighter (S version) / pure fighter-interceptor aircraft (P version). First prototype of T10-1 (Sukhoi internal designation) flew in May 1977. The production Su-27S "Flanker-B" began to enter Soviet AF service in 1985, while the twin-seater Su-27UB ("Flanker-C") appeared only in 1987.
Due to manufacturing optimisation reasons production of single and twin seaters was separated and conducted by two remote factories (hence two lines of Su-27 family development in later years).
In total 517 Su-27S/P and 123 Su-27UB/UP were built till end of 1991 and the collapse of the Soviet Union. Further 56 of both versions were produced for the Russian AF from 1992 till 2011.
The Blue Line paints are water-based acrylics optimised for use with a paint brush. Special formula developed and tested with top European brush-painting modellers. Ideal for usage in the wet-palette technique but also perfect for less experienced modellers and painting straight from the bottle. Highly pigmented and extremely well covering paints. After drying give perfectly even surface, without leaving traces of brushstrokes.
