인도 수호이 VS 영국 공군 타이푼 훈련 결과

In some of the most intense international air combat exercises ever featuring the Indian Air Force, IAF pilots flying Sukhoi 30 MKI fighters had a resounding 12-0 scoreline in their favour against Royal Air Force Typhoon jets in Within Visual Range (WVR) dogfighting operations.

In subsequent Large Force Exercises (LFE) which featured combined Typhoon and Su-30 formations, the IAF jets were somewhat less successful but consistently held an edge over the Typhoon.

The first week of the exercises pitted the Su-30, which NATO calls the Flanker, in a series of aerial dogfight scenarios. First, there were 1 v 1 encounters where a single jet of each type engaged each other in Within Visual Range (WVR) combat, firing simulated missiles to a range of two miles. The exercises progressed to 2 v 2 engagements with two Eurofighters taking on two Su-30s and 2 v 1 exercises where two Sukhois took on a single Typhoon and vice versa. Notably, in the exercise where a lone Su-30 was engaged by two Typhoons, the IAF jet emerged the victor 'shooting' down both 'enemy' jets.
훈련 첫째주가 WVR 훈련이었는데, 1vs1 2vs2 2vs1 1vs2 방식으로 진행되었다네요.

In all dog fighting exercises, IAF Sukhois were able to turn sharply into the extremely agile Typhoons using their thrust-vectored engines to keep the RAF jets locked in their sights.

Both the IAF and RAF used the full capabilities of their onboard radars albeit in training mode, which meant that actual radar frequencies used in combat conditions were never exposed for confidentiality reasons. However, the detection ranges of the radars of both aircraft were not curtailed per se. This was air combat as close to the real thing as possible.
양측 모두 훈련에서 레이더를 실제 공중전에 가깝게 사용했다고 하는군요.

By the time the exercises shifted to Large Force Engagements (LFE) in the second week, IAF pilots were comfortable operating in British conditions. The Large Force Engagements saw mixed formation scenarios where the IAF operated its jets alongside RAF Typhoons in air battles against fellow Su-30s flying together with other Typhoons.
The Large Force Engagements saw 4 v 4 engagements at beyond visual range and graduated to a massive 8 v 8 engagement featuring 16 aircraft in the skies near Coningsby.

플랭커 시리즈가 참 장점이 많은 전투기이지요~
외부연료탱크 필요 없이 전투할 수 있다는 엄청난 내부연료량과 독파이팅 능력.
그리고 대출력 레이더.....

전투기를 제대로 만드는 나라는 미국 러시아 외!~~~없네요.
한국이 러시아랑 손잡고 중급 전투기 개발할수만 있어도 ㅎㅎ;

수호이 시리즈가 우리 생각보다 더 뛰어나다는 것에 생각할 점이 많은것 같습니다.
러시아가 한물 갔다고 이야기하지만 실상 생각보다는 꽤 강력하다는 생각이 드네요.
유파가 저정도면 서방권 전투기중 랩터 말고는 러시아에 대적 상대가 없다는 생각도 드는군요.

괜히 미국이 우주항공 기술력 1위 러시아가 2위 먹는게 아닌것 같습니다.
