Product Description:
This seventeenth installment in the popular LOCK ON series focuses on the graceful lines and sophisticated details of the Soviet-built Suckoi Su-27 Flanker air superiority fighter. Regarded by many as a stiff competitor with the USAF F-15 Eagle, the Flanker is a highly capable and potent military aircraft. Stunning full colour photography captures such details as the cockpit, landing gear, engines, acess panels, sensors, weapons, etc., of this very attractive aircraft design. This book provides a rare but in depth look at this menacing aircraft, and belongs in the collections of scale modelers and aviation enthusiasts.

A good book for modelers or the very very serious researcher on the Su-27.There's nothing in there but close-up picture of every devices found on the Su-27.Sadly there's no history or analysis of the type so don't make the same mistake as me and think this is a readable book.I gave it 2 stats on 5 because of the pictures, and actually it's only a pretty picture book.
If you want something more serious look after Yefim Gordon's book or the one by Andrei Fomin.
