Ma³y Modelarz No. 5 - Su-2 supersonic jet aircraft
In the search for better and better solutions for fast jet-powered fighter aircraft, new and bold designs are often used. One of the most interesting designs for this type of machine is to shape the wings of the airframe in the form of a delta, i.e. to give it a triangular outline. Such wings, having a properly developed profile, make it relatively easy to reach supersonic speeds.
Among the various delta aeroplane designs, the aircraft of Soviet designer Pavel Sukhoi, first demonstrated on Aviation Day in 1956 over the Tushino airfield near Moscow, aroused great interest among experts around the world. The aircraft is recognised as one of the fastest in its class.
The model is one of the first versions of the Sukhoi aircraft. Further versions have a number of certain design and aerodynamic changes.
The Sukhoi Su-7 is a Soviet fighter-bomber with oblique wings, full metal structure with a classic tail. The drive was provided by a single Lulka AL-7F1 engine. The flight of the prototype took place on September 8, 1955. It entered the line in 1958. The first production version was the machine designated as Su-7, acting as a fighter plane. However, a very interesting tactical variant of the Su-7B quickly appeared. At the end of the years. 50, the Soviet command promoted the concept of "atomization" and "rocketization" of the battlefield. The main role of carrying atomic charges on the tactical battlefield was to be played by ground-to-ground missiles and barrel artillery, but for the elimination of particularly mobile cells (columns of troops) or requiring a precise strike (nuclear weapons of the enemy, secured command and communication stations), it was intended to be used as carrier of a high-speed supersonic plane. Due to the high speed, large payload, "strong" engine and the appropriate range, and equally importantly, the need to quickly put the machine into service (before the Su-7B, provisionally modified Mig-15 / -17 was used for this role), the choice fell on the Sukhoi design. In the mid-1960s, the plane was recommended for serial production of the Suchoja Su-7B, the first units left the production line in the second half of this year. Later, new versions were created, such as the Su-7BM, with additional rocket launch engines, the Su-7UB, i.e. a training version with a two-person cabin, or the Su-7BK or Su-7BKL versions. Technical data: length: 16.8m, wingspan: 8.77m, height: 4.8m, maximum speed: 1.6Ma, climb speed: 152m / s, practical ceiling: 15500m, maximum range: 1450km, armament: permanent- 2 NR-30 30mm cannons, suspended - up to 4000 kg of cargo on 4-6 under-wing pylons.
