Robertkp111 Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I've, been looking online for any references with out much luck. Anybody know if there is such a thing. Thanks in advance Robert Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BaconRaygun Posted January 22, 2020 Share Posted January 22, 2020 I don't believe there is... but if anybody would know, it's this user, so send him a PM as he may or may not see this. He frequently sees Su-33's up close, and I believe a family member of his works on them... so if anybody here would know, it's probably him. He's also got some really great shots of various bort numbers that he will probably let you use for reference. Nazar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mstor Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I've never seen any photos other than the early camo scheme and the current scheme. Well there have been a few one-offs for air shows, but that's it as far as I know. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mstor Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 This two color scheme, at MAKS-2007 I believe. More pics here: http://www.flankers-site.co.uk/su-33.htm Thought I have more but that's it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flankerman Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 I wouldn't take that Su-33 in my pics (taken at MAKS 2007) as a guide..... AFAIK, it is a testbed retained by Suhoi - and tarted up for display pusposes - you can see the paint overspray onto the engine nacelles in this pic... I'm not even sure its airworthy??? On one of the occasions I saw it fly, Victor Pugachev did a neat trick on the runway in front of the crowd....... He taxied along the runway and entered a 360deg turn with the wings spread ..... and exited the turn with everything fold - much to the delight of the spectators !!

Hi Flankerman, I keep forgetting that these pics are yours. As usual, thanks for posting such great photos! Anyway, was pointing them out as a one off painted for an airshow.
