HISTORY ASPECTS:
The Su-33 Flanker D, with the Bort number 80, was part of the 2nd Aviation Squadron, 279th Shipborne Fighter Aviation Regiment of the Russian Navy in 2005. As a naval version of the Su-27, the Su-33 was designed to operate from aircraft carriers, featuring reinforced landing gear, larger tailfins, and a retractable nose wheel to withstand the stress of carrier landings. The Su-33’s primary role was to provide air defense and engage in air-to-air and air-to-ground combat operations while stationed aboard the Admiral Kuznetsov, Russia's only aircraft carrier. The Su-33 was an essential component of Russia's naval aviation forces, combining superior maneuverability with the ability to carry a wide range of munitions.
In 2005, Bort 80 was deployed as part of the ongoing operations in the Mediterranean Sea and the Persian Gulf, with the Russian Navy using it for various naval exercises and peacekeeping missions. The aircraft was equipped to handle complex roles, including fleet defense, reconnaissance, and strike missions. The Su-33 participated in routine patrols over international waters, where it showcased its multi-role capabilities. The aircraft was known for its long range and combat readiness, often operating in cooperation with Russia’s naval surface forces and engaging in military drills designed to enhance the Navy's operational effectiveness.
Bort 80 also served in the Russian Navy's first significant combat deployment, including missions in the Syrian Civil War in later years, although its primary role in 2005 was focused on ensuring naval dominance and securing Russia’s interests in key maritime regions. The Su-33’s presence aboard the Admiral Kuznetsov was crucial in providing air superiority and protecting the fleet from potential aerial threats. The aircraft’s effectiveness in high-intensity conflict scenarios demonstrated its capability as a formidable platform for power projection and naval defense operations.
This 1:72 scale model with its distinctive Russian Navy markings and attention to detail, is a must-have for collectors and aviation enthusiasts. The replica captures the robust design and versatile combat capabilities of the Su-33, a crucial asset to Russia’s naval forces. Whether displayed for its historical significance or as a detailed representation of naval aviation, this model stands as a testament to the engineering and tactical importance of the Su-33 in naval operations.
