    That’s an SU-27 (or other similar upgrade) no doubt on the “Tblisi” which was renamed the Breshnev(sp) or whatever shipt it’s called now, maybe the Kirsk….unless the Kirsk was one of those kooky helo/vstol half-ass carriers thay have/had.

    I guess he forgot the brakes :shock: The russkies need to leave carrier operations to the pros in the US Navy :mrgreen:

    not familiar with soviet carriers, but i’d say the arresting cable broke, he’s almost stopped, then accelerates and into the drink. at least the ejection seat worked! probably have to change his diaper though, :shock:

    That same thing happened on the Washington when we were doing our blue water certs, an 18 came in, caught the arresting wire, which parted, and then went over the end of the flight deck. Fortunatly the pilot ejected, but the cable snapped back and injured six or seven people (no fatalities that I ever heard of)

    The Discovery channel was actually on board at the time and filmed that particular trap when it happened.

    yea it looks like an Su27k … russian carriers are pretty small compared to US carriers, and have about 25-30 planes on them versus 70+ on the US
