Changes from the Su-27 include a new radar, foreplanes, more powerful engines, an enlarged and improved infrared search and track unit in front of the cockpit, an infrared missile-warning scanner on the fuselage spine and a large "spine" between the engines containing a rearward-facing air-to-air radar, allowing the use of rear-firing missiles mounted on rotating pylons that can fire missiles in either direction.
The first aircraft able to make Mach 1.0+ in vertical flight.
