private su-27 flankers for sale

I'd buy one...and start a "sonic boom alarm clock" enterprise.

People would call me and tell me when they desire to be awakened and I'd just pass their house at the specified time low-level and at Mach 1+.

I'd also offer special conditions for snooze-button addicts...say, I'd blast by multiple times.

Off trying to get the necessary permits...

Don't imagine these birds come with the thrust vectoring engines.

Sadly no 'cobra' for the purchasing millionaires.

Pugachev's cobra happens all the time without canards or thrust vectoring. There is a video on the same page I linked to of an SU-27 Farnborough routine that includes a cobra. I don't know about a super cobra, but it's there.

Many other aircraft can do it too. All hornet models can do it and have with special software, but the maneuver is specifically programmed out of the aircraft's flight control computers because it's needless.
