The '''Su-33''' (Russian: Сухой Су-33, NATO reporting name "'''Flanker-D'''") is a [[Russia]]n carrier-based jet fighter aircraft designed by Sukhoi and built by Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association. Designed in the early 80's, it was introduced to the Russian armed forces in 1994. Russia currently operates only 19 of these craft on their sole carrier, the Admiral Kutzenkov, and was to purchase more for the Varyag, Oryol, and Ulyanovsk - three other planned aircraft carriers that were to be built before they were cancelled after the dissolution of the [[Soviet Union]].

The '''Sukhoi Su-37''' (Russian: Сухой Су-37, NATO reporting name: '''Flanker-F''') is an experimental single-seat, super-maneuverable multi-role jet fighter designed by Sukhoi. A further development of the original Su-27 "Flanker", it was modified from the first-generation Su-35 (formerly "T10M") prototypes. Despite demonstrating several tactical advantages, the Su-37 did not enter production, and instead remained as a technology demonstrator for updated Su-27 family aircraft such as the export Su-30 and the Su-35BM (of which it was developed from).
   
Based off the Su-27, the Su-33 features many similarities with other modern Russian fighters. It can reach a top speed of 2,658 km/h (1,652 mph) and has an armament that consists of a 30mm GSh-30-1 cannon with 150 rounds of ammunition, up to twelve air-to-air missiles, various rockets and bombs, and electronic countermeasures.

Sukhoi Su-37

Su-37 in real life

The Sukhoi Su-37 (Russian: Сухой Су-37, NATO reporting name: Flanker-F) is an experimental single-seat, super-maneuverable multi-role jet fighter designed by Sukhoi. A further development of the original Su-27 "Flanker", it was modified from the first-generation Su-35 (formerly "T10M") prototypes. Despite demonstrating several tactical advantages, the Su-37 did not enter production, and instead remained as a technology demonstrator for updated Su-27 family aircraft such as the export Su-30 and the Su-35BM (of which it was developed from).

Battlefield 3[]

The Su-37 Flanker-F is seen at the end of the Full-Length Fault Line Trailer. It is seen flying by an F-16 Fighting Falcon and soon hit by two missiles. It was cut before release and does not appear in the final version of the game. The Su-37 canards were removed from the aircraft model and later appeared (with a new camouflage) as the Su-35BM Flanker-E, another version of Sukhoi's "Flanker" series.

The game files of the mission "Going Hunting" refer to the Su-37 instead of the Su-35BM, hinting that the Flanker-F was removed halfway through development[1]. Unlike the cut F-16, most of the Flanker-F's vehicles files remained in Battlefield 3's, including most of its textures, although they remained unused.
