The Sukhoi Su-15 was an early Soviet jet fighter prototype developed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau in the immediate post-war period. It must be distinguished from the later supersonic interceptor that shared the same designation. https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/sukhoi-su-15-1949/ #SukhoiSu15 #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #fighter #jet #Sukhoi

The Sukhoi Su-7 (1944) was a high-altitude interceptor prototype, derived from the Su-6 ground-attack aircraft. The Su-7 was a mixed-power aircraft, with a Shvetsov ASh-82FN piston engine with two TK-3 turbochargers in the nose and a Glushko RD-1-KhZ rocket engine in the tail. This mixed power approach was intended to solve the problem of intercepting fast, high-flying bombers https://www.destinationsjourney.com/historical-military-photographs/sukhoi-su-7-1944/ #aeroplane #Aircraft #airplane #aviation #fighter #jet #Sukhoi #SukhoiSu7
