Unlimited aerobatic aircraft designed by the Sukhoi OKB.
The structure of the fuselage is a welded steel truss with fiber reinforced plastic panels.
The wing has a CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) spar alleged to withstand 24g before breaking.
The Su-26 replaced the Yak-50 family as the main soviet mount for international aerobatics competition.
The basic model was soon replaced by the more capable Su-26M (improved) and an export version was made available Su-26MKh (Su-26MX in cyrillic alphabet).
The Su-26 was replaced by the even more capable Su-31 featuring a CFRP fuselage, a bubble canopy and optionally, a lightweight ejection seat.
Another development is the 2-seat Su-29
Similar aircraft include the Extra 300, and Mudry CAP-232.
The Su-26MX is depicted in the FG version with a 3-blade propeller and a 450HP M-14PF.
The instrumentation is in metric system.
