O Sukhoi Su-15 (Nome de reportagem da OTAN: Flagon) é um avião interceptador supersônico twinjet desenvolvido pela União Soviética. Entrou em serviço em 1965 e permaneceu como um dos projetos de linha de frente na década de 1990. O Su-15 foi projetado para substituir os Sukhoi Su-11 e Sukhoi Su-9, que estavam se tornando obsoletos à medida que a OTAN introduziu bombardeiros estratégicos mais novos e capazes.

General Characteristics (Su-15 ‘Flagon-A’ Initial Variant)
The Sukhoi Su-15 was a twin-engine, single-seat supersonic interceptor aircraft developed by the Soviet Union’s Sukhoi Design Bureau. Designed to replace the Su-9 and Su-11, the Su-15 served as a primary high-speed air defense interceptor during the Cold War.

Powerplant and Design
- Engine: Two Tumansky R-13F2-300 afterburning turbojets (later variants used R-13F-300 or R-25 engines).
- Thrust (Total): Approx. 129.4 kN (29,099 lbf) dry / 141.2 kN (75,400 hp) with afterburner (varies by engine type).
- Configuration: Features a cropped delta wing (initial models) or kinked-delta wing (later models) and twin side air intakes, which allowed for a large, solid nose cone for the heavy radar equipment.
- Speed: Maximum speed of approximately Mach 2.1 (2,230 km/h) at high altitude.
- Service Ceiling: 18,500 m (60,700 ft).
💥 Armament and Radar
- Radar: Initially equipped with the RP-22 Oryol-D radar; later models (like the Su-15TM ‘Flagon-F’) featured the much larger Taifun-M radar in an aerodynamic ogival nose.
- Armament: No internal cannon. Typically carried two medium-range R-98 (AA-3 ‘Anab’) air-to-air missiles on the underwing pylons.
- Optional Armament: Could carry two or four short-range R-60 (AA-8 ‘Aphid’) missiles and/or UPK-23-250 gun pods housing a 23 mm GSh-23L twin-barrel cannon.
- Historical Note: The Su-15 gained infamy for being the aircraft that shot down Korean Air Lines Flight 007 (KAL 007) in 1983, after mistaking it for a reconnaissance aircraft.
