- 12 mm steel behind pilot
- 15 mm steel behind frontal fuel tank
- 15 mm steel in front of armament
- 90 mm bulletproof glass in front of pilot

Modifications and economy
Armaments
Offensive armament
The Su-11 is armed with:
- 1 x 37 mm N-37 cannon, nose-mounted (30 rpg)
- 2 x 23 mm NS-23 cannons, nose-mounted (100 rpg = 200 total)
Suspended armament
The Su-11 can be outfitted with the following ordnance:
- Without load
- 1 x 250 kg FAB-250M-46 bomb (250 kg total)
- 2 x 250 kg FAB-250M-46 bombs (500 kg total)
- 1 x 500 kg FAB-500M-46 bomb (500 kg total)
Usage in battles
Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).
Pros and cons
Pros:
- Decent manoeuvrability
- Good acceleration for an early jet
- Fast aircraft
- Heavy armament
Cons:
- Engines overheat quickly at 100% power
History
The Su-9 was an early Soviet jet fighter built using knowledge and parts derived from the German Me 262 jet fighter.
The Su-11 was a project in 1946 to mount Yakovlev versions of the RD-10F engines in the Su-9 jet fighter. After testing the Su-9 in the wind tunnel, it was found that engines mounted in the wings rather than underneath reduced drag and that the wingtips also needed a redesign. As such, the Su-11 received a completely redesigned wing and before completion it was also received the Lyulka TR-1 turbojet engines. The two engines produced 2,865 lbf of thrust each for 5930 lbf of thrust total.
The Su-11 first flew on 28 May 1947, demonstrating a maximum speed of 940 kilometers per hour at sea level. Unfortunately, the design had a bad longitudinal stability and even modifications to the wing engine nacelles did not solve the issue. Due to the issues of the program the Su-11 program was cancelled and did not enter production.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
