Description
After the dissolution of the USSR, the Russian Federation cancelled many future aircraft projects meant to replace the existing inventory, such as the Su-37 and MiG-1.44. Due to the tight budget of the post-Soviet era, it was instead decided to upgrade existing aircraft with modern avionics and weaponry. The first of such upgrades was the Su-27SM (NATO reporting name: Flanker-E). The Su-27SM upgrade focused primarily on avionics, fire control, and flight control systems, with the primary upgrades being a new cockpit overhaul featuring HOTAS controls, multiple new multi-function displays replacing the old analog instruments, an entirely new navigation system using GLONASS (the Russian equivalent to GPS), a new fire-control system with an improved radar and electro-optical sighting system (IRST) allowing compatibility with new missiles such as the R-77 and slaving of weaponry such as the Kh-29 to the air-to-ground modes in the radar, and a far more advanced mission computer. Finally, the defensive suite was also overhauled, with the SPO-15 Beryoza being replaced by the modern Pastel radar warning receiver, and the famous Sorbtsiya wingtip jamming pods were also replaced by the more modern Khibiny system. The first Su-27SMs began trials in the late '90s and started entering service shortly after the turn of the century. The Su-27SM standard would receive various upgrades throughout its life, culminating in the modern day Su-27SM3 variant.
在更新“寻找与摧毁”中引入的Su-27SM将非常熟悉，并且在大多数方面与科技树中的前代Su-27相似。主要区别在于它的武器装备，因为 Su-27SM 可以使用新的 R-77 主动雷达制导导弹来增加其在空战中的杀伤力。更重要的是，Su-27SM 比其前身提供了制导弹药选项，包括 KAB-500 电视制导炸弹、Kh-29TD 中程电视制导导弹和独特的 KAB-1500Kr，这是游戏中最大的电视制导武器之一。不幸的是，Su-27SM没有解决其前身与同代产品的主要缺点，例如对抗措施数量不足，雷达系统低于标准或不稳定的飞行动力学。总而言之，Su-27SM是其前身的一步，在正确的人手中，可以被证明是空对空和空对地交战中的危险飞机。

苏联解体后，俄罗斯联邦取消了许多旨在取代现有库存的未来飞机项目，例如Su-37和MiG-1.44。由于后苏联时代的预算紧张，因此决定用现代航空电子设备和武器升级现有飞机。此类升级中的第一个是Su-27SM（北约报告名称：Flanker-E）。Su-27SM 的升级主要集中在航空电子设备、火控和飞行控制系统上，主要升级是新的驾驶舱大修，配备 HOTAS 控制、多个新的多功能显示器取代旧的模拟仪表、使用 GLONASS 的全新导航系统（俄罗斯相当于 GPS）、带有改进的雷达和光电瞄准系统 （IRST） 的新型火控系统，允许与 R-77 等新型导弹兼容，并可与 R-77 等新型导弹兼容。从Kh-29到雷达中的空对地模式等武器，以及更先进的任务计算机。最后，防御套件也进行了大修，SPO-15 Beryoza被现代Pastel雷达警告接收器取代，著名的Sorbtsiya翼尖干扰吊舱也被更现代的Khibiny系统取代。第一批苏-27SM于90年代后期开始试验，并在世纪之交后不久开始服役。Su-27SM 标准在其整个生命周期内都会进行各种升级，最终形成现代的 Su-27SM3 变体。

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:
- Very effective dorsal airbrake
- Has access to the largest guided bomb in the game
- Can carry four Kh-29TD missiles, which is more than any other aircraft
Cons:
History
Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).
Devblog
The modernization program for the aging Su-27s in the Russian Air Force fleet was developed at KnAAPO at the end of 2002. This program aimed to qualitatively improve the combat qualities of the aircraft, improve flight performance and expand its capabilities. The Su-27 received a new RWR, an updated weapons control system and an updated radar for operating R-77 missiles, air-to-surface missiles and KAB-500Kr and KAB-1500Kr guided bombs. The first serially modernized Su-27SM were put into service in 2003, where it's currently in service with the Russian Air Force.
Media
Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
