Photo Comment

The Su-11 was an upgraded version of the Su-9, which had been developed in parallel with the Su-7 fighter bomber. Recognizing the Su-9's fundamental limitations, Sukhoi began work on the Su-11, which first flew in 1961 as the T-47 prototype. Sukhoi OKB considered the Su-11 to be a misfire, much inferior to the far more formidable Su-15 and only 108 were built. Bort 14 red may be the only one left in the world.
