The SU37 Terminator....Russia's answer to the F22 Raptor. When you watch this, just think....this is a plane that weighs (in the configuration you see here...clean) 25000kg and is 73 feet long. Not bad for such a large aircraft:D

Cobra maneuver. You can supposedly use this to shoot back over your shoulder or at planes coming over the top. Mind you, I wouldn't pull this stunt at high subsonic speeds where most dogfights occur. You'd be in danger of ripping the wings off!!!. These were done down around 200-300knots. Nice and slow...actually in some of those maneuvers, the plane is only doing 70kmh.
