The Sukhoi Su-29 is a Russian-designed, two-seat aerobatic aircraft powered by a 268 kW (360 hp) radial engine. Its design is derived from the Su-26, retaining most of the technical and structural characteristics of the earlier model. Extensive use of composite materials, which constitute approximately 60% of the airframe, results in an empty weight increase of only around 50 kg (110 lb) compared to the single-seat Su-26.
This aircraft serves multiple roles including introductory aerobatic pilot training, flight instruction, competitive aerobatics, and demonstration performances at air shows. Additionally, it supports the ongoing proficiency of both military and civilian aviators.
Operators
