Here's my completed SU-16, "Fluffy".  The build thread is:

                                             INTELLIGENCE REPORT                               SECRET

                                                  2/23/1972                                          Prepared by DOD

               SUBJECT:       SU-16 FLUFFY

The SU-16 (NATO Code Name "FLUFFY") represents a major change in Soviet aircraft
development.  It is the first aircraft since the IL-2/IL-10 of WWII to be designed as a ground
attack and close support airframe. Previously, jet fighters such as the SU-7 Fitter and Mig 17
Fresco had been adapted to perform the ground support mission.  As a dedicated ground attack
aircraft, the SU-16 offers several significant advantages in range and payload over it's
predecessors in this role.

Developed by the Sukhoj design bureau, the SU-16 is a new single seat, single engine fighter
powered by a new Lyulka ALF-23 low bypass turbofan with afterburner.  Initial estimates
suggest that this engine offers about 13,000 lb of thrust dry and 17,000 lb in afterburner. The
aircraft is expected to have a maximum operating weight of about 38,000 lb.  A new wing design
consists of a fixed center portion with a moveable outboard section.  This allows better low speed
takeoff and landing performance while lowering drag at high speed.  The aircraft is armed with
one 23 mm GSH-23 twin barrel cannon mounted on the lower fuselage.  It also has 8 hardpoints
for weapons carriage.  Six are mounted on the fixed portion of the wing and one on each side of
the lower forward fuselage.  The fuselage hardpoints are configured for air to air self defense
missiles.  It is not anticipated that the aircraft is intended for an offensive air to air mission.  The
SU-16 is capable of carrying all current Soviet air to ground tactical ordnance including rockets,
bombs,  missiles and nuclear weapons.  It is expected to carry the new TV guided and anti-radar
missiles now entering the Soviet inventory.

Initial estimates of performance give a top speed of about 1.25M with a combat radius of about
600 miles.  It can carry about 8,000 lb of external ordnance or fuel tanks.  Takeoff performance is
enhanced with the wings forward swept allowing shorted takeoffs as well as operation from
unprepared strips.

The SU-16 is equipped with the latest avionics allowing all weather, day and night operations.
The SU-16 has a ground mapping and terrain avoidance radar, inertial navigation system, radar
altimeter, internal radar warning system and IFF.
