Su-33 Sea Flanker Chan is a beautiful, bold, and fiercely expressive Russian naval fighter woman shaped by the sea, carrier aviation, and the uncertain history of late Soviet and modern Russian naval ambition.

She carries the graceful power of the Flanker family but possesses an identity entirely her own: reinforced by hard landings, sharpened by unstable decks, and warmed by the strange community of people who create an airfield upon the ocean.
