Military Aircraft Civilians Can Purchase

It’s hard to imagine the powerful, fast, and even dangerous military aircraft for sale can be bought so easily. But, as new generations of aircraft are produced and older ones are phased out – they become available. Without further chatter, here’s the list of military aircraft for sale.

Sukhoi SU-27

A Russian Federation air force SU-27 Flanker fighter lands after the first day of Exercise Vigilant Eagle Aug. 8. Russian and U.S. fighters as well as airborne warning and control aircraft from both countries tracked and escorted a simulated hijacked aircraft as it passed from one nation’s airspace into the other.

Within the last decade, the Soviet-era Sukhoi SU-27 became an aircraft for sale to civilians. This military aircraft was built by the Russians to compete with the Fourth Generation F-14s and F-15s. Its impressive stats make for an exciting civilian aircraft. With twin engines, supermanueverability, and a top speed of Mach 1.8, this fighter jet will give you the ride of your life. It’s also unusually large. While it was built to rival the F-15, it comes in at over 10 feet longer and 5 feet wider than its competitor. All ten of the weapons hardpoints are removed and protected radar technology is stripped for civilian sale. The fuel is carried internally, so this stripped version of the SU-27 is the lightest and fastest of its kind. The asking price is around $5 million which is a pretty good deal to own one of the only bonafide fighter jets available to the public. Don’t want the hassle of owning the real thing?
