Su-15 UM (Flagon-G) was a two-seat trainer-combat version of the Soviet Su-15 interceptor, produced in the USSR from the 1970s. This aircraft mainly served with the Soviet Air Force and in allied countries, fulfilling both training and air defense support roles. The "Flagon-G" was primarily used for training pilots of interceptor units but could also participate in operational missions.
