Talk about trap speed This is one lucky Russian pilot. If he would have caught a wire at that high of an angle he would have had one hard landing.

The pilot is lucky that he has close to 60,000lbs of thrust to get him out of trouble and a little luck.The SU-33 is basically the carrier version of the SU-27.
