The aircraft then had been ferried to Zhukovskiy for further evaluation, and by 25 November 1976 hawaii acceptance tests was indeed finished at Akhtubinsk. The U-58TM-with military designation Su-15UM and factory designation izdeliye 43-was a two-seat combat trainer developed through the belated manufacturing Su-15TM. Unlike the former Su-15UT trainer, in which the fuselage ended up being extended to match an extra cockpit, the size of the Su-15UM fuselage stayed unchanged. Inner fuel tank ability had been also the exact same, and only some gear ended up being sacrificed to support the second cockpit. The Su-15UM had no radar, but it could carry R-98MT and R-60 IR-guided missiles in addition to weapon containers. In addition lacked the SAU-58 control system, Lazur-M datalink, Sirena RWR and RSBN-5S short-range navigation system. Only a few Su-15UM trainers were made from 1976 to 1979, also it ended up being the last Su-15 production show.
