Sukhoi T-4 Project 100 Sotka High-Speed Reconnaissance and Strike Prototype Family

The Sukhoi T-4, known as Project 100 or Sotka and sometimes identified as Su-100, was a Soviet high-speed reconnaissance, anti-ship, and strategic-strike prototype family. Its extreme-speed design used a droop-nose layout and a four-engine jet installation for a demanding long-range mission concept; the aircraft remained an experimental prototype rather than entering operational service.
