Sukhoi OKB is a Russian aircraft design bureau-turned corporation based in Moscow. It was started in 1939 by Pavel Sukhoi, but didnt really make a mark until the cold war. Up until the 1970s, most sukhoi aircraft were ugly as hell and unremarkable performers that were also cheap, easy to maintain, and pretty rugged. Currently Sukhoi pretty much dominates the Russian Fighter craft industry, with their Su-27"Flanker" and all its countless derivatives. It also helps that Sukhoi corp has pretty heavy political connections. Theyre expected to produce a new fighter called the PAK-FA for Russia and India in the next few years.
Sukhoi aircraft include the
Su-7 Fitter
Su-22
Su-24 Fencer
Su-25 Frogfoot
Su-27 Flanker
Su-37 Terminator
Su-47 Berkut

Get the sukhoimug. A fictional culture in Star Trek. True Trills consist of a humanoid host and a worm-like symbiote that lives inside the abdominal cavity. There are at least two traditional host species; other races such as Humans can only serve as a temporary hosts with medical assistance.
The host has the benefit of the symbiote's lifetime of wisdom and experiences through several previous hosts. Each symbiote has its own name, which becomes part of the host's identity. Joined trills have unique personalities blended from both beings.

Get the Trillmug. Here's a fun game. Drive a silver Toyota Corolla or Camry to a shopping mall, and have a friend move it to a different parking spot. Then try finding it.
Mabye ricers who trick out their family toyotas are on to something. You need altezza style taillights and huge wings just to tell the damned things apart!

Get the Toyotamug. Roach Coaches are food service trucks, usually found making stops in industrial areas and county fairs. Some of the food can be quite good, but whatever you do, don't eat the sushi!

Get the roach coachmug. A neat little airliner made by boeing that is 9.55 times better looking than anything airbus has ever made(its a scientific fact). That said, the B-737 is the most produced airliner ever, with nearly 5000 built so far(and over a thousand on order). While the basic design dates back to the late 1960s, the 737 has been continuously built in dozens of variants and upgrades. Recently(2005), the 737 was selected as the basis for the US navy's new P-8 patrol plane(also the australian millitary's wedgetail). The Boeing Y1 is expected to be its eventual successor.

Get the 737mug. A rather brutal and secretive group of prison gangs in South Africa. Number gangs have numbers instead of names, and typically have millitary-style hierarchy, extensive tattoos, strict internal laws, and require violence against prison staff for initiation. The 28 Gang also has a system for distributing sex between new recruits and established members. Recently featured on a BBC documentary.

Get the numbersmug. Among scale modeling hobbyists, JMN is an acronym for Joyless Modeling Nazi(sometimes Zealot, making JMZ). JMNs are too obsessed with exact details and accuracy to actually enjoy their hobby. As a result, they are usually unhappy, arrogant, elitist, judgemental, and seldom actually finish any models. The term was coined among aircraft modelers, but the term applies to other genres, particularly Armor and Sci-Fi modeling. Although certain online forums are known for being JMN hangouts, they can be anywhere.
Things a JMN would obsess over.
Rivet-counting.
Luftwaffe(RLM) paint-matching.
Messerschmitt Me 109 vs Bf 109.
Expensive aftermarket add-ons for kits.
F-16 Viper Block number.
Deficiencies in commercially available models.
Details that would be impossible to see in miniature, such as a pilot's eyebrows.
