Russian designers have completed the work on the documentation necessary for the production of the first samples of the fifth-generation Su-75 Checkmate light fighters (Checkmate - editor's note www1.ru), Rostec reported.
The aircraft was first presented to the public in 2021 at the Dubai Airshow. Foreign customers studied the aircraft and sent their proposals for its refinement. According to the state corporation, some technical solutions were adjusted based on them, which affected the cost of the aircraft. This significantly increased the competitiveness of Checkmate.
The press service of Rostec clarified that the development of the single-engine Su-75 Checkmate was carried out at the Sukhoi Design Bureau (part of UAC). It is noted that the Checkmate version has a high degree of unification with the twin-engine Su-57.
Fighters with one engine are smaller in size, cheaper and more economical in terms of maintenance. They can be used for pilot training, as well as for combat sorties.
Earlier it was reported that the use of Su-35 by Russian pilots in combat caused concern in NATO.
