The Russian fifth-generation multirole fighter Su-57 has reached the required characteristics. This was stated by the chief pilot of the Sukhoi Design Bureau of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC, part of Rostec), test pilot Sergey Bogdan.
I used to fly the Su-57 at a stage when it still had the T-50 index and had a lot of overload restrictions. And immediately after it, I managed to get into the Su-35, it seems to be a generation lower, but at such moments you realize that this machine can do everything. But at the same time, you understand that the Su-57 is still a "thoroughbred horse", a very promising aviation complex. Now, of course, the Su-57 in terms of characteristics has reached the required values.
Sergey Bogdan piloted the Su-57 during its premiere at the Airshow China air show in Zhuhai in November 2024. The fighter's display became a sensation of the air show.
The Su-57 is designed to destroy all types of targets, has internal armament, supersonic cruising speed, radio-absorbing coating (stealth technology) and the latest complex of onboard equipment.
Earlier www1.ru reported that a unique version of the Tarakan electronic warfare system has been developed in Russia.
