Analyst Damantsev Reports Algeria's Purchase of Russian Su-57s

Some of the flight personnel of the Algerian Air Force (AAF) have already begun retraining on the Su-57E fifth-generation multirole fighters. This was reported by military expert Evgeny Damantsev, citing avideo report broadcast by a local TV channel.

The analyst recalled that the Algerian army already consists of 44 "4++" generation Su-30MKA multirole fighter-bombers with N011 "Bars" onboard phased array radars.

During the period of operation, the flight personnel of the Algerian Air Force managed to adapt to the controls of the Su-30MKA, which are structurally similar to those of the Su-57. Therefore, the retraining process will be much more efficient and smooth.
