American F-16 fighters cannot compete with Russian Su-35S. This was stated by military expert Yuri Ignat.
According to him, a comprehensive approach is needed to counter the Su-35, including the use of electronic warfare equipment and ground-based air defense systems.
Today, even the F-16s are not new enough to compete with the Su-35 one-on-one in aerial combat.
The Su-35S is a multi-purpose supersonic maneuverable fighter with a controlled thrust vector of the "4++" generation. The aircraft is designed to gain air superiority by destroying unmanned and manned aircraft with guided missiles, as well as destroying ground infrastructure facilities.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Russia will sell engines for T-72 tanks to India for $248 million.
