If earlier the aircraft went into a dive, now the aircraft hovers in the air for a few seconds. The skill was demonstrated by test pilot Sergei Bogdan at the Aero India international aviation exhibition in Bangalore, India.

"Bell" is an aerobatic maneuver in which the pilot puts the aircraft into a vertical climb, followed by a loss of speed until it comes to a near standstill.

After the thrust becomes zero, due to well-arranged aerodynamic qualities, the aircraft begins to "fall" down in a vertical position, maintaining a horizontal plane. The flight path of the aircraft when performing this aerobatic maneuver is similar to the outline of a bell.

The head of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC), Vadim Badeha, emphasized that the Su-57 regularly participates in real combat work, and it is there that it demonstrates its best characteristics.

The fighter enters the air defense поражения zone, can launch a missile before it is detected, and leave the поражения zone.
