The first combat regiment with fifth-generation Su-57 multirole fighters has appeared in the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS). Military pilot Alexei Voevoda said that the military appreciated the new equipment.
According to the reviews of fellow servicemen who were lucky enough to fly the Su-57: you turn around, there's an alien spaceship behind you, it's nice.
The head of Rostec, Sergei Chemezov, noted that the Su-57 is in many ways superior to foreign counterparts, as it participates in real combat operations.
The Su-57 is designed to destroy all types of ground, air and surface targets. The aircraft has a supersonic cruising speed, internal armament, radio-absorbing coating (stealth technology), as well as the latest complex of onboard equipment. The first fighter entered service in 2020.
