The United Aircraft Corporation (UAC, part of the Rostec Group) has begun construction of the first prototype of the latest fifth-generation Su-75 Checkmate light multirole fighter. The aircraft is positioned as an affordable alternative to heavy vehicles, such as the Su-57.
The fighter assembly began at the Gagarin Aviation Plant in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. The first flight is scheduled for 2027, and commissioning and mass production are scheduled for 2035.
The project is primarily focused on deliveries to the countries of the Middle East, Asia and Latin America.
From open sources it is known that the Su-75 will have a flight range of up to 3000 km, a combat load of 7.4 tons and a speed of up to 2 Mach.
In October, Su-75 frames suddenly appeared on one of the military airfields, but the angle of the photograph does not allow us to assess whether the aircraft has engines in the tail section.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the engineer's initiative accelerated the production of protection for the T-90M and the Okhotnik combat modules.
