The developer demonstrated the placement of Kh-58UShK missiles — weapons for combating enemy radar stations

The United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) showed the internal weapons bay of the Su-57 fighter (prototype T-50-9) equipped with Kh-58UShK anti-radar missiles for the first time in 16 years.

Experts note that the disclosure of weapons is a rare and demonstrative step: previously, such footage was not published. Kh-58UShK is designed to destroy enemy radar stations and significantly expands the range of tasks that the Su-57 can perform.

It recently became known that Russia may transfer a license to India to produce the Su-57 fighter, and, according to sources, this information was confirmed by the Russian Ambassador to New Delhi, Denis Alipov.

Earlier, www1.ru reported that UAC published new footage from the cockpit of the MC-21 aircraft during testing.
