The Russian Su-35S fighter of the «4++» generation surpasses the American F-16 and the French Mirage 2000 in all respects. This was stated to Perviy Tekhnicheskiy by Captain 1st Rank (retired) and military expert Vasily Dandykin.
Our Su-35S surpasses the F-16 and Mirage in all respects. You can still talk about Rafale. The Su-35S is the main aircraft in our aviation.
Dandykin recalled that the Su-35S belongs to the «4++» generation, but in some characteristics it has fifth-generation technologies.
At certain altitudes, if the F-35 rises and strikes with cruise missiles, our Su-35S detects it with its station at a sufficiently long range and shoots down missiles flying at a range of 150-200 km.
The specialist emphasized that the Su-35S has a better N035 Irbis-E airborne radar and more advanced air-to-air missiles. This refers to the R-77, R-73 and R-27.
The head of Rostec, Sergey Chemezov, noted that in skillful hands, the Su-35S literally works wonders. Pilots also highly appreciate the characteristics of the combat vehicle.
