Let’s create an almost entirely new aircraft and call it like a previous one to convince the government that it’s just a cheap upgrade and not a whole new weapon development program (USAF/USN moment)

what video?

Little part form parade

Just a flight of VERY elderly Su-25s and the Russian Knights/Swifts (using Su-30/MiG-29s of similar vintage).

Maybe their Su-57 wasn’t running this morning?

On the air we get this part

On the contrary - I enjoy seeing them wheel out museum pieces older than me. =)

If they had enough Su-57s (and given their reluctance to employ them in contested airspace) you would’ve thought that it would’ve been the perfect opportunity to show them off…

Specifically going into this thread to post a low quality rage bait, yeah, i totally believe you.

Early prototype model - so likely an old video. Note the bloody great fasteners at 8s in.

To be fair, we’ve recently been restricting the release of personnel from a place that cannot be named.

its always the brits going rage baiting in other forum when their own defense equipment is… yeah.

British when no one praised Eurofighter Typhoon for 0.001 seconds

Now, now - you exaggerate. It’s at least 0.5s.

massive improvement, moving towards “tolerable human being” for brits is quite an achievement

i really liked how they gathered congratulations from the crews of different branches, this parade was pretty nicely put together
