its like… a jet thats nearly 30 years old, vs a jet that was just put into service in 2020 isn’t going to AGE… thats why i laugh at most people who make threads like this. The entire post is comedic gold.
anyways. https://youtu.be/0xf2Ubysu9w
Pretty good video on the Su-57 with the comments being all facts too…
the major comedic thing is how people completely derail the topic by bringing in stuff “economy” and “tank failures” and the weirdest thing of all “nuh uh f22 is air superiority/multirole”

I’ve seen him on various other videos too, so what 🤷🏻♂️
his coping / tears are funny
Personally, I don’t interpret the words “Is it not clear to you?” in a response to a question, “What are you rambling about?” as cope, but you do you 🙏🏽😁
I might @ him so he can kindly explain to you as well! @TheArcticFoxxo

Isn’t every jet’s nozzles air cooled? Lol

Su-57M has air vents inside the serrated pettle leave nozzle to cool it from the inside. obviously every nozzle is aircooled from the outside.

Mover its never a good channel for other country stuff… He is being pretty biased. Max afterburner its better than him. That is why people start to calling him out.
Edit: That video its pretty tamed. Funny how finally he started to accept that the rivet bs is only on Prototype. I remember watching one of his video were he was with an “Expert” talking like an hour about stupid thing like those.

I would regard Max Afterburner being worse than Mover, but idk.

Mover know more about USA stuff. I remember watching good stuff he put out about F-14. But for other thing the guy don’t know or care. Max is less biased and have okay Ish knowledge of other nations toys. So yea if you like USA stuff he is definitely better.

Oh jesus brother, don’t involve me in shartt’s crap.
Bay cooling ducts route to the exhaust nozzle on quite a few engines. Be it the J79, the J85, or even the AL-51F-1. It’s typically used as a replacement for keel ducts (something that you can see between the engine bay and airbrake fairings on the F-16, or in a simplified duct the entirety of the A-7’s tail) and helps pull the air routed throughout the engine bay for cooling purposes out of the aircraft.
When it comes to most 21st century turbofans and their attempts to mitigate heat by venting it through the engine’s nozzle, it both saves space in ducting and helps mitigate the shock caused by the condi nozzle.
For the Su-57 itself, the intakes can be found at the base of the leading edge of either vert stab. The most recent change in design to incorporate them was pushed in 2017 alongside the original Izd. 30 tests, and it saves a lot more space than incorporating it with the diverter, like the aforementioned F-16 does.
The guy in the comment wasn’t rambling. He was indeed wrong about the F-22 lacking ventilation, as it most certainly has dedicated bay inlet doors, but it doesn’t detract from the fact that his statement was pretty short and simple.

If you think about it really hard… You may come to the conclusion that the entire aircraft is air-cooled!
You’d have to do a bit of simplification here and there, but anything’s air cooled if you’re travelling fast enough.

its funny how he said a f16 could beat a su57 in dogfight

Yeah, but the F22 does that as well. Part of the incoming air captured from the boundary layer control system and turbofan bypass air go all the way to the exhaust and mix with the hot air, again from small puncture holes all over the exhaust structure.
You can see the small punctures better in this video than in images on google.
Videos like this are part of why I don’t trust most things we read online on stealthiness, claims from manufacturer, and numbers from RCS simulations. As one can see, the F22 also has gaps on its structure (look the fitting from the fuselage vs the vertical stabs, the myriad of confusing wedges inside the splitter plate, etc.).

Very interesting!! You also made a good point on the literature online and on the stealth bit too, most people have NO IDEA how stealth ACTUALLY works. The maintenance of the RAM is so hard!!. I mean look how bad the F-22 is ageing, so many pictures of the pain peeling off and rusting.
And if you travel even faster its air heated! :D

And that is why Powerful AESA radar need “water” cooling.
