I would hope a radar suite from 2018 outperforms one from 1998 but hey im just as surprised as everyone else that Russia did anything modern and correct at the same time.
How is that a surprise? I assume that this is just based on untrue stereotypes.
The J-10 is about to outsell the MiG 35. The JF-17 is in service now in more countries than the SU 57. Russia can’t even build some of their best airframes domestically. Russia cannot make radar ablative coatings domestically. It isn’t a stereotype. Their logistics clearly lack and most of their pamphlets are better than their products. Simple business.
funny how you compare the J-10 with the Mig-35 even tho a better comparison would be the Su-35
while the Mig-35 is closer to the Jf-17
and even then there were still more Mig-35’s sold than J-10’s as you have said yourself
a plane thats supposed to be a cheap export and not a premier fighter
Awesome idea compare with plane what no one buying

0 export customers is kinda peak
So none of this was an argument to my points lol bye
Russian sales are in basement for plenty of reasons. Most are due to availability and compatibility. They aren’t a superpower I’m sorry
your point was being comparing apples to oranges
the Su-57 was exported more than any chinese 5th gen

It’s a 4.5gen sorry lol the world laughs at it. I mean the one customer is Algeria this isn’t a serious defense product
How is that a fair comparison? You can cherry pick an aircraft from any nation and compare it to a well performing aircraft from their competitors like this, meaningless argument. Also, how does production numbers relate to the capabilities of a system/platform? How many planes that have been exported is very reliant on geopolitics, which makes your argument even more meaningless. Due to sanctions, the Su-35 wasn’t able to be sold to Egypt for example.

Give us the requirements for a plane to be considered a 5th gen.
Implying China doesn’t navigate similar sanctions and geopol situations regarding defense sales? Implying Pakistan doesn’t? Lmao stop making excuses. Prove it wrong
stop strawmanning
that wasnt his argument
Absolutely!
Can Russia produce Radar Ablative Coatings? And if so, where? Lmao
Blocked tbh. A gnat that doesn’t advance the conversation is annoying at best
good to know that you dont like getting called out for arguing in bad faith
