USAF chief of staff “exceeding mach 1.7”
other pilot have said 1.8-1.82 iirc but i cant find the direct quotes
Ok, interesting. Thats from 2005 too.
same year as F-22 introduction. its also why its F/A-22 since they wanted to really show off its a2g ability (but as we all know now, they changed it back once it entered service)
now, could you find me a source stating that Su-57 can even supercruise? and if it can, at what speed?
Depends if you want a source from Russia or a source from another country:
Can apparently supercruise at mach 1.3
oh and this too:
" A major driver of the Su-57’s performance are its two engines. The Saturn izdeliye 30 engines are each meant to generate between 24,054 and 35,556 pounds of thrust, with the high end in the same territory as the F-22’s F119 engines. These are meant to drive the fighter to speeds of up to Mach 1.5 in supercruise. Unfortunately the izdeliye 30 is undergoing difficulties, and as a result the first twelve of Moscow’s new jets will be powered by a pair of Saturn AL-41F1 afterburning turbofans producing a combined 65,000 pounds of thrust, the same engines that power the Su-35."
show me where i said anything like that
and again, here you can see proof of what i actually did say to disprove pro russian fake claims;
heres some proof from my side
imagine a “5th gen” with worse supercruise than a eurocanard lol
Russian aviation expert, former designer of the Sukhoi Design Bureau explained why the Su-57 cannot yet be considered a fifth-generation aircraft.
“Fifth-generation aircraft have three key indicators. These are supersonic cruising speed, low visibility, and the unification of all aircraft systems into a single complex. If we compare American aircraft with ours, then ours is not the fifth generation yet. It does not yet meet the low-visibility indicator, it needs to be improved. There are also no standard engines yet that will allow it to match the speed. But the Americans, if we talk about the F-22, then this is a full-fledged fifth-generation aircraft,” he explained. Недопятое поколение. Чего не хватает СУ-57
At the end of April 2018, India withdrew from the joint FGFA (Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft) project with Russia for creation Su 57. The Indian military believes that the Russian Su 57 fighter being created does not meet the stated requirements for stealth. The Indian side also believes that the combat avionics, radars and sensors of Russian development do not meet the standards of a fifth-generation combat aircraft. [Су-57 — Википедия]
Is this not a false claim?
does this
have a name?
definetly a secondary gear on driveshaft broke and they had to drive off on the first one after figuring that it was still possible
yes, it couldn’t be towed. yes it did drive on its own, and unfortunately they probably didn’t have much fun servicing it
I can’t find much online about its supercruise unfortunately
so i guess 1.3 it is
I hate to burst your bubble, but the driver accidentally pulled the handbrake and possibly panicked. Then, he managed to figure out what he had done and drove off.

show me the handbrake in the t-14
There is a switch for “slope brake”/“parking brake”. The driver panicked, turned it on without noticing. An experienced test driver arrived at the scene, turned it off and then drove it away without any issues.
exactly where It is, I don’t know because there is very little information about where anything is.
found this too lol
im sure a driver panicked while doing nothing but driving straight
made this up yourself, if you didn’t make it up yourself provide a source for this claim
Im pretty sure RedEffect covered the whole event. I’d hate to misquote him or any other source that comes to mind so you should watch his video.
at about 23:00m in the video.
