That was the late 80’s to 90’s R-37 missile, only ever mounted on the MiG-31M prototypes as far as i know (057 blue was able to take 6 of them underbelly and still have wing pylons for R-77’s or 73’s)

Ramjet missile was K-77PD, which development was cancelled. It was never produced nor operated.

They say these are serial Su-57s, with which a line regiment was armed for the first time. Some ‘stealth’, LMAO.
Yes? It has stealth properties. What about it?

Do you have anything to contribute? Or you’re just baiting? Please enlighten on your online knowledge from non primary sources to tell us what you know. Lol
What’s the glass thing on the underside?
It’s one of the DIRCM
so the F-22 isnt stealth as well
i also see screws here
the IRST has a RAM cover and having a canopy bow dosent affect stealth, it reduces visiblity but not stealth, but it makes the canopy more resistant against bird strikes and less expensive to manufacture
the only thing here that might reduce stealth is the DIRCM and if having a radar makes a plane non stealth, then man i have bad news for you

Yeah, sure, it’s about the presence of the radar, not about the right-angled joint between the radar-transparent cone and the metal fuselage.
All this mental gymnastics around the Su-57 is simply countered by the fact that other fifth-generation fighter manufacturers, for some reason, don’t make such questionable design choices.
so you admit that most of your points were absolute BS
you were unable to counter any of my points and saying iam doing mental gymnastics
so how is it that it isnt a problem on the F-35?
i do see a flat surface here, so the F-35 isnt stealth then

Alright, let’s take a look at how the nose cone junctions appear on fifth-generation fighters, and how this area looks on the Su-57.
What are those little glass panels around it, and what are they for? Look, the Chinese have them too.
good for you, that dosent change the fact that i still see a flat surface when the nose cone is removed
you arent awnsering my question because you cant awnser it, awnser my question and stop moving the goalpost
