+1 when the game is ready for it
what do you mean, it can carry x4 within the two central internal bays and two in the wing glove compartments totaling x6 R-74 internally. unless you have something that says otherwise it would help out alot.

Pretty sure that Simulations its wrong and outdate. Even dhimas afihandarin has redone it. But im also pretty sure that Dhimas hasn’t released the new simulations.
Well that doesn’t help. When did they do the simulation?
The one you posted? in 2022? . Maybe he has the new one on his Patreon or something. IDK, he has talked about it but never has show them.
In April 2018, India pulled out of the FGFA project, which it believed did not meet its requirements for stealth, combat avionics, radars and sensors by that time.
We already have it duh

Totally different aircraft back then.
A couple of years before mass production? Cool story. Yeah, I haven’t heard anything about the Indians getting interested in the project again.
Can’t wait for the F-22 to be added to the game at the same time as the SU-57, the F-22 will dunk on the SU-57 in almost every metric (Russian mains are going to cry).
Gaijin will probably end up adding some Russian superweapon which some 5 year old drew and sent to Putin using it as a primary source to buff the SU-57 one way or another lmao (KH-38MT is now, KH-900000MT is the future?).
Not in this game.

I think they’ll end up going with something like the F-35.
Yeah? It was quite literally a completely new aircraft, T-50-6 was a Serie 1 airframe, not Serie 2.
India doesn’t have the funds to be interested in any project after the great recession and immediate drop in 2014.

Yeah, but it seems that the key selection criteria aren’t stealth or weapon capabilities, but rather the willingness to share all source data and software code. And on top of that, they want the Russians to remove their outdated electronics from the aircraft and install an Indian AESA radar instead.
Preferences for domestic equipment, explains why a International variation exists (Su-57E); to meet clientele’s requirement.
According to Indian defence sources, the primary contention revolves around the Su-57E’s N036 “Byelka” AESA radar, which is built using Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) technology and, in India’s view, fails to meet the detection range, power efficiency, and electronic warfare resilience expected of next-generation radar systems.
The push for domestic radar integration aligns with India’s broader Atmanirbhar Bharat (Self-Reliant India) doctrine, which aims to reduce dependence on foreign defence suppliers and promote sovereign control over critical technologies.
Unfortunately in this article mentioning this topic you brought there’s no explicit and technical comparison between the systems, we all believe that the Su-57E is a export variation of the early models of the Su-57, while the Su-57M1 will likely incorporate a better radar and avionics overall.
USA has been the superpower when comes to overwhelming and weapons alike in-game, in the air the F-22 will have easy superiority to any other models, I’m afraid even at direct dogfighting, while having smaller silhouette, the Su-57 is a huge target.
Well, I looked at the fighters delivered to the troops in 2024, and I see the same old lantern canopy with framing, the round IRST, no S-duct, no sawtooth edges, and a radar mounted without any tilt — everything is just like the prototypes. I don’t know about the materials, but the aircraft clearly still has the same geometry issues.
And if India is facing such significant financial difficulties, why doesn’t that stop them from purchasing modern fighters and preparing for licensed production of fifth-generation aircraft?

The only superiority it would have in BFM would be its aerodynamic capabilities, in which even the Su-57 beats it out in fine-tuned control and post-critical extension.
It would be a matter of who’s slower and who can spool up power faster, and that’s ignoring the HOBS capability that the Su-57 now has and the F-22 still lacks.

Its task is not to fly once directly over Kramatorsk, but to destroy enemy military equipment and infrastructure, including deep behind enemy lines. The F-35 does this, the Su-57 does not.
