They’re probably just gonna stack modernization programs in the Su-35S, they’re already considering the Su-35SM
Su-35SM powered by an AL-51 in the future please

And an AESA too, would be so cool
Hell why not even side radars like the 57
Probably because having 1 massive radar like irbis is better than having 2 smaller cheek radars, irbis can’t see as wide as the cheek radars but is can see much further than those cheek radars
You’re probably right
Its just to show how it will look, but i just saw that its said 12 r37 ?? Its just for the look/expected
That would mean double racks for the R-37M? Gonna look funny lol
Well gonna look like the F-15EX
they text they input was horribly wrong, but the missiles shown in the image is the correct amount
Oh hey it’s you

The beautiful Su-35 cockpit of the Russian knights
AL-51 isn’t designed for Flankers, AL-41F-1S will likely be the last powerplant Russian Flankers ever get.
Besides MAYBE, and this is a huge maybe, an upgraded 41F-1S or some shit.
i feel like they can upgrade with idz 177 ? but its a new engine and ig nothing is known about it atm
There is a aesa su35 upgrade in works using a n036 derivative, so I wouldn’t be surprised if they put a 177, or a non gimped 177 engine of al31 diameter in it
just posting this here. we can see maws and under tail cms
it would be a good excuse to finally un nerf the C-5 120
My opinion is in 2110 the flanker will still be flying. It will have brain to computer interface and drones slaved to her computer pilot interface but overall still flying.
That’s what 177S is for.
