Aviation is a culture, a tradition, and an aesthetic. And it’s not just about the world’s best - our - planes. Stay tuned for updates ✈️

Sergey “Gigachad” Bogdan. Absolute legend, knows how to operate pretty much entire Russian aviation park and was a test pilot for most of them.

Absolute cinema.

So just a quick update :-

  1. Algerian Su-57 are apparently delivered, however pictures from spotters are yet to be taken and shared

  2. In november, a different T-50 will take part in Dubai Airshow, probably representing megapolis… It will have this symbol on the rudder

Not sure if it will come with al51, but could still be likely

Afaik al51 is still 2d, atleast the flat ones

That’s the opposite, it’s a coating applied to divergent segments to extend lifetime, and the more white it appears the less it has been used.

At least one is, yes. However, it might be difficult to get photos/videos from spotters anytime soon. The one (whom I know very well, a good friend) who filmed the Su-35 at OEB airbase back in March 2025 got some problems after recording

I hope we see it soon, in any case!

It seems indians apparently want to go for the SU-57, but they want the uttam AESA radar on it instead of the Byelka
