In fact, Legue is right about many things. For example, the airborne infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) and BMDs (BMDs), the “floating” IFVs, are laughable. Much of this needs to be rethought. The concept of tanks is almost dead, except for the representatives of the Tsar of Mangals. The VKS will be replaced by the Su-57 and other equipment.

and they clearly arent doing bad either

russia which had apparently no money for the past 5 years still somehow managed to fund military equipment and produce more stuff locally

even after they had to localize everything becuase they couldnt buy western parts anymore

Sometimes it’s funny to entertain a ragebaiter to see what they do :p (sidenote, it still kinda surprises me to see that some people believe that Russia can make NOTHING good.)

What happens after the first turn though? Like sure, if I let you shoot me where I know you have an advantage, then sure, the Flanker wins all day.

But it can’t sustain that. We can 1v1. I’ll be on around 4:30 for a bit

You also can see that on consumer level - there is way less “good” stuff

Russia doesn’t have the same resources as the US. What they’ve achieved with their budget and constraints is incredible. You also need to try to think objectively.

And in the end they managed to secure sales with Algeria, who has been one of their largest and most loyal customers and partners since the Soviet era. So…? This is an undeniable, big success for the Su-57.

That’s another debate, here we’re getting into economics and politics but in the current context, it’s important to remember that resources are acquired through military/geopolitical actions. Keep that in mind. Yes, their economy is somewhat fragile, but they will pull through. The 90s are long gone.

The interesting thing to note is the model is Su-57E, hence the flat nozzles are offered for export

Yes, R-37M/RVV-BD cant fit in main bays, as the lower fins dont fold

Izd. 810 is being made for internal carriage

i wish they switch to side sticks, that MFD and stick placement is not ideal

Coughing baby vs Hydrogen bomb ahh comparision
Su-57 FM would be on par with the raptors even without al51 honestly

yes

Most of the airshows have half to full fuel load, including raptor and lightning demos

Red colour represents training and testing purposes

normal white with black strips represents inert

The situation is kind of bleak, the ToT is still not upto the expectations of indian side, Infact india is considered less trusted than algeria. This issue has been for a while, a mutual agreement from both sides has failed to establish, HAL wanted better technology transfer with cooperative development of FGFA (this was unrelated to PAK FA projects own developments, other than the base design), however the russians didnt want to just transfer their latest technologies like this, which makes sense, they just wanted to give the finish product and add on the changes later.

Also i havent been updating the main posts info, so ill be rewriting a decent chunk of it, I will also include all the T-50 variants briefly describing them mostly in respect to the systems which matters in game. Plus there has been some misinformation also mentioned, like The linear arrays are SiC not GaN (Turns out they test their TRM by placing it in a linear pattern…)

Also, currently 4 T-50 are converted to testbed for megapolis project as identified by this logo

1)T-50-2 :- Was seen with Al-51 and flat nozzles

  1. T-50-4 :- has something to do with S-71 for megapolis

  2. T-50-8 :- We saw this jet with R-77M the first time


  3. T-50-11 :- Was seen with the new sensors and formation lights

Now the question is, T-50-9 with the sun and hills image… what does that mean? simply for export advertisement? or related to megapolis? or dedicated electronic warfare felon?
