Guest Smitty44 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Looks nifty, a lot like something I have seen before minus the kinards. If it is so stealthy why does it need the camoflauge? Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martinnfb Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Same was happening in Afghanistan beck in 80-ies (mi-24) and Chechnya later on (Ka-50ish) Â No better proving grounds in the world.

Guest Smitty44 Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Targets!Truthfully though,that aircraft does not seem to have very good visability to it's six. For all that yanking and banking Russian jets do, you need to see whats behind you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutik Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) Remember that the Russians made until now only a dozen of Su-57 prototypes, and 2(!) of them are now operating on the skys of a warzone. Â This will give them combat experience, push sales (think India and elsewhere) and also shows the Big Stick to some neighbouring countries that got a bit sloppy about the state borders of Syria.

Hubert Boillot Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 With my admitedly limited understanding of modern aerodynamics and combat jet design, I am wondering how the pilot will cope with an engine-out situation, with these highly divergent jet-axes and diminutive vertical surfaces  Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warbird Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Salut Hubert! Â This aircraft has 3D thrust vector engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubert Boillot Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Salut Hubert!This aircraft has 3D thrust vector engines. That explains a lot and seems fairly logical. Â Merci Tristan ! Â Hubert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juggernut Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 This "new" Russian jet looks to me like a copy of the YF-23 or a poor attempt at copying the F-22 Raptor. MikeMaben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest The Southern Bandit Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 For what its worth I am excited to see new exotic jets from the so called "other side" If they are more exotic than ours, then so be it, perhaps one day we will be able to build them, just as we have with MIGS and SU aircraft .... Nobody said it has to be US or Western Aircraft to be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
