You'd be surprised how "fast" this "extension of your body" can occur. From everyday life, when you drive, don't you feel the same way with your car as an extension of your body? If not, don't consider becoming a fighter pilot! 😂 It could occur within 2-3 years, and interestingly, the min time for training combat certified pilots in the USAF is around 3 years if public information is correct.
Find, if you have the opportunity, the answers of the test pilot Bogdan about what this aircraft is designed for and what maneuvers it performs (what these maneuvers are for).
- "Wait wait... " I have yet to see a comment that starts with "wait wait..." to not present a straw man argument or exaggerate heavily (or, as in this case, do both).
To be fair I think everyone knows the su 57 is a very nimble aircraft most of the arguments are about it's BVR capabilities and how good it's stealth is neither of which were mentioned in the video and honestly neither can really be proven one way or the other unless some leeks a lot of documents on war thunder....
4:56 The maneuver is called the Kvochur Bell Maneuver. First done by Anatoliy Kvochur in a Mig-29 in 1988. He passed away this year April 15, 2024 at the age of 71. A day before his birthday.
Great info. Sad. 71 is still pretty young. The insane thing are those claiming it has a 0.1 meter RCS. The freaking scaled up 1970s Super Hornet + RAM has a sub meter RCS, yet, PFA, chimes + RAM = 0.1 !? I'd bet $$ that it was the geometric RCS excluding RAM, as geometry is visible, and RAM is materials tech that required say ... the shooting down of an F-117 for China, Russia and likely Iran to get it's RCS info.
@@simwallace8262 The Cobra was actually created by Swedish pilots flying the Saab 35, it had no tail and was susceptible to deep stalls. The cobra was the best way to recover.
Well a lot of people have the credentials to be labeled a professional, yet they are ignorant as a brick wall. Still he had a very non biased review of what he was seeing!
Keyboard warrior here. If I'm being honest, i would have given very similar feedback. To channel the late great Denny Green, when it comes to the Su-57, it is what we thought it was.
The crazy thing is that this T-50 used older AL-41 engines fited into the Su-35 as well… But two or three days ago, it was announced and showcased that Su-57 will receive new AL-51 engines with FLAT nozzles… Btw, regarding crazy landings such as this one, check out a Malaysian Su-30 pilot performing a Split-S followed by Falling leaf maneuver and than straight to landing… that Malaysian guy also performed two mini loops, or two mini somersaults if you like… which was unique given that only the best Russian pilots performed it 15-20 years ago…
Маленькое уточнение - на Су-35 упрощенная версия двигателя АЛ-41, без многих важных особенностей и с существенно меньшей тягой. В целом Су-35 это и есть машина, несущая элементы пятого поколения (в упрощенном виде) в корпусе самолета четвертого поколения. Двигателей это тоже касается.
Если он летает на Су 30 тогда я уверен что он проходил обучение в России на этот самолет.Остается лишь загадкой чему его успели еще обучить😂 Но стоит отдать должное его мастерству.
Mustache. It's the mustache and the shameless way he rocks it. It's like the dude rocking a pocket square on his suit. You know it's an intentional choice and separates them from everyone else wearing their first suit at the party. You know who can hang and who can't.
Cobra: Most useless maneuver in aviation. This isnt WW2, dogfights dont happen anymore. Fights happen from beyond visual range, if you need to do the "Cobra" you are already gone.
@@milesb2111Bro do you know how radar works? Once you lock on an enemy the enemy can see you on their radar or rwr, so no point in having superior stealth ,you still have to sneak up on them and you need the GUNS, stealth doesn't make you invisible just a little harder to spot. Also the russians have developed a missile just to kill stealth fighters, its called R-27p or something it tracks the enemy using the enemy's radar signal and boom, long range stealth advantage burns to ashes
Very good neutral analysis. He did the cobra at 8.42 min . Sergei Bogdan is 62 years old and is the sukhoi factory test pilot . he fly the t50 (prototype nr4 ) during airshows . He is one of the best testpilots in the world . I saw him flying the su35 during Paris airshow in 2013 ( my profile picture ) . He got the nickname "show stopper " during that weekend . When he flew his demo all activities stopped on the ground . It was that impressive. Best solo display i ever saw . You can find that demo on UA-cam. Le bourget Paris airshow has a UA-cam channel .
I wonder if Mr. Bogdan gets special aircraft flight envelope expansion programed into the aircraft he flies? It would be interesting to learn about flight envelope expansion based on demonstrated pilot proficiency and improvement. The better you get the more aircraft performance you get. Presuming that an SU57 is similar to an F22 or F35---a computer with wings and engines.
Gravity is "fiction" if you only believe. Remember as a kid riding your bike and doing crazy stuff that got you into trouble? People telling you "don't do that, it's impossible" but you did it anyway? And then that first fateful crash. The day after you learn about "gravity" in school.

В России уже все давно рассказали и иногда продолжают напоминать. Если кратко, то су-57 не может в одиночку размотать все НАТО, лишь потому что, к сожалению у него ограничен боезапас и топливо. В остальном он готов: незаметность - 100%, неуязвимость -146%, маневренность - 147% 😅

I’m an American but I don’t like when people overhype out planes and I like when other countries aircraft are appreciated I personally love Russian planes.
The Su 57 was not made for an air show, but was designed to gain air supremacy, destroy all types of air targets, and defeat ground and surface targets. The aircraft can also neutralize enemy air defense systems, conduct reconnaissance and electronic warfare. 1 The Su-57 is also capable of monitoring airspace at great distances from its base and destroying enemy aircraft control systems.
New to this channel but from the first few seconds I was expecting an experienced fighter pilot to be all about the machine and pilot not politics and yup, this was a pleasure to watch - thank you!
@@LoserDestiny That's not strictly true, if you examine the wing root and box they are fundamentally different, but it is built with the same goals, just with a slightly reduced radar cross section. It's very pretty and it can do all this manoeuvre stuff, but in a real stealth BVR fight it's a dead duck I think.
It's always fun to pull off the most ridiculous landings in ace combat one of my favorite things to do is land in an open hanger which is hard because if your nose just barely tuches the hanger wall your plane immediately explodes
Nice neutral review… Super American dude here with a lot of pride, but I don’t want to be pandered to either. I want the accurate real info as an aviation enthusiast. Excellent job. Subbed.
Wait, an american being totaly neutral about a russian jet in current times ? AM I DREAMING ?? BTW: apperantly the su-57 has a 360-ish radar, if you look closely it also has some sort of sidefacing radar, right behind the nose.
I have yet to see any american fighter pilot or retired fighter pilot not be neutral of this jet. whatever commentaries and comments you have in your head, not sure but seems like they are just in your head.
Raptor does not have 3 dimensional thrust vectoring, only two dimensional so it will have some limitations, its nozzle only goes up and down while sukhois can point it anywhere it wants
You seem confused. Critiquing the reality of the Su-57 program (they simply can't produce them at any meaningful number) is not the same as 'dissing russia', it's commenting on reality. Much like the Armata, performance in a show is really unimportant - They remain prototypes.
....he just did?@@viktoriyaserebryakov2755 they can't produce the su 57 on any meaningful level. And then we have china's new gen aircraft which only just produced a prototype. What's wrong with stating that? Is it propaganda to state exactly what the Russian military states?
As a Russian person, I want to thank you for this nice review that shows no hatred or bitterness towards Russia. I do hope that very soon our great countries stop looking for rivalry and start showing more mutual respect and getting along with each other. Americans and Russians have way more common in our cultures than most people think
Putin was your friend until he realized that behind his back you were playing against Russia, while words and smiles on record were at odds with deeds. Your safety at the expense of your neighbor's safety is not fair game. Russia did everything to make friends and trade. Your politicians didn't want partnership. Your countries are puppets and you envy the fact that Russia is an independent country. Look deep within yourself. You have no independence.
It's not nice, it's western educated person, talking about an eastern thing. He is just not blunt. He says, nice, but... a piece of shit. Read between the lines. I personally prefer blunt truth.
correction, he is the BEST pilot in the world. The reviewer here knows it and just can't admit it. There is no doubt and no debate... the pilot we watched here is at the very top of his game. He can do things that no US airshow pilot does. I love American jets and they are amazing but they can only do about 90% of what we watch this guy do regularly with this jet. I wonder if Russia has any upcoming pilots that will be able to take the place of this guy? He is an incredible pilot. Probably the most skilled pilot that has ever flown.
The Russians are very good at making effective AND stylish equipment. Their planes are magnificent, their infantry weapons look pretty good and many are already legendary, their warships (USSR year) are beautiful, their combat tanks are also beautiful machines.
You know one thing about the Russian aircraft vs US aircraft is that the Russian Su-27s SU-35s and even the MIG series of aircraft are sexy asf. The planes look sexy asf. I will say that they look better then most US jets.
The country in Top Gun Maverick was supposed to be Iran. Iran had supposedly closed a deal with Russia for a few SU-57s in exchange for military supplies when the movie was in development. It also goes along that Iran had F-14 Tomcats at the base since they actually have 1970s era Tomcats in real life.
🧐🧐please don't talk about the supply chain how can ya all know about anything out of Oklahoma about Russia by only reading WSJ NYT or else demoncratic trash cans that lie and propaganda... Russia already ordered 3rd badge of another 50 newest SU57 and was never planning to supply anybody but Russia first according to a real Russian DM and Russian real news in Russia.... Iran was never planning to attack anybody that's why Iran doesn't have a modern attack Army and that's why Iran only buy from Russia S400 Pantsir M2 TOR M2 and other SAM systems mostly so as tanks and else like drones

About the "cobra" move... for this plane, this move is obsolete, because it can throttle, make the cobra and after could go in any direction; up, left, right, even back; thrust vector...cumulated with momentum thrust ratio potential... this is amazing...

Посадка называется "Афганский заход" его придумали в 1979-1989 годах во время войны в Афганистане, когда Афганцы получили стингеры от Американцев. У нас даже транспортники его делали чтобы не попасть под ракету. Так что в боевых действиях такая посадка реально используется. Это не элемент авиашоу а часть профессиональной подготовки пилотов.

The SU 57 series is built with Izhelyja Saturn 41 vector engines. The T50 series also received the AL-40 engines from the SU 35. The Saturns have a characteristic whistling sound.
The situation is typical for ussr/russia aviation. Airframe designed for engines, that are under development. And most probably will never be delivered as promised. The only way for su57 got decent engine is steal something from pratt and whitney inc. :-)
That landing technique is actually regularly used by Russian pilots. They call it Afghan landing. They started to use it in Afghanistan to get the landing approach as short as possible to avoid getting hit by the manpads. And Cobra maneuver was on that video as well, you've just missed it.
They have 20+ Production Su-57's and 10 prototype T-50's which are each dedicated to specific systems testing, the one you most often see at airshows is the Engine test bed, They have even done airshows with 1 test engine and 1 prototype Izdeliye 30 engine, which is hugely impressive. It has 6 radars. Nose mounted, L&R Cheeks , K or L band in the wings and one set in the tail stinger. 360 degree coverage though the Stinger one apparently is more EW focused. It also has DIRCM for anti-IR missiles as well as the usual massive amount of flares and chaff. Its an amazing jet
The F-22 achieves ALL of that with sensor fusion. Why are we impressed by the SU-57 needing 6 seperate radars because they couldn't figure out fusion? 😂 Why are we impressed with IR systems or chaff and flares? Is this what we have to do to be impressed by Russian aircraft? Act like these things, that have already been done for years, are impressive somehow? It's Child's Play to the U.S
Having multiple radars for different purposes isn’t that unusual. Multiple smaller radars are for example used as part of the EuroDASS Praetorian of the Eurofighter, the AN/ASQ-239 Barracuda of the F-35 or the AN/ALR-94 of the F-22.
"It has 6 radars." Correction, it has 6 radars that we KNOW about. And 5 of them can overlap in a narrow nosecone to provide extremely powerful fused radar pictures, while 3 of them can overlap to either side from the nose to do likewise to a lesser degree. It has been speculated that there's another radar in each wing, or possibly even 2 each and possibly another 2 in the aft.
I remember reading an article a few years ago comparing Russian and US fighter jets, while there may not be a huge difference in performance and regardless of the debates on that the thing that was really surprising was the cost of certain components and instruments, while the US is paying millions on certain components for their fighters the equivalent components in Russian fighters cost next to nothing and were much simpler in design and function but performed the same. The article was basically pointing out that US military equipment manufacturers/suppliers make massive profits compared to their Russian counterparts.
The fact is that in Russia the military complex cannot increase the price of its products that it sells to the state. at the same time, these same enterprises can sell similar products to other buyers or for export equipment, several times more expensive than to the government customer.
Я знаю что при проектировании Бе-200 (летающая лодка для пожаротушения) столкнулись с необходимостью установки датчика набора воды до полного бака. Датчик получался очень дорогой. Решили проблему выводом трубки за край фюзеляжа. Бак наполняется, вода под напором бьет через трубку наружу и пилот понимает что бак полон. Цена трубки $1
This also includes the fact that, according to Russian military-technical doctrine, all military equipment should be manufactured and repaired as simply as possible, even in battlefield and camp conditions.
A balancing factor to this is that all Soviet/Russian aircraft are very high maintenance. This is because they have to operate in much harsher conditions than their western counterparts. So they use the cheapest parts where they know they're going to break, and design everything around it to be as easy as possible to replace. The plane itself is cheaper, but the maintenance adds up quick. Then again, it also means combat loss of an aircraft isn't nearly as big of a deal since most of the plane would be replaced soon anyway. As always it's about tradeoffs.
@@Colonel-Sigma It's still a pretty big deal if you're struggling to produce them. Thing can take $1 to make, doesn't matter if you can't produce em, yk? Also, the costs of the Russian jets aren't that much under the f-35 (and they aren't getting export orders, at least yet) and the F-35 is more modern with active developments and updates ongoing, with proven capabilities right now. As it is, we will have to wait and see what the finished SU-57 pricetag is, as it's currently speculation
There was no SU-57 on Zhuhai Airshow, Sukhoi doesn't have any of them because those aircrafts belong to Russian Airspace Force. The 2 machine present there, piloted by the real Ace of Air Sergey Bogdan, were old T-50 prototypes with old Saturn engines.
@@NexIHateYT Lol there is no comparison between the 5th Gen F22/F35 & the 4th ++ Gen Su-57, it has the radar cross-section of an F-16. Re-skined single-seat Su-30. Massively overhyped capabilities, besides all that negative, its single positive is that it looks good.
Nice respectful commentary. The SU-57 is what it is. Maybe it was just the camera distance and angle but it looked slow. Hats off to the pilot for a good show and making it look easy.
Max, forget Putin's SU-57. Enemies of The United States sooner rather than later will be dealt with by our all-mighty, invincible American heroes : Superman, Spider-Man, Batman, Captain America and Iron Man.

Russia has 32 su57 in total(9 prototypes out of 10 as one crashed and remaining 23 production varient) further more orders have been stopped as airforce wants it with new stealth al51 or izdeliye 30 engines which is also the most powerful engines on fighters producing peak wet thrust of 171 kilonewtons each and its bit smaller than al41 on su35. But Sukhoi has said that they'll continue producing the airframe of su57 but will deliver it when engine will be ready in 2nd quarter of 2025. Also they've got export order so they don't want to stop production and keep on the production rate like f35 or else it'll turn out like rafale where they've so many orders but production rate of 12-14 per year
@@NikolayMIA "Reports confirm that a Russian Su-57 "Felon," a fifth-generation stealth fighter, was damaged in a Ukrainian drone strike at Akhtubinsk air base in the Astrakhan region, approximately 600 kilometers from the Ukrainian front. The attack occurred overnight between June 7 and June 8, 2024, as indicated by satellite imagery showing fire damage and blast marks around the aircraft." This is old news
This is a prototype, so of course it does not have a great finish. There are nearly 20 SU-57 combat built but like this T-50 they are using a stand-in engine. They are waiting on the intended engine to enter production, it offers about 15% more thrust, better economy and supercruise. They have no sanctions problem with the SU-57 just trying to keep the production busy while waiting on the engine.
Russia has likely paused production of its Su-57 stealth fighter due to the significant impact of Western sanctions, which have severely restricted access to essential components needed for the aircraft, particularly advanced electronics and manufacturing equipment; essentially "crippling" the production line.
Эффектный заход на посадку после резкого поворота - это заключительный элемент противоракетного пилотирования- "вишенка на торте". Безупречное мастерство и высший пилотский " шик " ))

The T50 is not really a training-machine designation but rather an early pre-Su57 prototype - any they are fully functional avionics. At that point things like flash panels and rivets are not a major concern. Parts of that air plane were still handmade. The aerobatic moves also look nice but are often wasting so much energy. And yeah the Suchois in general look beautiful and nice to fly - if that translates into combat capabilities? Who cares. I am just looking forward to new nice looking planes in movies and games :)
this is a prototyp, if you watch the wings over russia documentary on the T50 they specifically show this airframe, IIRC Red 04 is the Engine prototype , it has even flown airshows with 1 prototype engine and 1 production engine...which says a lot about their trust in the AL41f's reliability.
Sure. Electronic warfare can degrade long-range capabilities. Also not all conflicts involve high-end missiles. Or it can be urban or crowded airspace, which also limit long-range engagement. This is similar to how battleships initially thought long-range guns would make close combat obsolete, but reality proved more complex.
all the fancy maneuvers are very relevant for avoiding the incoming missile by confusing it's guidance system and not giving it enough time to readjust.
with both opposing jets being somewhat low-observable, and radars being able to pick you up at 20-40 miles without AWACS or Ground Radar, dogfights may become a real scenario again. So it makes sense to have a decent dogfighting capability, which both the Su-57 as well as the F-22 have.

Dear Max ... thank you for your professional analysis and comment 👍🏻 Because it is apolitical educated comment !! I appreciate it...🙋🏻❤️ Hi from Czech Republic 🇨🇿 Europe 🫡
Wants take Su57 to dogfight? Ok. Modern war technology does its best (actually US Navy too after meeting Zero fighters over half century ago) to avoid dogfight. Sorry, its about killing not fighting... Why is this guy making these claims (buttery seats?) ...hmmmmm
The "SU" line of modern jets are sexy. The airshow stuff is definitely impressive but the chance of these guys making to a merge in today's tech is very slim. Love watching it tho.
You don't quite understand the Russians. They rely on reliability, efficiency and low cost of production. They don't need one high-tech plane worth a billion dollars that will be shot down by a $10,000 missile.
"but the chance of these guys making to a merge in today's tech" Dude, they wont be making it to a merge, because they already shot everything down that was coming at them. Why don't you go look up the Nato evaluation of Soviet equipment from when they got their hands on the real thing back when Germany was reunited? You know, the massive document where the single most common evaluation amounts to "better than Nato equivalent in every way except ergonomics". Which caused the development of the next generations of Sidewinder and AMRAAM, just as the 2 most obvious examples. In particular the Sidewinder was found to be embarassingly inferior. This was back when EVERYONE KNEW that Nato was quality and USSR was purely quantity. Whoops, turned out that outside of the propaganda hype USSR was both.
Its not often that I comment or like a video but its so refreshing to see a professional admire the 'opposition', especially with a military subject. It says alot about your personality and how you must be an expert in your field. Fantastic video! (Uk)
Btw it wasn’t about selling it to china. It’s mostly because a lot of countries have representatives go to the zhuhai expo to look at potential weapon systems. They’re marketing at those countries rather than china.
@ that’s outdated info btw. The original j20 was using the al31. It now uses a Chinese engine called the ws15 purpose built for the j20 with serrated nozzles like the al51f and purportedly has better efficiency, reliability, and thrust than the al31 by a lot. All new j20s called the j20B are pushed into service with the ws15 and most old j20As are in the process of being retrofitted with the new engine.
I think Russia has about 20 in service of the "mass" production version. It is not just the plane, it is the missiles they carry and the little side drone that can fly with them that makes this a very interesting system they have. And I believe they have even better updated engines coming in the next year for these bad boys.
Их уже больше чем 20, а сколько готовых планеров на заводе- вообще секрет. Они ждут новый двигатель который разработан специально для них, он мощнее чем у самолёта с авиашоу
@@totto-netto больше, но, полагаю, не на много. Ну да и ладно. Пока нам нужнее простые работяги типа Су-34. Так же радует модернизация Су-30 нового выпуска - из него сделали практически двухместный Су-35 поставив радар и двигатели от него. Ну а Су-57 пока осваивается пилотами и промышленностью.
I would love to see this at an airshow. Used to see many shows in UK, 1980-1990. Sadly never saw an F-14 fly. Saw SR-71, lots of F15s, F-16s, F-18s, Tornadoes, etc. Loved the F15. I recall takeoffs followed by fast vertical climbs right deep into the clouds with the F15 at Mildenhall. It was like, "Where's it gone?" Awesome.
OMG, this plane didn’t even pass the G test-its wing frame cracked before reaching 8G. They showed it on national TV, and even after that crack, they still said, “Cool, it passed.” Based on its airshow performance, it’s just a poor imitation of a MiG-29’s capabilities, and the MiG did it better in almost every way. The Su-57 is just a parody of a 5th-generation fighter jet. There is no modern stealth technology here. The F-22’s production ended in 2011, and it has an RCS (Radar Cross Section) of 0.001-0.01 m², making it appear as a tiny, nearly undetectable dot-smaller than a bird-like a dragonfly in the sky. Meanwhile, the Su-57, delivered only as a prototype in 2021, has an estimated RCS of between 0.1 and 0.5 m². Are you kidding me? This “airbus” would be shot down immediately as soon as it appeared. This huge difference shows that the Su-57 is total nonsense, made to “scare” the gullible population. All of this is classic showmanship for naive investors from totalitarian countries who invest in flashy performances rather than silent technology-like the F-35 demonstrated when it eliminated Iranian leaders without anyone even noticing it was there. BTW Iran using S400... Long story short, what we’re seeing is just a talented airshow pilot performing a program straight out of the ’80s, proving that development has stalled and Russia is screwed. Screw those terrorists. All this plane can do now is terrorize the Ukrainian frontline.
ya ya, dude, in the SVO zone this is the only way this "Airbus" strikes with FABs, and with other calibers. Your vaunted American technologies don't work. Why are you shaking so much? Don't wet yourself.

I have yet to see a comment that starts with "wait wait..." to not present a straw man argument or exaggerate heavily (or, as in this case, do both).
To be fair I think everyone knows the su 57 is a very nimble aircraft most of the arguments are about it's BVR capabilities and how good it's stealth is neither of which were mentioned in the video and honestly neither can really be proven one way or the other unless some leeks a lot of documents on war thunder....

4:56 The maneuver is called the Kvochur Bell Maneuver. First done by Anatoliy Kvochur in a Mig-29 in 1988. He passed away this year April 15, 2024 at the age of 71. A day before his birthday.
Great info. Sad. 71 is still pretty young. The insane thing are those claiming it has a 0.1 meter RCS.
The freaking scaled up 1970s Super Hornet + RAM has a sub meter RCS, yet, PFA, chimes + RAM = 0.1 !?
I'd bet $$ that it was the geometric RCS excluding RAM, as geometry is visible, and RAM is materials tech
that required say ... the shooting down of an F-117 for China, Russia and likely Iran to get it's RCS info.

The crazy thing is that this T-50 used older AL-41 engines fited into the Su-35 as well…
But two or three days ago, it was announced and showcased that Su-57 will receive new AL-51 engines with FLAT nozzles…
Btw, regarding crazy landings such as this one, check out a Malaysian Su-30 pilot performing a Split-S followed by Falling leaf maneuver and than straight to landing… that Malaysian guy also performed two mini loops, or two mini somersaults if you like… which was unique given that only the best Russian pilots performed it 15-20 years ago…
Маленькое уточнение - на Су-35 упрощенная версия двигателя АЛ-41, без многих важных особенностей и с существенно меньшей тягой.
В целом Су-35 это и есть машина, несущая элементы пятого поколения (в упрощенном виде) в корпусе самолета четвертого поколения. Двигателей это тоже касается.

Once you lock on an enemy the enemy can see you on their radar or rwr, so no point in having superior stealth ,you still have to sneak up on them and you need the GUNS, stealth doesn't make you invisible just a little harder to spot. Also the russians have developed a missile just to kill stealth fighters, its called R-27p or something it tracks the enemy using the enemy's radar signal and boom, long range stealth advantage burns to ashes

This plane mastered gravity. The way it falls and then suddenly stops falling and moves on like gravity is fiction is simply fascinating!

You seem confused. Critiquing the reality of the Su-57 program (they simply can't produce them at any meaningful number) is not the same as 'dissing russia', it's commenting on reality. Much like the Armata, performance in a show is really unimportant - They remain prototypes.

The country in Top Gun Maverick was supposed to be Iran. Iran had supposedly closed a deal with Russia for a few SU-57s in exchange for military supplies when the movie was in development. It also goes along that Iran had F-14 Tomcats at the base since they actually have 1970s era Tomcats in real life.
That’s what I thought 2
They didn't get the Su-57 in the end though. They apparently bought Su-35
From what I read putin gave approval to build su35 in iran.
🧐🧐please don't talk about the supply chain how can ya all know about anything out of Oklahoma about Russia by only reading WSJ NYT or else demoncratic trash cans that lie and propaganda... Russia already ordered 3rd badge of another 50 newest SU57 and was never planning to supply anybody but Russia first according to a real Russian DM and Russian real news in Russia.... Iran was never planning to attack anybody that's why Iran doesn't have a modern attack Army and that's why Iran only buy from Russia S400 Pantsir M2 TOR M2 and other SAM systems mostly so as tanks and else like drones
Fun fact: Iran has the most F-14 kills, not the US. The highest scoring F-14 ace - Major Jalil Zandi - was also Iranian.

The SU-57 is not flying with the engine it was designed for. The final engine will have even more thrust.
hahahaha
Within this century?
Meanwhile they are all built with the disposable engines the all russian jets use....lol
The SU 57 series is built with Izhelyja Saturn 41 vector engines. The T50 series also received the AL-40 engines from the SU 35. The Saturns have a characteristic whistling sound.
The situation is typical for ussr/russia aviation. Airframe designed for engines, that are under development. And most probably will never be delivered as promised. The only way for su57 got decent engine is steal something from pratt and whitney inc. :-)
That landing technique is actually regularly used by Russian pilots. They call it Afghan landing. They started to use it in Afghanistan to get the landing approach as short as possible to avoid getting hit by the manpads.
And Cobra maneuver was on that video as well, you've just missed it.
Yep, he was excited talking about something during the cobra move, but can’t blame him! Awesome demo and I love his narration!
They have 20+ Production Su-57's and 10 prototype T-50's which are each dedicated to specific systems testing, the one you most often see at airshows is the Engine test bed, They have even done airshows with 1 test engine and 1 prototype Izdeliye 30 engine, which is hugely impressive. It has 6 radars. Nose mounted, L&R Cheeks , K or L band in the wings and one set in the tail stinger. 360 degree coverage though the Stinger one apparently is more EW focused. It also has DIRCM for anti-IR missiles as well as the usual massive amount of flares and chaff. Its an amazing jet
The F-22 achieves ALL of that with sensor fusion.
Why are we impressed by the SU-57 needing 6 seperate radars because they couldn't figure out fusion? 😂
Why are we impressed with IR systems or chaff and flares?
Is this what we have to do to be impressed by Russian aircraft? Act like these things, that have already been done for years, are impressive somehow? It's Child's Play to the U.S
@@ObiWanShinobi917 Sensor fusion isn't 3D phased array or A.I integrated dummy. 😂
Having multiple radars for different purposes isn’t that unusual. Multiple smaller radars are for example used as part of the EuroDASS Praetorian of the Eurofighter, the AN/ASQ-239 Barracuda of the F-35 or the AN/ALR-94 of the F-22.
"It has 6 radars."
Correction, it has 6 radars that we KNOW about.
And 5 of them can overlap in a narrow nosecone to provide extremely powerful fused radar pictures, while 3 of them can overlap to either side from the nose to do likewise to a lesser degree.
It has been speculated that there's another radar in each wing, or possibly even 2 each and possibly another 2 in the aft.
@@ianantoinerobinson715 Yes it it in the US's case. Not russia's. The US is waaaaay ahead on all of that stuff vs. russia. Night and day.
I remember reading an article a few years ago comparing Russian and US fighter jets, while there may not be a huge difference in performance and regardless of the debates on that the thing that was really surprising was the cost of certain components and instruments, while the US is paying millions on certain components for their fighters the equivalent components in Russian fighters cost next to nothing and were much simpler in design and function but performed the same. The article was basically pointing out that US military equipment manufacturers/suppliers make massive profits compared to their Russian counterparts.
The fact is that in Russia the military complex cannot increase the price of its products that it sells to the state. at the same time, these same enterprises can sell similar products to other buyers or for export equipment, several times more expensive than to the government customer.
Я знаю что при проектировании Бе-200 (летающая лодка для пожаротушения) столкнулись с необходимостью установки датчика набора воды до полного бака. Датчик получался очень дорогой. Решили проблему выводом трубки за край фюзеляжа. Бак наполняется, вода под напором бьет через трубку наружу и пилот понимает что бак полон. Цена трубки $1
This also includes the fact that, according to Russian military-technical doctrine, all military equipment should be manufactured and repaired as simply as possible, even in battlefield and camp conditions.
A balancing factor to this is that all Soviet/Russian aircraft are very high maintenance.
This is because they have to operate in much harsher conditions than their western counterparts. So they use the cheapest parts where they know they're going to break, and design everything around it to be as easy as possible to replace.
The plane itself is cheaper, but the maintenance adds up quick.
Then again, it also means combat loss of an aircraft isn't nearly as big of a deal since most of the plane would be replaced soon anyway.
As always it's about tradeoffs.
@@Colonel-Sigma It's still a pretty big deal if you're struggling to produce them. Thing can take $1 to make, doesn't matter if you can't produce em, yk?
Also, the costs of the Russian jets aren't that much under the f-35 (and they aren't getting export orders, at least yet) and the F-35 is more modern with active developments and updates ongoing, with proven capabilities right now.
As it is, we will have to wait and see what the finished SU-57 pricetag is, as it's currently speculation
There was no SU-57 on Zhuhai Airshow, Sukhoi doesn't have any of them because those aircrafts belong to Russian Airspace Force. The 2 machine present there, piloted by the real Ace of Air Sergey Bogdan, were old T-50 prototypes with old Saturn engines.

@@NexIHateYT Lol there is no comparison between the 5th Gen F22/F35 & the 4th ++ Gen Su-57, it has the radar cross-section of an F-16. Re-skined single-seat Su-30. Massively overhyped capabilities, besides all that negative, its single positive is that it looks good.
Thanks for having a good balanced breakdown and not biased 😊
This guy's commentary is fantastic - made me laugh out loud a few times.
Keep up the great work pilot bro! 😋
3:08 I haven't heard "planes " and "skyscrapers" in the same subject for a looooong time, like 23 years ago or something
lol 😅
Hillarious
Nice respectful commentary. The SU-57 is what it is. Maybe it was just the camera distance and angle but it looked slow. Hats off to the pilot for a good show and making it look easy.
Well, if that so, then it goes to show how advanced it is. Most will fall off the sky if they move slowly. There is no point going fast for a show
Max, forget Putin's SU-57.
Enemies of The United States sooner rather than later will be dealt with by our all-mighty, invincible American heroes :
Superman, Spider-Man, Batman, Captain America and Iron Man.
Not to mention John J. Rambo, Rocky Balboa, Jason Bourne, Ethan Hunt, his British apprentice Bond... James Bond... and - last but not least - the first transatlantic Admiral, redoubtable Rachel L. Levine.
The airshow had about 159 overseas exhibitors from 47 countries and regions. So not only China.
And not a single country will be placing an order for the Su-57. No one needs +4th-Gen fighters anymore...
As an Englishman I can say that "Wanker" means something completely different on this side of the pond.😂

I was looking for this comment, nearly spat my beer out!
I share your posts all the time. Just shared this one out to X. You do good work. You deserve more followers. Thanks Max!
Appreciate that, thank you so much!
Thank you for being neutral. From Russia with love.
Thanks for your professional respect! Politicians of our countries must learn some manners from you. Cheers from Siberia! Let there be a friendship of all nations!
Russia has 32 su57 in total(9 prototypes out of 10 as one crashed and remaining 23 production varient) further more orders have been stopped as airforce wants it with new stealth al51 or izdeliye 30 engines which is also the most powerful engines on fighters producing peak wet thrust of 171 kilonewtons each and its bit smaller than al41 on su35. But Sukhoi has said that they'll continue producing the airframe of su57 but will deliver it when engine will be ready in 2nd quarter of 2025. Also they've got export order so they don't want to stop production and keep on the production rate like f35 or else it'll turn out like rafale where they've so many orders but production rate of 12-14 per year
The modern stealth with al51 already delivered. Your data is old
Didn't 2 get destroyed?
@@GCSloan95 No, this is propaganda and disinformation

@@NikolayMIA "Reports confirm that a Russian Su-57 "Felon," a fifth-generation stealth fighter, was damaged in a Ukrainian drone strike at Akhtubinsk air base in the Astrakhan region, approximately 600 kilometers from the Ukrainian front. The attack occurred overnight between June 7 and June 8, 2024, as indicated by satellite imagery showing fire damage and blast marks around the aircraft." This is old news
This is a prototype, so of course it does not have a great finish. There are nearly 20 SU-57 combat built but like this T-50 they are using a stand-in engine. They are waiting on the intended engine to enter production, it offers about 15% more thrust, better economy and supercruise. They have no sanctions problem with the SU-57 just trying to keep the production busy while waiting on the engine.
To be honest, the Su-35 is not much inferior to the Su-57, so the Russians basically have no problems with fighters.
@@yuriistetsenko5948 I think Russia always made good fighters and engines. I always thought the best looking fighter was the MIG-29 though.
I read that the new engine is facing delays because of supply chain issues. Best looking fighter to me is this or the Mig-31.
Russia has likely paused production of its Su-57 stealth fighter due to the significant impact of Western sanctions, which have severely restricted access to essential components needed for the aircraft, particularly advanced electronics and manufacturing equipment; essentially "crippling" the production line.
@@bosstwind7010 Of course, only recently there was a report on the delivery of two more Su-57 flights
Эффектный заход на посадку после резкого поворота - это заключительный элемент противоракетного пилотирования- "вишенка на торте". Безупречное мастерство и высший пилотский " шик " ))
в условиях воздушного боя не эффективно, никто не будет сближаться с ним и вальс танцевать, все решает система захвата и ракета, и чем дальше от противника тем лучше, а с электроникой у рф проблемы
The T50 is not really a training-machine designation but rather an early pre-Su57 prototype - any they are fully functional avionics. At that point things like flash panels and rivets are not a major concern. Parts of that air plane were still handmade. The aerobatic moves also look nice but are often wasting so much energy.
And yeah the Suchois in general look beautiful and nice to fly - if that translates into combat capabilities? Who cares. I am just looking forward to new nice looking planes in movies and games :)
this is a prototyp, if you watch the wings over russia documentary on the T50 they specifically show this airframe, IIRC Red 04 is the Engine prototype , it has even flown airshows with 1 prototype engine and 1 production engine...which says a lot about their trust in the AL41f's reliability.
Вот откуда взялись все эти недоблогеры🤦♂️ чел летавший в свое время на ф15 рассуждает смог бы ф22 сделать так де🤦♂️🤣
AA missiles are now killing things 150km out. Are dogfights even a thing any more?
Sure. Electronic warfare can degrade long-range capabilities. Also not all conflicts involve high-end missiles. Or it can be urban or crowded airspace, which also limit long-range engagement.
This is similar to how battleships initially thought long-range guns would make close combat obsolete, but reality proved more complex.
all the fancy maneuvers are very relevant for avoiding the incoming missile by confusing it's guidance system and not giving it enough time to readjust.
with both opposing jets being somewhat low-observable, and radars being able to pick you up at 20-40 miles without AWACS or Ground Radar, dogfights may become a real scenario again. So it makes sense to have a decent dogfighting capability, which both the Su-57 as well as the F-22 have.
@@OlegAryutkin not very relevant when missile is 4 times more maneuverable or is going at mach 3

@@MaxAfterburnerusa Please tell us your "professional" analysis between T-50 and SU-57, because we can't see the difference from Ukraine. For us looks like a cheap garbage like downed S-70 Ohotnik with stels screws. Cheaper than rouble.

I think the drogue chute was for potential customers that might feel some inadequacy in the length of their airstrips.
Interesting

replacing brake parts costs downtime, and money. I think it's a great idea to cut down the amount of heat, and wear on the braking system with chutes.
Этот показательный полёт преследовал всего лишь две цели. Первая это да, просто красиво как песня, пилот может летать так как поёт его душа. А вторая, это показать, что помпаж, как явление, можно не принимать в расчёт при полёте на этом самолёте. Показано, что ни один из режимов не приводит к этому явлению. Вот так. И да, Мощности там просто космос.
И на счёт лючков, которые типа "не сходятся". Здесь ещё проще. С самолётов сняли некоторое интегрированное спецоборудование и закрыли эти ниши лючками от прототипов. Всякое бывает. Вот и всё, по этому "не сходится" и цвет отличается.))))))
I still like the English Electric Lightning's vertical take off on full reheat, old but gold.
It could also go supersonic in a vertical climb.
Dear Max ... thank you for your professional analysis and comment 👍🏻 Because it is apolitical educated comment !! I appreciate it...🙋🏻❤️ Hi from Czech Republic 🇨🇿 Europe 🫡

The su57 is being used in combat in Ukraine. There are more of them than you say
А впервые они появились до Украины в небе Сирии
they must not be very effective then considering Russia hasn't made significant in nearly 2 years. What a shitshow.

Wants take Su57 to dogfight? Ok. Modern war technology does its best (actually US Navy too after meeting Zero fighters over half century ago) to avoid dogfight. Sorry, its about killing not fighting...
Why is this guy making these claims (buttery seats?) ...hmmmmm
The "SU" line of modern jets are sexy. The airshow stuff is definitely impressive but the chance of these guys making to a merge in today's tech is very slim. Love watching it tho.
Glad you enjoyed it
You don't quite understand the Russians. They rely on reliability, efficiency and low cost of production. They don't need one high-tech plane worth a billion dollars that will be shot down by a $10,000 missile.
And what's wrong with Russian technology, for example hyper sound, or do you think it's a simple technology?
@@-BEnC- They cant make a car... Hypersonic rockets are using chips from western washing machines...
"but the chance of these guys making to a merge in today's tech"
Dude, they wont be making it to a merge, because they already shot everything down that was coming at them.
Why don't you go look up the Nato evaluation of Soviet equipment from when they got their hands on the real thing back when Germany was reunited?
You know, the massive document where the single most common evaluation amounts to "better than Nato equivalent in every way except ergonomics".
Which caused the development of the next generations of Sidewinder and AMRAAM, just as the 2 most obvious examples. In particular the Sidewinder was found to be embarassingly inferior.
This was back when EVERYONE KNEW that Nato was quality and USSR was purely quantity.
Whoops, turned out that outside of the propaganda hype USSR was both.
Russians and Americans if they ever become friends ... They gonna do the most coolest shit on earth together!
Its not often that I comment or like a video but its so refreshing to see a professional admire the 'opposition', especially with a military subject. It says alot about your personality and how you must be an expert in your field.

There are some reports that state that AL-51F1 engine specifically designed for the Su-57 may finally be ready.
Its ready they ve made 20 of those and are currently operating in Kursk region
@@AlenB29 Where are you getting that info from?
@@AlenB29 Of the engine? The decade overdue engine? Where's that info from.
Этому комментатору очень нравится слушать себя. Если бы он ещё смотрел на экран при этом...
Btw it wasn’t about selling it to china. It’s mostly because a lot of countries have representatives go to the zhuhai expo to look at potential weapon systems. They’re marketing at those countries rather than china.
Wtf are you talking? China, the main target country, period!
And China as already the J20 and 35 as équivalent for the su57. They're lacking on the engine certainly because they use old Russian engine
@ that’s outdated info btw. The original j20 was using the al31. It now uses a Chinese engine called the ws15 purpose built for the j20 with serrated nozzles like the al51f and purportedly has better efficiency, reliability, and thrust than the al31 by a lot. All new j20s called the j20B are pushed into service with the ws15 and most old j20As are in the process of being retrofitted with the new engine.
@@itsericzhou didn't know it was ready for service, good for them if they dismissed their need of Russian engine
@@hman72y no worries. Info about the PLA is scarce and mostly drowned out by questionable sources.

Word me too this guy got a official navy mustache 😂
I think Russia has about 20 in service of the "mass" production version. It is not just the plane, it is the missiles they carry and the little side drone that can fly with them that makes this a very interesting system they have. And I believe they have even better updated engines coming in the next year for these bad boys.
"маленький" беспилотный аппарат это С-70 Охотник , по размерам он чуть меньше СУ-57
Их уже больше чем 20, а сколько готовых планеров на заводе- вообще секрет. Они ждут новый двигатель который разработан специально для них, он мощнее чем у самолёта с авиашоу
@@totto-netto больше, но, полагаю, не на много.
Ну да и ладно. Пока нам нужнее простые работяги типа Су-34. Так же радует модернизация Су-30 нового выпуска - из него сделали практически двухместный Су-35 поставив радар и двигатели от него.
Ну а Су-57 пока осваивается пилотами и промышленностью.
I would love to see this at an airshow. Used to see many shows in UK, 1980-1990. Sadly never saw an F-14 fly. Saw SR-71, lots of F15s, F-16s, F-18s, Tornadoes, etc. Loved the F15. I recall takeoffs followed by fast vertical climbs right deep into the clouds with the F15 at Mildenhall. It was like, "Where's it gone?" Awesome.
OMG, this plane didn’t even pass the G test-its wing frame cracked before reaching 8G. They showed it on national TV, and even after that crack, they still said, “Cool, it passed.”
Based on its airshow performance, it’s just a poor imitation of a MiG-29’s capabilities, and the MiG did it better in almost every way.
The Su-57 is just a parody of a 5th-generation fighter jet. There is no modern stealth technology here. The F-22’s production ended in 2011, and it has an RCS (Radar Cross Section) of 0.001-0.01 m², making it appear as a tiny, nearly undetectable dot-smaller than a bird-like a dragonfly in the sky.
Meanwhile, the Su-57, delivered only as a prototype in 2021, has an estimated RCS of between 0.1 and 0.5 m². Are you kidding me? This “airbus” would be shot down immediately as soon as it appeared.
This huge difference shows that the Su-57 is total nonsense, made to “scare” the gullible population.
All of this is classic showmanship for naive investors from totalitarian countries who invest in flashy performances rather than silent technology-like the F-35 demonstrated when it eliminated Iranian leaders without anyone even noticing it was there. BTW Iran using S400...
Long story short, what we’re seeing is just a talented airshow pilot performing a program straight out of the ’80s, proving that development has stalled and Russia is screwed. Screw those terrorists. All this plane can do now is terrorize the Ukrainian frontline.
ya ya, dude, in the SVO zone this is the only way this "Airbus" strikes with FABs, and with other calibers. Your vaunted American technologies don't work. Why are you shaking so much? Don't wet yourself.
У этого самолёта самая большая дальность ракет для воздушного боя- на 30% больше чем у F22
