"на самом деле, нет". 
Wish list or actually in-progress procurement attempt?
Not sure why they'd stick it on the face of HQ if it wasn't at least at some level of consideration within the procurement system.Wish list or actually in-progress procurement attempt?
If Algeria were to go for a future purchase of the Su-57 they should wait until the Su-57M is ready for export.
Hmm sorry if repost.. but. This one is rare.
an RCS testing in Voronezh.
Source please?

Well, i guess it won't come 'off' then.Algeria MoD HQ mural
Um ... Sometimes a fresco, it's just a fresco.

Any examples?I haven't seen the whole thing, but they make some bold claims, I don't think necessary ones.
I just found this video, seems to be a translated version of a video already posted in youtube but in Russian, I haven't seen the whole thing, but they make some bold claims, I don't think necessary ones.
I haven't watched the whole thing yet, but the first "bad translation" I picked up is when they're in the back of the AN-12 he says "we're at 30,000 ft." No you're not. If you were, you would be freezing and passed out. It's safe to say that was supposed to be 3,000 ft. Also, of course they will make bold claims, all weapons manufacturers do that, it's called marketing. I'm just watching it for the cool video of the T-50/Su-57 in flight.![]()
Edit 2: The T-50 can fly low! lol. It then flies over at around 100 to 150 ft above the ground and the announcer states it flew 15 ft above the ground.
There is a lot of boasting without evidence. "Note that the airplane is the Su-57, because if you add 35 to 22 it's 57 and this airplane is better than both."
Edit 3: Apparently the Russian designer doesn't understand the U.S. High Low Mix of fighters. There is a lot of boasting without evidence. "Note that the airplane is the Su-57, because if you add 35 to 22 it's 57 and this airplane is better than both." Yeah, some of the comments are that silly.
To be fair, the chief designers of Su-57, its engine etc can hardly go on National TV and say, "Yeah, its a bit crappy compared to the F-22/F-35 but hey its the best we could do". Don't think that'd be a good look in Putin's Russia....
Such a nice plane. But please, please, please ... stop with that pixelated paint job. It ruins everything.
seems like the Mi-26? next to it also has the same scheme.Such a nice plane. But please, please, please ... stop with that pixelated paint job. It ruins everything.
There are 3 parts. It's worth a watch for the footage, narration is pretty crap.

The su-57 has several aerodynamic features missing from the f-22 and f-35; Levcons, full moving tails, the leading edge slats seem to also move independently to aid roll, and tvc that aids yaw. One thing I haven't seen the su-57 do is a high-speed high g turn, which makes me think that Sukhoi still has not lifted the g-restrictions for the jet. The f-22 does not seem to have a problem doing high-speed maneuvers. This brings to the question the structural soundness of the layout Sukhoi picked for the su-57.
