New engines are not made so quickly, this is work for another 15 years. The letter that you read as the letter M is not it, it is 2 letters L in Russian transcription Л. That stands for Flying Lab (летающая лаборатория). English is not my native language, sorry for the mistakes.
That Salyut nozzle, they proposed AL-31FM3 and a follow on for PAK-FA but Sukhoi chose Saturn. Salyut nozzle clearly vectors differently from AL-41F1 and AL-31FP style nozzle.
ooh i don't know... perhaps that huge Russian Drone could use a flat nozzle. What about the new Russian Bomber.But why does "the larger aircraft" need engines whose thrust nozzles can rotate around the longitudinal axis? See at 0:32 in the video (please view at 0.25x speed).

Anecdotal evidence says they thoroughly tested it between test airframes and choose the best working one.I just wish they got rid of that disgusting digital cam pixel paint. It looks so tacky and juvenile, like something a teenager would do to their car. The big blocky pixels just look bad, especially around the cockpit. It really just breaks up and distracts from the shape and curves of the aircraft. It’s like a makeup artist hiding the true shape of a face.

It isn't about style.
Painting digital camo has no functionality whatsoever. Zero, none…it’s a waste of resources and money to mask off and use multiple colors.
On another note, it looks like they finally added serrated edges to the rear engine nacelles. A welcome and needed addition if they really want to lower RCS. Hopefully they do something about the square access hatches and IRST-T, the IRST-T is just plain laziness and definitely adds to RCS and that is not an option but fact.
Not a single word was said about the AL-51F in this video.View attachment 752428

Feel free to send feedback to Sukhoi, what can I say.Painting digital camo has no functionality whatsoever. Zero, none…it’s a waste of resources and money to mask off and use multiple colors.
Pls, take a look at sequences from 15:28 ....

maybe you should use VPN, i can open the link without VPNThe link is dead!??
I noticed something about the nozzle material. The black section looks like a textured composite, it looks like Saturn spared no expenses. The fitment looks very tight too and the exhaust flaps when opened are properly sealed off unlike the F-22 flaps that have the internals exposed. I do like the F-22 but this really pissed off many F-22 fanboys
That helmet looks great, the Zsh-3 should have been phased out long ago. In never looked like it had good ergonomics especially the oxygen mask that was far too large, far too long and interfered with downward head mobility.
Hopefully they fit the new helmet with a proper oxygen mask. Other than that I would be curious as to the new capabilities. Looks like it has a built in HUD and all around sensors, I would guess they slaved it to multiple sensors such as IRST
Try it in any way other than through a large operator. Some local connection, it also works in the EU.The link is dead!??
Nope. It's a mirrorSingle eyepiece
You do know that the F-22 nozzles are in the shutdown maintenance position in the photo? The divergent flap sides are fully hidden by the sidewall when the engine is operating.I noticed something about the nozzle material.
