Russia’s Sukhoi Aircraft Company has a serial production of Su-57 fifth-generation fighter jets to the Russian Aerospace Forces, the office of Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov told the state-run news agency TASS on July 29.

“A state contract was signed at the Army 2019 international arms exhibition between the Defense Ministry of Russia and the Sukhoi Company for the delivery of a batch of Su-57 fifth-generation fighter jets. The Sukhoi has started to fulfil its contractual obligations,” TASS quoted the vice-premier.

In the framework of the contract, Sukhoi Aircrat Company is set to deliver 76 Su-57 fighter jets to the Russian Aerospace Forces.

The vice-premier’s office also confirmed that the first serial Su-57 will be delivered before the end of 2019.

“The first plane will be delivered to the customer before the end of 2019,” the statement says.

The Su-57 is a fifth-generation multirole fighter designed to destroy all types of air targets at long and short distances and hit enemy ground and naval targets, overcoming its air defense capabilities. The jet’s aerodynamic configuration ensure the low level of radar and infrared signature. The Su-57 armament will include, in particular, hypersonic missiles.

The Su-57 jet has been successfully tested in combat conditions in Syria.

Who will build them for Russia .

chris chuba

The same people who built the S400 for Turkey. The system that the U.S. is having a hissy fit over.

Toronto Tonto

Is that the one they had in Syria on display .lol.

Simon Bernstein

You mean the mighty s400 that aliens fear? rofl

Toronto Tonto

That’s the one , now they have cartoons of the s800 and soon the s10000 super all while the USA can shoot them down from space .

Antre

USA can’t even go to space without russian help you dumb bitch, they are inferior as always… just like your monkey brain.

vaderfater

Who tells this?

Toronto Tonto

That was for fun dumbazz , now we can go look and laugh at the Russian marvel of engineering .

Paul

It really shows what an uneducated moron you really are, by mocking Russian engineering. Your bias blinds you. I will celebrate the day when the US can’t just invade countries anymore because rise of other nations and it’s slow demise, but that doesn’t mean I think the F35 is a piece of crap. It’s a highly advanced jet. I’m glad it’s full of gremlins and costs a shit load to maintain which decreases it effectiveness though. Here’s a lesson for you, if want to understand something on a more informed level, drop your blind allegiance to bullshit western propaganda and grow up. By the way, the think tanks in the West know how good Russian missile defence systems are, why do you think they have invested so much time and money on stealth?

Nosferatu

You shall shit in your pants in a second when you see one of these flying over Toronto.

Jan Lavicka

Russia is not agressive like this, only uSSSSS is flying over other distant countries trying to start 3rd ww :)

occupybacon

Russia invades only neighboring countries, that’s why they don’t ‘need’ long distance technology

Turbofan

Example?

1691

U.S. Navy ships assigned to the USS George Washington Carrier Strike Group sail in formation for a strike group photo in the Caribbean Sea 29 April 2006. Such a formation would not be used in combat. What were you saying?

occupybacon

The guy above asked me for a random example so I found this beauty for him. It’s a nice photo, don’t you think?

1691

I think you have a serious problem in the upper part of your body.

occupybacon

Thanks, nobody ever complaining about my big phallus. Those who meant to are already dead by it.

Antre

Dumb little bitch, you have a big phallus in your mouth: 10 big black phalluses, and a few mexican in your butt raping you every day in that basement… Make AnUS Great Again.

1691

Poor boy. Your creator has deprived you not only of brains but manhood too.

Sinbad2

First honest statement you have made, yes you are a dickhead.

Simon Bernstein

That B-2 pilot must feel the safest because he knows no air defense radar on Earth can detect him past 15 kilometers. Plus the B-2 has not just 1, but multiple electronic warfare pods to jam ground based radars and missiles. The most protected and invisible bomber in the US arsenal!

Paul

If you enjoy the mass murder of civilians and the rape of a country’s assets, because so far, that’s all they’ve been used for.

Sinbad2

So you think that is a Russian invasion force?

Alberto Garza

i hope they kill maduro

1691

They failed a few times already. By the number of failures all over the show they might just go back home and hide cause rumor has it they ain’t that good.

Jaime Alberto GALARZA CASTANED

Surely you show your civilized nature by wanting a head of state murdered. You are a good specimen of the criminals you defend.

Antre

I’m sure he will live longer than you…

Simon Bernstein

imagine that, 11 aircraft carriers each with 90 fixed wing F-18s/F-35s. Add to that the 700 F-16s, 500 F-15s, 150 F-22 Raptors, 20 B-2 bombers, 50 B-52s, and 50 B-1 lancers. The US AF and Navy have unmatched supremacy and power.. more than china and russia combined

Sinbad2

There it is for all to see, how stealthy is that? Stealth aircraft can only be used at night, preferably without a moon. Well that applies to most people, for someone like you that can see hands that aren’t there it might be different.

grumpy_carpenter

That’s right. You should also know that the cost of projecting power through blue water navies has bankrupted or otherwise destroyed every nation that tried. Spain, Portugal, France, Japan, USSR and the UK all tried at one time or another to defend global empires but either were defeated, went broke or suffered a combination of both.

Take a look at the latest US budget and you’ll see who is headed for the scrap heap next.

Nosferatu

USSR did not go bankrupt. It was betrayed by its own elites, who wanted to be as rich as the western oligarchy, but could not become so rich because of the just society ideology in USSR. So they betrayed Russia and dissolved USSR in a hope that western global oligarchy will let them join in the super rich club. West did not keep its promise to Soviet elite…….

Toronto Tonto

They will never fly never mind this far away .

occupybacon

Ohh… the Russian stealth fighter that sacrificed a bit of stealth for more maneuverability that will be deployed against the high maneuverable Spitfire and Hurricane II, also best torpedoes for Admiral Kuznetsov the heavy torpedoes launcher

Turbofan

Making fun of something because you are terrified of it doesn’t decrease its capabilities..

Toronto Tonto

More verbal diarrhea from turboshizz .

Icarus Tanović

Were kinda shaky today, arent we, after seeing this super fly plane getting real?

Antre

Here is more diarrhea from my butt – for your face. Say thanks and swallow (and share some with fatbaconbitch)

Antre

Keep crying little bitch… americrap ‘stealth’ – destroyed by WW2 technology HAHAHA

occupybacon

Haha, the Serbian example of downing one single aircraft in 6 weeks of bombing. It happened to be stealth, so what? They launched all the SA missiles they had, Those missiles use Infrared to see the heat from the plane engine. It was just poor luck. If that was based of technology instead of luck, there were other planes downed too, like F-16 and F-18 which are not stealth at all.

Now check how many aircraft Russia lost in Syria because of technical problems and poor maintenance…half of them. And those are the best Russia has for now.

Sinbad2

You know that is a lie, the Serbs got a lock when the F117 opened its bomb bay doors. They launched immediately and took it out.

All stealth aircraft are visible to even very old radar systems when the bomb bay doors are open, and the F35 is easily targeted from the rear. Basically the F35 is a kamikaze plane, yes it might get in unseen, but it will never get away.

Bob

Russia has its own military doctrine – and designs and manufactures its own interceptors and fighter bombers that are clearly the definitive peer level competition to US designs – name another state that does this, or is even capable? Any other state.

Sinbad2

You are losing your mind, seek help.

omrizkiblog

SU57 is the best jet fighter in the world.. ☕

Toronto Tonto

Dream on

Vas

Well one thing is for sure, that no one gives a damn about Canada and their small, almost non-existence armed forces.

Andre Lopes

Lets be real here. Russia is running behind China. Every time China makes a real statement about their j-20, Russian officials make another statement trying to not look bad with their Su-57. The J-20 has engines covered, Sukhoi rushed to cover their engines. China started to test fly serial j-20 plane, Russia rushed to test it in Syria. China started to produce serial J-20, Russia placed a contrat for 76 Su-57. Now J-20 is operational in the first air-brigade and Russia answered saying the first serial Su-57 will be delivered in 2019.

Prince Teutonic

China’s jet engines are nowhere near the quality of US or Russian engines. They are still decades behind in that department…

Simon Bernstein

Don’t worry, he doesn’t realize the SU-57 has a RCS of only 0.1 m^2 while the F-22 has a RCS of 0.0001 m^2. He doesn’t realize how the F-22 can spot the SU-57 from 100km away, while the SU-57 can only spot it 30km away. F-22 and F-35 would clearly detect the SU-57 first and blow it out of the sky with its AIM-120C. The F-22 has a 70km starting advantage, and the F-35s radar detection range against a SU-57 is even greater since it uses the APG-81 radar, more powerful than the APG-77

Alberto Garza

the su is stealth only fron the front the f22 is stealth on all aspects the f35 is stealth from front and rear .

Simon Bernstein

More importantly, the SU-57 has an estimated Radar cross sec of only 0.1 m^2! the same size of a tomahawk missile on radar. That means if an F-22 can detect 1m^2 targets at up to 250km, it can detect the SU-57 at 60-100km, while the SU-57 can detect the F-22 at only 30-45km away. Meaning the F-22 will spot the SU-57 first

Redadmiral

If and it is a very BIG IF all you claim was true the Yanki mic would not have cut the Raptor’s production run at 36% of requirements. Face the facts, the airframe is an 80’s design it’s avionics are also last centuries tech and are well and truly obsolete. While their computer software systems have and continue to be problematic and impossible to upgrade as demonstrated by the failure to integrate firstly the AIM 9X and more recently the AIM 120D missile systems. Then their is the unit cost which supposedly ran to $345 million each. Yet when we look at the Capital investment program we see almost $70 billion sunk into the project and another $11 billion for procurement plus another $3 billion to upgrade its computer systems which failed completely. If Edward Snowden is to be believed it was twice that amount. Which would put the cost of those F22’s at a Billion a piece. And before I sign off; Raptor stealth is a myth. Even if it wasn’t the Russian newly upgraded version of the old soviet woodpecker radar system no longer tracks the aircraft but the ions that an object displaces as it moves.

Xoli Xoli

Then SU is Chinese made.Because Chinese are good in copy and paste with fake material.Just like Chinese women when you impregnate them their give birth to a fonkong.

Sinbad2

The F35 is not stealth from the rear, the engine exhaust stands out like dogs balls.

Fraggy_Krueger

But it doesn´t have the final engine yet, does it?

Prince Teutonic

Yes, I’m certain that first serial built Su-57s will use Saturn AL-41F1. Izdeliye-30 is still in testing phase so I think it’s still few years from serial production…

Nosferatu

Even with the first stage engine SU57 curently holds the world record for climbing rate.

Simon Bernstein

F-22 can detect a SU-57 from 60-95km away. F-35 can detect a SU-57 from 70-115km away. SU-57 can detect a F-22 from only 40km away SU-57 can detect an F-35 from only 55km away MURICA WINS

Boxman

Frankly the Russians are better off just modernizing existing fighters as a stop gap measure until their own stealth drones are ready for prime time. Throwing a bunch of money at a 5th-gen manned fighter plane is short-sighted because the next big thing in aviation is drones.

Nosferatu

SU57 has potential to be upgraded to optionaly manned plane.

Bob

Its a big ticket military program and there is much political capital and great deal of engineering knowledge to be gained from the project – particularly in new engine development and packaging that can be used in various formats, including drones, in future. Have to bear in mind NATO is hyper aggressive and expansionist at this point in time – so such an advanced program communicates range of messages on domestic and international level.

Sinbad2

NO For drones to function you need radio communication, most US drones are piloted from Las Vegas. So what happens if the enemy takes out your satellite? The Americans and French have already complained about hostile Russian mini satellites that have parked right next to their satellites and then moved away. Meanwhile China has been practicing shooting them down.

Simon Bernstein

wow way to ban me. LiveUAMap banned me to. But I’m back!

So, along with Syria Russia will, if needed defend Venezuela too! Love this. Too sorry, but Colombia can only dream of such a friend.

Xoli Xoli

Serial production for NATO Turkey.For Erdogan to oppress and suppress Syrian army for the benefit of Israel and USA NATO.

cechas vodobenikov

the inferior US f-35 is slower than a Cessna and costs double the su-57….this is why Indonesia, India, Kazakstan, China, Venezuela, etc prefers Russian warplanes…and soon Turkey. the f-35 depends upon stealth—however, Russian planes easily jam their their sensors w laser/advanced radar tech

Nosferatu

F35 is a 3rd generation aircraft equiped with Facebook technology. Its speed, agility, weapons load and range is no better than that of a MIG21, but it can connect to stuff (sort of).

cechas vodobenikov

I have read that the f-35 is considered 5th generation

Nosferatu

It is considered 5th generation. But in my statement i explain why it should be considered 3th genereation cos is no better than MIG21, which is 3th gen.

Assad must stay (gr8rambino)

Would be so cool if they could put laser cannons on it like in star wars

gustavo

It has passed all the tests, congratulation,.
