Russia showcases ‘Hunter’ heavyweight combat drone on its maiden flight

The engine exhaust will make some problem.

These called real cockpits, in development of cockpit ergonomics/design Russians are way way back then west/USA @undertakerwwefan
Rafael is better the rest I don't think so .
 
this will give tough competition to u.s in any conflict,How much no russia will be able to produce is a major concern

Hunter is probably going to be too late to see action in Syria. Oh well, there's always Africa.

Hunter is expected to be equipped with AESA attack radar based on Su-57's main AESA (out of Su-57's 4 AESA radars) and be powered by Su-35's engine generating 32,000 lb of thrust and equipped with TVC.

Well even if it's ready today ,what's the use of sending it to Syria when rebels there can't even destroy an archaic ababil drone. If you want to test it you must do it against somebody who at least have basic airdefence system. You can test its attack capabilities in Russia against simulated targets . for its stealth capabilities my suggestion is instead of using your strategic bombers to skirt NATO airspace use it and see at what distance the are gonna to scramble their fighters or use patriot to lock on it.by.
By the way I'm sure we will gladly test its stealth capabilities against our airdefence :p:.you knew friends are for these times. As I said that drone have a weakness and that's its engine exhaust from some angle it will be detected even by old Radars .

This post of yours shows your immaturity/ lack of knowledge about basic aerodynamics laws/ rules, AESA probably but you have no solid proof that this UCAV has AESA if it has its from Su-57 tech, and and this UCAV is most probably subsonic, because its design is FLYING WING/BLINDED WING and these designs can't sustain supersonic flight, so this UCAV will not have AL-41F1 type engine with a thrust of 32,000 lbs with afterburner because with this engine its too much thrust to weight ratio with engine is useless for this UCAV, most probably its uses RD-33 type engine without after burner, TVC is not needed because This UCAV is not air superiority UCAV but strike/CAS UCAV hence Russian will more focusing rearward reduced IR feature rather then to give this UCAV TVC capability, which often used air superiority jets, so stop wet dreaming, wishful thinking, and retard assumptions of yours @undertakerwwefan :hitwall::hitwall::crazy::crazy::crazy:

It's too large for RD-33 plus the engine is set as AL-31F.

Russia won't make anymore manned planes after Su-57. Hunter is the first unmanned plane after Su-57. Hunter is used to hunt bad people's pickup trucks in Africa.
 
RD-33 don't have enough power to power Hunter. AL-31F can. Also they want a fast drone to minimize ETA after calling in air strike.
Shut up you don't know the length of this UCAV, so how can you assume that its not using RD-33, and i think this UCAV is 2 time smaller then SU-27 series /Su-57 jet can easily install RD-33 and power is no problem for that @undertakerwwefan
 
The engine is clearly AL-31 family.
Shut up, JF-17 has single latest version of of RD-93 (RD-33) and its almost 50 feet long and have good thrust to weight ratio is nearly one, this UCAV is smaller than JF-17, so RD-33 is no problem for this UCAV, if this UCAV using AL-31F then it is using without after burner (17,000 -18,000 lbs), because after burner is not needed for Strike/CAS UCAV because main focus for stealth UCAV is stealth for its survival not speed you brain fart, keep farting from your @$$ baseless @undertakerwwefan

JF-17 has RD-93 from the 1990s. The latest version of RD-33 is RD-33MK from the 2001 which as FADEC, no smoke, 20,000 lb of thrust. MiG-29K/M/M2/SMT all have RD-33MK.
