Sukhoi's Su-35S completes 500th test flight

. . .
....well russia is an old and trusted Beasts producer, gotta love this bird.
 
.
India should have got this beauty…

Yes, IAF should have ordered SU-35 instead of 42 su-30s, your political chimps are to be blamed but never the less give them credit for Rafale procurement.

It is best and have commonality with MKIs.. why not buy 5-6 squadrons at summer discount price??/

Why would you want to do that when the MKI is sufficient..
And the quoted upcoming Mki Mk-2 is supposed to incorporate features present in this aircraft..
That will have greater commonality.

India has prefers two seaters. Su-30MKI will be upgraded with AESA radar which is superior to Su-35s PESA.

Su-35 also has AESA

It has some stealth in it. also better engine.. Su-35 MKI will be a good option to replace old and as a interim solution if provided fast.

This machine can be placed along with EFT and Rafael coz all these machines are 4.5++ gen fighter. Comparing it with 5th gen fighet is inappropriate.


Like Gambit already said, no plane is stealth, its just you need eye to see them :) . But question is whose eyes are more powerful and who has camouflaged itself???

Yes, but the engine of Su 35 is much more powerful and will allow much more features than that of Su 30MKI.....:agree:

In that case thought.. those fighters designed from the outset to be extremely difficult to detect will win that fight.
fighters like the F-35, F-22, PAK-FA and J-20..
All others like the Su-35S are limited by the burden they carry of their lineage's huge RCS..which is only reduced so much by structural changes that are possible.

Why dont you just fit a derivative of that engine on the MKI??? :rolleyes:

For those who know russian (or use a translation site) you can view this detailed comparison between the two aircrafts here:

Never depend on western sources for getting your info on Russian military hardware...

Which radar is fitted on this one? IRBIS-E or NIIP AESA? What are the detection ranges for stealthy targets?
 
.
How we can say these are Stealth when Weapon hard point are external.... when fully loaded it will have Huge RCS..... how we can Compare F -35 and SU 35

Does SU 35 have stealth Coating, Internal Hard point, AESA and other featured of Stealth...

SU 35S is super Strike Aircraft




Notable changes include the removal of the dorsal speedbrake, additional internal fuel, and plumbing for AAR and external drop tanks. A quadruplex digital flight control system is used. The Item 117S engines, which use key components of the Al-41F supercruising core, are employed. The Su-35S is the first non-US fighter with substantial sustained supersonic cruise capability, which provides this aircraft with an enormous energy advantage against conventional opponents in most regimes of air combat.

The avionic suite is fully digital. The centrepiece is the Tikhomirov NIIP N035 Irbis E (Snow Leopard) 20 kiloWatt class steerable hybrid ESA radar. A new glass cockpit is employed, using large area displays. The Khibiny electronic warfare suite is employed, with new wingtip DRFM technology jamming pods.

The UOMZ Sapsan E Electro-Optical Targeting System pod is likely to be offered as an alternative to the licenced French Thales Damocles targeting pod

The aircraft is intended to carry the full spectrum of Russian air to air and air to ground guided weapons.

Given the large performance margin in the Su-35S design, it has considerable long term growth potential. It is likely that it will become the platform for the first Russian built large aperture AESA radars, as well as the R-172 very long range AAM.

In strategic terms the Su-35S is a game changer, as it robustly outclasses all competing Western fighter aircraft other than the F-22A Raptor. Deployed in significant numbers it is capable of changing the balance of power in any region where this occurs. This reality does not appear to be widely understood in most Western air forces, or DoD bureaucracies. Aircraft IOC will be achieved in 2012.
