The main question here is whether the radar system of either of the two fighters will be able to detect its enemy in the air. Because no doubt both fighters would receive support and help from their ground forces, but there is always a chance that this will not happen.
First, letโs note that the F-35 and Su-35 have high-quality electronic warfare systems, and their ability to jam enemy radars is perhaps one of the best in the world.
We will not go into details of all avionics, details about its operation and construction, as this type of military technology often goes hand in hand and it is difficult to find big differences. If we going to do all of these things, so means reviewing the codes of each of the programs, and American avionics alone has nearly 9 million lines in its code.
The main advantage of the F-35, which was stealth technology, is already beginning to disappear. The Russians (recently Chinese, Germans and Japanese) have begun to do quite well in overcoming this advantage and have stealth detection systems.
It is quite clear that the F-35 will intercept the Su-35, as the latter is not a stealth. The question is the opposite โ could the Su-35 use its radar to detect the F-35?
The answer is yes. The Russians are already using the latest model of their Irbis-E radar system. Powerful and high quality radar, which at a distance of 90 km. detects targets with a radar reflecting surface of 0.01 mยฒ. For reference โ this is the real reflective surface of a bird. The F-35 stealth technology has a radar reflecting surface <0.1 mยฒ, which logically leads us to the conclusion that it will not be a problem for the Su-35 to intercept its F-35 radar.
Thereโs more. Recently, the Indians managed to intercept the Chinese stealth J-20 with the help of a thermo-measuring system integrated in their Su-30. The Su-30โs radar did not detect the stealth fighter, but the thermal system detected an increase in temperature levels in a certain line at high speed.
The Japanese also came out in support of this statement, adding that stealth planes can be detected without problems with satellites in close orbit. This answers many questions, most notably why the United States and Russia are increasingly launching military satellites into orbit.
Given the latest statement (the Japanese), the communication network built by the Russians is also a way to detect such technology.
But back on the radar. In recent years, the Russians have been developing their ground-based radars on some air defense systems, which will be discussed later. They have managed to transfer this practice and experience to the Irbis-E radar on their Su-35. As we saw above, this radar has the ability to capture low-reflecting surfaces.
It is this radar that has caused dozens of Western military experts, including American ones, to claim in the last two years that the Su-35 is Russiaโs best air weapon at the moment, which would face the F-35 without any problems. Itโs not the weapons, itโs not the maneuverability, itโs not the speed โ itโs the radar!
