You’d have to be a fool to believe this. The Su-57 has not even shown the ability to shoot a missile from internal bays or shoot its guns in flight. There’s been no evidence to support this, and Russia lies all the time. There’s no reason to believe it now.

@noballsbigshaft4486 Shooting guns in flight isn’t as easy as it seems. There’s immense vibrations that can knock off the gun sites. Much more difficult is getting air to air missiles to launch internally, especially short range IR seeking missiles. They’re used in dogfights so they need to be ejected away from the aircraft at all sorts of angles. You can find videos here on YouTube of the F-22 shooting Sidewinders inverted. I think if the Su-57 had these capabilities that Russia would have shown them by now.

@noballsbigshaft4486 Russia does a lot of things that don’t make sense, and they quite often hype up their weapons capabilities. If Russia truly had a fully developed stealth fighter, they would be using it in Ukraine. It would allow Russia to achieve air superiority, which would give them a huge advantage. And if it really worked as you think, Russia would find export customers, but nobody is interested, not even India.

@noballsbigshaft4486 Algeria hasn’t signed any contracts, and the Su-57 would help make a huge difference, especially against Ukraine’s small and outdated air force. If it was really a 5th generation fighter (which there’s some doubt) it would also allow Russia the capability to take out artillery and HIMARS. India backed out for many problems, especially its lack of stealth features and its engines. They also had concerns with its avionics. Eleven might not be a lot, but they could help make a difference. Right now they’re doing nothing. Just curious, how do you think that Russia is going to be able to produce them on mass scale when Russia is so heavily dependent on western parts for its advanced technology?

@giovanideoliveirasalvador8605 Yet another clueless idiot. The F-22 entered service in 2005. Since then what war has the US fought in that had an Air Force? Did the Taliban, Al Qaeda, or ISIS all of a sudden have fighter aircraft. There was one time in Syria when US aircraft were attacking Russia’s Wagner group and the F-22 flew cover, but guess where Russia’s Su-35s were? They were at a nearby base with their tails between their legs afraid to engage them.
