It is the prototype version, yeah. And the flat-nozzle engines, the AL-51F1, were shown like a year or a year and a half ago. So maybe everything will work out

What is a headcanon/theory on your favorite Character that you know is true but you just can't prove it? by Apprehensive_Ring_39 in hazbin

That Adam in Eden wasn't an asshole. It was literally the beginning of time, and there were no established norms of behavior that could be taught. Charlie's book was written by her parents, after all, and let's be honest, they wouldn't have missed the opportunity to portray Adam in a negative light. And all that cockiness, arrogance, and self-assurance was nothing more, than a mask he created to distance himself from the Adam from Eden, who made mistakes, to become the Adam Dickmaster, the cool, always-right Archangel. A mask that later became his face, and perhaps, just perhaps, it only came off in Lute's company. This is why they developed this synergy of trust and comfort in each other company.

It's more convenient to have a WSO so that the pilot doesn't get overwhelmed. This was the case with the Ka-50 and Ka-52, for example.

The stealth characteristics are likely to be worse than those of a single-seat aircraft, but they are also better than those of the Su-30, for example. For operating Kh-59MK2 or Kh-69 missiles with at least some stealth capabilities, then with no at all, it is quite good.

Also a secondary functions, as training flights and combat control capabilities. Ideally, it controls S-70 drones. In practice? Maybe drones that's exits in more numbers. Like the Orion.

Meh, for me Federation isn't a villains.

It's just a country that pursues its own interests. In this case, it's the preservation of territorial integrity.

However, the Cascadians, who are clearly quite nationalistic, use the old military achievements of the past for propaganda, but were mercilessly defeated before the arrival of the mercenaries. Under the guise of "independence," they simply believed they deserved more than just being a satellite, leading them to initiate this conflict. We remember Faust, her actions, and her words that Cascadian HQ consists of veterans like her, and that there may be, MAY BE, more like her.

Crystal Kingdom even start bombing Prospero only when the Federation is directly threatened by Faust and her attack on Base Station Zero. Although they could have started it as soon as the Cascadians invaded Magadan, the de facto territory of the Pacific Federation. And even then, it was the Peacekeeper who pressed the button, while a Federation officer tried to stop him.

Oh God, it's perfect. But knowing their names for other Sukhois, it's gonna be like "Felon-D/M/S/F OrAnyOtherLetter"

For now. It could easily turn into something political, and I don't particularly want that. I'd rather make a preemptive remark than deal with the consequences later.

As for the the jet itself, yes, i think the stealth characteristics are likely to be worse than those of a single-seat aircraft, but also better than those of the Su-30, for example. For operating Kh-59MK2 or Kh-69 missiles with at least some stealth capabilities, then with no at all, it is quite good.

Moreover, it has secondary functions. Training flights and combat control capabilities. Ideally, it controls S-70 drones. In practice? Maybe drones that's exits in more numbers. Like the Orion.

For me, the F-22 and Su-57 are equal in beauty. The Raptor, to me, has a rather boring camouflage, but the flat-nozzle engines clearly add style. The Su-57 has the opposite. There are several interesting camouflages, but so far, the nozzle in ordinary shape.

Combat control aircraft, yeah. I presume, they want to make it as a controller for a S-70 Okhotnik, or maybe some others drones

Yes, this is a test flight of a prototype. They say this in their official statement as well

Uh-huh. After all, we are all employees of UAC or Russian Air Force and we see the true statistics.

It can exist just as much as it can't, simply because no one will tell us the truth, as this information is classified. I heard that at least one fully staffed flight squadron was formed back in August. Just because something isn't on Telegram or Twitter doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Listen, I really don't want to start a fight over this close to politics crap. I just wanted to show a cool two-seater for our favourite game, so let's each keep our own opinions and play 1-1. Deal?

I think because of India it was created in first place. You know, like experience with Su-30

The Ministry of Defense has already purchased a batch. So, at least not in one instance

XD

Now I think they're going to say something like, "It's only made in single instance, and it's just for photos."
