January 8, 20215 yr Author Sounds like alien space craft. 👍 This is an old outdated engine they are using until the MKII engine is available. Russian Su-57 Fails To Get Second-Gen Engine; Yet To Become A ‘True Competitor’ To US’ F-35 Jets Quote The RAND Corporation quoted a former Sukhoi engineer, who claims the 76 operational models that the Russian Federation Air Force is expected to receive during the 2020s will not have the intended second-generation engine, which contradicts the Russian aircraft maker’s claim of outfitting the batch with the new engines. It remains unclear when the second-generation engines will be ready for powering the Su-57 fighter jets. https://eurasiantimes.com/russian-su-57-fails-to-get-second-gen-engine-yet-to-become-a-true-competitor-to-us-f-35-jets/ Quote The Russian A&D industries are also lagging behind in the development of advanced avionics, which has led to repeated delays in the induction of fifth-generation fighter aircraft. This is blamed on unsuccessful attempts at capitalizing on the post-Cold War revolution in information technology by the Russian Federation’s A&D industries. The situation has been made worse by the US sanctions, including the separation of Ukrainian A&D industries from Russia. Its been in development since 2002 and still not equipped with the latest engine. Edited January 8, 20215 yr by martin-w
