You're a little wrong. The AL-41F1 engine, which the SU-57 is currently equipped with, was put into mass production in 2018 and it is capable of developing supersonic speed without using afterburners. The cruising speed of an aircraft with these engines is 1300-1800 km/h (M = 1.0-1.5). The AL-51 engine will be more powerful and less noticeable in the thermal range.

@ My understanding is that super cruise is a holy grail that no one currently has. Could you please indicate your source for the info that an earlier generation engine already has this? I can read Russian, so please include any Russian source for this.

@@greggemerer8251 , Even Su-35S can do supercruise without afterburner, but with lower fuel/weapon load. Tested and confirmed.

The f22 can supercruise at mach 1.8, many 4th gen planes can to this too, unsure if the f35 can though.

@greggemerer8251 я знаю что обделалась так же твоя мать, как с пульверизатора жидкого дала по врачам , по стенам и по тебе , 50 лет назад, когда тебя рожала.

you right - it's not because of sanctions. It is rather engineering challenges going on there - the bar is realy high in that engine's capabilities and requirements. It was pitched to VKS as a world champion

not overly complicated but complicated enough to save soldiers life's. these are evolving machines on the field. and there is 'time' issues.

@@RealTakunia You completely missed the point.

@@milanmilanov348 Yes, there are complex machines. Because it comes with different modules: medical transport, tank destroyer, mortier, troop tranporter, command post, etc. We have a local company that produce this ligh vehicle and is called Vlah. Also there were some specifications that needs to validate with our local company, and it was not suited.

@@claudiu8426 This is not complex machinery/military tech when compared to fighter jets, air-defense systems, etc, etc. A number of countries in the region produce such technology locally as part of their military industrial complexes. I am surprised that Romania didn't or at least not at the level that would have allowed them to produce their own machines without the help of a foreign country.

Les blindés turcs ont fait leurs preuves en Géorgie et en Ukraine voilà pourquoi les roumains en ont commandé autant

Keep lying to yourself. Remove sanctions from Russia and see what happens.

Yep - there dozens of countries making 5th generation fighters engines…

@@alexpavlov3535 Три страны (Франция,Испания и Германия) создают совместно один двигатель. Не пишите чушь.

@ если вы не понимаете сарказм - то сами не пишите чушь…

don't cry. it is clear that your propaganda has taught you to hate all countries that NATO cannot openly attack for fear of them. but this does not mean that you should consider everything that others invent to be bad. This engine is being developed for its aircraft in Russia, and then the main thing is whether its aircraft manufacturers will buy it. I assure you it will be a gorgeous engine, so it can be developed for as long as necessary. Many hastily developed engines in the West have a lot of problems and some took 30 years to develop. don’t worry about other people’s planes and engines, if you don’t threaten this country, don’t try to set up a military base, a biological laboratory on their border, organize mass unrest through your agents and overthrow governments friendly to them in neighboring countries, then no one will attack you and won’t call you enemy, as they like to do in the USA. because the United States is weak and it is important for them to demonstrate strength so that others do not understand this.

Thank you very much!
