This was awesome drama! I was thinking it would be hard for you to outrun those Felons. The Su-57, as modelled in DCS, is a kinetic beast. I don't think anything else has quite the same thrust. I remember in one of your videos it was adversary, I think you were in an F-18, and it went vertical at the merge, accelerated through supersonic going straight up, then flipped over and used the vertical separation to position itself for a shot at a nearly-stalled out Hornet who just couldn't follow. Very powerful. I think it even edges the Raptor in power-to-weight, at least it seems that way in DCS.

@@sety5591 That was one of the causes of delays for the F-35 program, since many early production models were made before the design was mature, and the need to modify the production line and already-made airframes led to significant delays and cost overruns. However, now that the design is basically mature, the F-35 is being produced and delivered at a rate of more than a dozen every month, literally more than the annual Su-57 production rate every single week. If Sukhoi were capable of delivering more airframes after so many years and billions of roubles in development costs they would be without question. There's no explanation for the situation as it is but corruption, or incapability, or more likely both.

@@GrowlingSidewinder Taking their grand total up to like 7 right? They really don't want to use these in any form of combat

[@jaek__]

@@andrewholt1258 With the Russian Ministry of Defense cutting some of the requirements for them to be delivered, I highly doubt they're exactly itching to use their short supply of Felons. Best guess is they are begging Sukhoi to deliver as many Felons as they can whether or not they are 100% operational capacity for appearances sake.

@@andrewholt1258 no, they are 11 of them Serially model of SU57 which is operational batch, while the separate batch which is actually an prototype model or test model of SU57 which is T50 around 12 of them.

@@GrowlingSidewinder From what I have read few months ago, 1/2 squadron would be doing sorties in the east. I don't know if the Su-57 is being actively used right now, but they definitely tested it few times in a real engagement. That's 100%.

11:45, you couldn’t have timed that any better, unfortunate you couldn’t have dodged the second one. Good show. 👍

Where's the MiG-31 launching R-33s at you from 400km? can't really remember, can the russian A50 be used to target or assist targeting enemies for the MiG-31?

[@BaseSerpentMessmer]

God damn, those su-57's are probably the most beautiful plane I've seen

[@onerxowns2202]

It is fucking spaceplane from Elite Dangerous or something

[@someguardsman]

Really good! Definitely felt the skill with that plane, heres to hoping next time you'll score a Su 57 kill!

[@WarriorKidd06]

You basically just showed how insane it would be to send these fighters over there to fight against that force. They are one way tickets

[@mlrd6622]

Please more Su-57 videos, I love 'em.
