Russian fifth-generation fighter for the first actual combat? Recently, many Russian media have revealed that the Russian army's ace fighter Su57 participated in the bombing of Kiev .
and four aircraft were sent directly, which was very disturbing, and this can be said to be the first time in the world.
After all, fifth-generation fighter jets are still very rare. As a treasure of various countries, is dispatched so many aircraft at a time. It seems that Russia has really invested heavily this time.
So, how much do you know about Russia’s Su57? How powerful is the Su 57 fighter ? Compared with the fifth-generation in the United States, what is its strength?

Friends who just came in will follow me and don’t get lost. There will be more exciting content to push in the future. You can also hold on to like it long to express your strong support for the motherland. We will continue to say.
The Soviet Union's military development
After World War II , the world returned to peace, but after the baptism of the war, countries have also recognized the importance of air supremacy to a war.
At this time, under the leadership of two superpowers, the world launched an unprecedented research on fighter jets.
various fighter jets are beginning to emerge one after another. Fighters are becoming more and more advanced.
This also made the fighter begin to show huge attack capabilities, missile-loading cruise, high-altitude and high-speed flight, and various technologies have been supported by the fighter.
At this time, the strength of the fighter is enough to reflect a country's military strength.
Russian fighter
At that time, the Soviet Union had developed the fourth-generation fighter with excellent performance, MiG 27 and MiG 29. These two fighters were the most advanced fighter jets in the world at that time, and could be said to be the best of the world.
But this obviously cannot meet the Soviet Union's idea, in order to improve the performance of the fighter jets.
The Soviet Union proposed a development plan for the fifth-generation fighter jet.
But unfortunately, the Soviet Union later disintegrated. Although inherited most of the Soviet military industry, this plan was still shelved.
At this time, the United States, as its former rival, achieved qualitative transcendence. The United States' fifth-generation fighter F-22 was born and successfully established the title of the fifth-generation fighter.
As a fifth-generation fighter, it must have super stealth capabilities and supersonic cruise capabilities.
Mig27
also needs to have global combat capabilities. These are fully reflected in the US F-22.
At this time, in order to be able to fight against the fifth-generation fighter of the United States, Russia re-engineered the development of the fifth-generation fighter.
Russia developed the fifth-generation fighter
In 1998, Russia determined the R&D mission of the fifth-generation fighter, and then Russia's Sukhoi company began a tense R&D process.
By 2005, the production model T-50 developed was announced.
Until 2007, Russia built a prototype of the fifth-generation fighter T-50.
But at this time, Russia felt the economic difficulties and brought India.
India saw that it was a fifth-generation fighter, so it rushed up directly. After all, the third brother was rich and powerful. As a result, the cooperation between the two countries was incomplete for some reasons.
The fifth-generation fighter T-50
At this time, the combat nation continued to carry out research and development, and finally completed its first test flight in 2010.
However, the subsequent development of is still very difficult, and Russia's fifth-generation prototype experienced various failures during the test flight.
This delayed the fifth-generation fighter jets that Russia originally planned to mass-produce equipment in 2016.
Su-57 was officially born
until August 2017, when , Russia changed the latest name to this fifth-generation machine, which is the Su-57 we are now familiar with.
Until January 2021, the Russian army finally officially accepted the first Su-57, which also announced that Russia's fifth-generation fighter jets had finally entered the Russian army's equipment system.
From here, we can also see how rare it is for Russia to dispatch four fifth-generation fighters at the same time. After all, fifth-generation fighters are too rare.
Su57
So after saying so much, what is the strength of Russia's fifth-generation fighters?
Su 57's combat strength
First of all, since this fighter is a fifth-generation fighter, it must have its own outstanding side.
serves as a fifth-generation fighter against the United States. Su 57 not only has a brand new appearance, but also has many powerful functions, such as the stealth ability we are familiar with, and the excellent ultra-long cruise capability.
Because Russia is vast and sparsely populated, and because of local reasons, many regions cannot establish aviation base for a long time.
This requires that Russia's new generation of fighter jets must have super long cruise capabilities. In terms of range, the Su-57 is indeed better than the US F-22.
When supersonic flight , the Su57's range exceeded 1,500 kilometers.
When flying at subsonic , the range can reach 3,500 kilometers, which has exceeded the range of the US F-22 fighter .
US F-22 fighter
In addition, as a combat nation, it naturally attaches great importance to actual combat effectiveness. Therefore, in terms of ammunition load capacity, this Russian fighter is also the best among fifth-generation aircraft.
In order to achieve a larger range of strikes, Russia also loaded subsonic cruise missiles.
In addition, Su57 is also equipped with anti-radiation missile , which can pose an effective threat to the enemy's early warning system.
If you think this is over, then you underestimate Russia too much. Russia also prepared supersonic air-to-air missiles.
Anyway, it is necessary to vigorously strengthen your fifth-generation machine and make your fifth-generation machine a huge deterrent.
It is obvious that , the current Su 57 is one of the rare fifth-generation aircraft in the world, and its strength is indeed much greater than that of ordinary fighter jets.
Of course, the Soviet Union paid a very high price for it, and it almost became difficult to give birth. After all, everyone knows that although Russia inherited the genes of the Soviet Union.
American fighter
However, compared with the strong industrial capabilities of the Soviet Union, Russia is much worse, which also caused the Soviet 57 to go through twists and turns.
So, why does Russia have to build a fifth-generation fighter jet?
In fact, this is not difficult to guess. You should know that Russia, as the country symbolized after the collapse of of , is also a major power in the world today.
However, Russia's military has not developed much and has always been considered by the outside world to be reaping its capital.
As external pressure increases, for Russia, the country also needs to seize the time to develop a fighter jet.
After all, his country is just a fourth-generation fighter, and it is still preserved from the Soviet era.
However, in the international world, there are many third- and a half-generation and fourth-generation fighter jets, and at this time, the Russian fourth-generation fighter jets do not have any advantage at all.
The fourth-generation fighter of the United States
, especially the US F-35, has even greater challenges to him. This makes Russia's fighter jets less attractive internationally.
As a major military exporter, Russia naturally does not want its fighter jets to lose competitiveness.
Therefore, Russia will inevitably increase the research and development process of the fifth-generation fighter, which will lead to the current Su57 fighter.
Of course, this is just a symbolic meaning, which can increase the outside world's confidence in Russia.
According to relevant data, Russia's aviation equipment export rate is 50%, if Russia's fifth-generation fighter jets cannot be built.
This makes Russia's strength much lower than the outside world, and there is no latest fighter jet in Russia that can choose to export.
Russian fighter
This is equivalent to giving away a piece of fat meat. For Russia, which is now in extremely difficult economic conditions, it is obviously unwilling to do so.
and the emergence of the fifth-generation fighter Su57, undoubtedly protected half of Russia's territory.
Of course, although Russia, as one of the few fifth-generation fighter jets in the world, proves its military strength, there is still a lot of controversy over the Su-57.
is a fifth-generation fighter, and , especially the fifth-generation fighter in modern warfare, has an invisible performance that cannot be avoided.
However, Su57's stealth performance is not very good. According to data, the reflective area of the Su57 radar is 1.4 square meters, while the F35 in the United States is 0.01 square meters, which is enough to see the gap between the two.
Russian fighter
You may not know much about radar reflection. In simple terms, as long as this value is smaller, it means that the fighter has a strong stealth ability.
So as a fifth-generation fighter with excellent performance, if the stealth problem cannot be solved by , it will inevitably leave hidden dangers in future wars.
, as the most significant feature of the fifth-generation fighter, makes many people believe that the Su 57 is not qualified to be a fifth-generation fighter.
However, Russia has begun to improve the above situation.
He plans to use plasma stealth technology and some unique absorbent materials to reduce the radar reflection area.
Through these measures, can also make the reflective area of the fighter reach the level of 0.1 square meters.
In addition to this, Su57 has another very worrying point, which is Russia's industrial strength.
Industrial strength
Due to Russian economic problems, Russia's Su-57 research and development has been greatly affected.
Today, The United States has more than 500 F-35s, while the number of Russian fifth-generation fighter jets is a mystery.
, however, certainly not much. This is bound to be a lot of pressure for Russia, and the road to go is also a long way, and it is also a big difficulty for Su-57 to increase its output.
Of course, Russia has high hopes for this fifth-generation fighter jet of Russia, and I believe that Russia will further improve it.
, and this fighter is also a heavy fighter. You can imagine how powerful it is.
's powerful bomb loading capacity and battery life have unlimited imagination, so for the Su-57 fighter, we are still worth looking forward to future development.
As a weapon that Russia wants to export, the successful development of this weapon has also attracted Russia to pay great attention.
The industrial system is strong
After all, if these fighter jets can be exported, will be able to make up for its funds well and relieve the pressure on Russia. This is also a timely help for Russia.
Of course, the collective dispatch of fifth-generation fighter jets we have heard now, such a large-scale operation is indeed exciting.
I have to say that combat nation or combat nation is indeed tough enough.
