Israeli satellite recorded the base of the Su-57 in Syria
The satellite operator, iSi, discovered two airplanes standing close to the runway.
As the newspaper notes, these first pictures fully confirm the information about the arrival of Russian cars in Syria.
The publication, citing Israeli intelligence, writes that the Su-57 is still functioning in a limited mode, and, probably, the Middle Eastern country will become the place of their combat running-in.
“Su-57 is the first Russian fighter of the fifth generation. It has low visibility for enemy systems, has high survivability and maneuverability, is able to move with supersonic speed without boost. According to its characteristics, it is on par with the American F-35 fighter-bomber, ”the material says.
Recall, as of October last year, the Israeli Air Force had seven F-35 aircraft, while one of the aircraft was under repair allegedly due to a collision in the air with two birds during a training flight. However, this incident coincided with the news about the shelling by Syrian air defense of an unidentified air group invaded by the Jewish state.
In February, the Russian Defense Ministry strengthened the air group in Syria, transferring four Su-35С fighters and four newest Russian 5 fighters of the Su-57 generation there.
