Sea Strike: Is F / A-18 Still Cool and Relevant?

126

Eric Tegler of Popular Mechanics has done a pretty good job trying to explain to everyone why the F / A-18 is still the main attack aircraft of the maritime aviation and will be relevant for a long time in this role.

Why the F / A-18 Is Such a Badass Plane.



A bold move considering the F / A-18 has been in service since 1983. That is, soon 40 years.

To begin with, the aircraft has only two official victories during its long service: over the Iraqi MiG-21s during the first Gulf War, in Operation Desert Storm. Two F / A-18Cs in the bomber version, that is, armed with MK 84 bombs and Sparrow and Sidewinder missiles, when they were intercepted by two Iraqi MiG-21s, successfully shot down both interceptors.

We'll talk about losses at the end. Let's fix the fact that the plane is combat and toothy, because this was the first and so far the only case when a bomber successfully fought off interceptors.

The Hornet (Hornet) is a multi-faceted aircraft. Based on the abbreviation of the name - fighter-attack aircraft, fighter attack. The fruit of the US Navy's long deliberations on what a universal sea-based aircraft should be.


In general, story The F / A-18 wasn't easy. The plane, having made its first flight in 1974, turned out to be of no use to anyone, having miserably lost the competition for a fighter role in the F-16 Air Force, and at sea did not gain an understanding of the essence either. The Navy preferred the modernized F-14 to him, and only the intervention of Defense Secretary James Schlesinger himself made them "change their minds."

In general, the US Navy dreamed of an aircraft that could be based both on aircraft carriers and on coastal airfields. The dream of unifying the Air Force fleet and the Marine Corps was very real and useful at the same time.

In addition, the new aircraft could replace two outdated models at once: the F-4 fighter and the A-7 attack aircraft.

But the main thing was that it had to be both a simple and inexpensive aircraft capable of solving the tasks of a fighter and an attack aircraft at the same time.

Actually, this practice is not new for the US Navy and the ILC. Back in World War II, F6F Hellcat F4U Corsair fighters could carry bomb loads as heavy as the dive bombers of the time, successfully combining fighter and strike capabilities in one aircraft.

Of course, jet aircraft turned out to be faster and more efficient than piston aircraft, but the principle of application remained. More precisely, the American naval command continued to want the aircraft to combine both functions of a fighter and an attack aircraft.

The legendary F-4 Phantom demonstrated the potential of a fighter / attack aircraft during the Vietnam War. However, the Navy's concern for air superiority and the protection of its aircraft carriers from enemy aircraft led the Navy to order the F-14 Tomcat in 1969.

The Tomcat was a very good aircraft, but too expensive. And the price ultimately sentenced him, and the naval command set off in search of a miracle, that is, a better and cheaper plane.

The choice was rather limited: either the prototype of the single-engine General Dynamics YF-16, or the twin-engine Northrop YF-17.

The YF-16 will enter service with the Air Force as the F-16 Battle Falcon. The Navy, however, preferred the aircraft's two engines. After Northrop merged with McDonnell Douglas, the two defense companies jointly unveiled a heavily redesigned version of the YF-17 for the Navy. The aircraft was named F-18.

Initially, the aircraft was to be produced in three models:
- single F-18 to replace the F-4;
- single A-18 to replace the A-7 Corsair;
- double training TF-18, which could play the role of a fighter.

However, the manufacturers took the path of maximum simplification and combined the single-seat variants into one F / A-18A, and the two-seater were renamed F / A-18B.

Sea Strike: Is F / A-18 Still Cool and Relevant?

The aircraft had to be qualitatively redesigned for new tasks. The fuel reserve was significantly increased, despite this, the range was only 10% more than that of the A-7 and very slightly better than that of the F-4.

The new aircraft, now officially called the Hornet, took off for the first time in November 1978. The tests revealed many problems: excessive take-off speed and take-off roll. They had to be quickly resolved by changing the size of the horizontal stabilizers. Insufficient transonic acceleration was also found. Engine modifications solved the problem somewhat, but not completely. And the combat radius of the strike fighter of 460 miles was, as mentioned above, slightly better than that of its predecessors.

However, none of these shortcomings were enough for the fleet to abandon aircraft. The first F / A-18A entered service with Marine Corps VMFA-314 Squadron at MCAS "El Toro".

The F / A-18 was immediately appreciated not only for its strike accuracy and reliability, but also for the fact that the aircraft required no more than half the hours of maintenance for the F-14A and A-6E.

Later, another serious drawback manifested itself: when flying at high angles of attack, deformations and cracks in the tail began. By then, McDonell-Douglas and Northrop had parted ways, and the liquidation fell on McDonell. The company developed special repair kits that could fix the problem.

The Hornet received universal recognition after participating in Operation Eldorado Canyon against Libya in 1986.

The success was not that deafening, but such that orders immediately fell on the Hornet, and by 1989 the plane was in service with the Air Forces of Canada, Australia, Spain, Kuwait and Switzerland.


Complaints about insufficient flight range did not stop. To solve this problem and make the aircraft a more efficient night and all-weather aircraft, McDonnell-Douglas developed and introduced the F / A-18C and the two-seater F / A-18D in 1987.

The C / D included upgraded radar, new avionics and air-to-air / surface missiles AIM-120 AMRAAM, AGM-65 Maverick and AGM-84 Harpoon anti-ship missiles. Added new generation infrared night cameras, which increased the combat capabilities of the aircraft. Plus, they installed new F404-GE-402 engines, which produced at least 10% more thrust.

The F / A-18 naval fighter / attack aircraft took part in several military conflicts.

In addition to Operation Eldorado Canyon in Libya in April 1986 and the Gulf War (liberation of Kuwait) in 1991, the Hornet fought in Yugoslavia in 1995 as part of Operation Deliberate Force, in Operation Desert Fox. (bomb strikes on military targets in Iraq, 1998), took part in the military operation in Afghanistan (from 2001 to the present day), in the Iraqi war (operation to overthrow the Saddam Hussein regime) in 2003-2010, in the operation "The Return of Odyssey" (bombing targets in Libya, 2011).

It cannot be said that the life of "Hornet" was strewn with roses. In the same war with Iraq, the irrecoverable losses of the F / A-18 amounted to 5 vehicles. One plane was shot down by an Iraqi MiG-25, one S-75 air defense system, two planes collided in the air, one crashed due to engine failure.

During the operation of the F / A-18, 235 aircraft were lost for various reasons. Out of about 1500 issued - a bit too much.

Yes, the Hornet shone during the Gulf War with its precision and high combat readiness. And in other operations "Hornet" showed itself in exactly the same way. But nothing is eternal, and more than forty years of service is pretty much. There are few aircraft in the world capable of boasting such a career.


While the Hornet dominated the skies, the fleet began looking for a replacement. The 1980s program to replace the A-6 strike aircraft led to the creation of the McDonell-Douglas A-12 Avenger, a fairly stealth aircraft with advanced radar capable of carrying high-precision weapon.

Separately, the Navy sought to replace the F-14 with a variant of the F-22 Raptor, convenient for aircraft carriers. Meanwhile, Grumman has offered upgraded versions of the F-14.

Alas, the plans were not destined to come true. Humanly, the Raptor did not fly, and the price rose to the skies. The USSR collapsed, and there were no rivals at the new level. Therefore, the F-22 was abandoned altogether, and later Defense Secretary Richard Cheney also sentenced the F-14 improvement program.

And "Hornet" continued its service as if nothing had happened.


What explains such a high demand for the F / A-18 family, which, as of December 2017, exceeded the milestone of 10 million flight hours? There are several reasons.

The simplicity of design made the aircraft easier to manufacture and maintain. Hence the potential for improvement. The high reliability of the machine made it possible to calmly develop new upgrades. Quite radical, such as the "Super Hornet", which used plastic fuel tanks, stealth elements and a weapon container made using "stealth" technology.

It is worth noting the fact that the special versions of the "Hornet" turned out to be simpler and better than on the basis of the same F-22. The same EA-18G "Growler", an electronic warfare aircraft based on the F / A-18, turned out to be a very serious machine. All in all, instead of a gun, they installed a powerful computing unit - and the effect is obvious.

The two-seater version proved to be useful in solving problems associated with increased workload on the pilot. For example, long flights followed by strikes against multiple targets.

And, of course, a wide selection of weapons. Air-to-air missiles, winged, anti-ship, guided bombs, and more.


As a result, the F / A-18 became the main attack aircraft of the US Navy and ILC, quite deservedly. In the combat composition of the ship's air wings, it accounts for 60-70% of the total.

F / A-18s are not in production, but there are no plans to remove them from service. Considering that not all is well with the F-35B / C either, it is safe to say that the Hornets will fly to the point of exhaustion.

            If the Chinese feel a real threat, they will not hesitate to order the SU-33, while there are show-offs from both sides, can you build your own deck, if it presses down, will the SU-33 come down when they launch the third aircraft carrier there? In 2022, we are waiting for orders for the SU-33, or the MiG-29K, and the F-35 will not be allowed close to China, there is a risk of a real air battle, mattresses will not want to disgrace themselves

              To restart the Su-33 is to restart it. The price of the plane will be good if it is 2 times higher than the standard drying. Saying "I want" and being able to do are two different things.

                Of course, not a particularly big specialist in aviation, but as far as I understand, the Su-33 is a modification of the 27th, what prevents it from being put back on the conveyor, in an updated version?

                  I'm not a very big specialist either, but this is the case.
                  The Su-33 defeated the MiG29K because it was a minimally modernized Su-27 adapted for flight from the deck. This level of the Su-27SM is good if. Accordingly, there were no problems with its production in the 90s, but with the MiG-29K, which was made on the basis of the still unfinished MiG-29M, that is, not a combatant, but a modernized aircraft, there were.
                  Now, to bring the Su-33 up to date, everything must be changed: both the engines and the avionics. And this is a huge and long-term work, according to the results of which even a glider will not remain from the Su-33. If the Su-35 had an acceptable weight, it would have been easier to spoil it, probably.

                      But in order to replace it with something that is not completely outdated and requires cardinal changes in everything up to and including the glider. Even the Bars will not fit into the Su-33, let alone the Irbis

                        As far as I understand, the Su - 33, Su - 27 glider differs only in strength and chassis. For a more rigid landing on the deck, and a jerk of the aerofiner. The first time I hear that there were some unique engines. Rearrangement of the bow? If a Su-27 was made from the Su-34, then it is possible, especially since such cardinal alterations will not be required.

                        In fact, this is five minutes before the last engine for the Su-27 family. Then there was a small revolution - the Su-30 received a dvigun with an UHT, that is, with a deflected nozzle.

                        Nobody made the Su-27 from the Su-34 - the Su-27 was taken as a base for the Su-34. And it took the USSR 4 years to roll out the prototype, and the first plane similar to the truth appeared only 7 years after the start of work on it. And then it was about experimental aircraft.
                        With the modernization of the Su-33 it will be about the same

            Potential skirmishes will not necessarily take place at sea, against enemy decks. The US Navy attacks coastal states around the planet and carrier-based aircraft have repeatedly faced an enemy based on land. Examples - Korea, Vietnam, Libya, Iraq, Syria, Serbia, Panama ... The enemy is certainly not equal, but not deck-based at all. There were also losses.

        Not only. A single deck vehicle removes the main operational question: in what proportion to equip an air group with fighters, attack aircraft, tankers, etc.
        Before the introduction of a single deck vehicle, AB had 2-3 variants of the composition of the aircraft wings, which they were equipped with depending on the task at hand. But, as Sprague's experience shows, tasks can change right during the operation: they sent you to bomb and storm the coast - and then suddenly the enemy's fleet falls out on you. smile
        The Yankees even made a deck tanker on the basis of a deck drummer: when working at a large radius, he refills the drummers, and at a small radius, he removes the OPAZ and retrains as a drummer.

                    No, it's all fairy tales, that's just to demolish the entire dam, it is necessary to lay more than one thousand charges, to blow up at the same time, the dam is not the genital organ of a dog, you just can't tear it off, the bombs are like that, on trifles, maximum, well, they pierced one shield, water will quietly flow , they will bomb to scare the workers, and it is necessary to damage it with ammunition, and the dam does not consist of one wall, at least 2, both must be blown up, otherwise the shield will fall and block the water

    Eh and with whom to compare? In other states, during the operation of the f-18, carrier-based aircraft either completely died or is in its infancy. In terms of combat effectiveness, there is also no one close, because no one fights as much as the United States. In terms of capabilities, the deck raphal is close and even superior, but there the carrier is constantly being repaired, and the number is minimum compared to the hornet. The super hornet will be the main one for a long time, and even when the f-35 becomes the main one, it will not completely replace it. The competition has already been announced for a new tender.

    I have nothing against Hornet, but most of the articles about it are clearly an order from Boeing, which carries only one message. The F-35 still needs to be finished, 18 is ready and tested, buy ours better.

        There is such a thing in the 29th and 33rd decks, as it were. And when there was that combat missions in the same Syria there was a minimum. We worked with Khmeimima. I am aware of the land version, but it is only worth comparing the marine versions in this context. And what is funny about this story is that no aircraft of this type has a combat path and capabilities. Because there are no aircraft carriers comparable to them.

              RF CCS for 2020 g inclusive should have:
              PAK FA - 12 pcs. These will be machines for trial operation in the troops, so it is hardly worth considering them in the total quantity.
              Su-35C - 98 machines are tentative. The contract for 48 machines has already been executed, now the second one is being executed, on 50 aircraft until the end of 2020.
              Su-30 M2 / CM - according to rumors, it is planned to bring to 180 machines to 2020.
              Su-33 - not clear, let's leave 14 machines.
              Su-27 CM / CM3 - 61 machine. In general, they initially said that at least 100 machines would be upgraded, but recently something has not been heard about Su-27CM3. Perhaps the program is minimized?
              MiG-35 - 30 machines
              MiG-29MT - 44 machines
              MiG-29UBT - 8 machines
              MiG-29KR - 19 machines
              MiG-29KUBR - 4 machines
              MiG-31 - 113 upgraded to 2020.
              In addition, an estimated number of un-upgraded vehicles will remain as part of the Russian Air Force: 78 Su-27, 69 MiG-31 and 120 MiG-29.


              I then latched onto the MiG-35s, which were pure nonsense, but you rejected my insinuations with great fervor. So we are waiting, sir))) And not only MiGs.

                It is too early to talk about the purchase of the MiG-35 (although the military does not exclude such a possibility). The aircraft will be able to go into production from 14-16 years. - will have time to put a few dozen. But will Poghosyan's "lobby" make it possible? Question…

                      I do not think that these aircraft will be ready for 2020


                      Quote: Andrey from Chelyabinsk
                      Further - well, let's say a miracle happened and the F-36 by the 18th year is absolutely and completely ready. How will it be purchased in Europe? Take Turkey - According to Lockheed Martin, in 2018 the Turkish Air Force will receive the first two F-35s ordered as part of the 11th initial production batch (LRIP-10). The second order for four vehicles will be completed as part of the production batch of LRIP-11, starting in 2019, and the next vehicles will go after 2021. by 2020, the Turks will have several of these aircraft in trial operation. You will understand that after a plane is declared combat-ready, it often spends years in elite units, which reveal its full capabilities.
                      Italy? Two planes, and so far nothing is heard of the rest. Norway? Plans to declare initial combat readiness by 2020, complete - by 2025, the Netherlands? 35 fighters in the period 2019 -2023, that is, they will not be combat-ready in 2020
                      That’s actually the answer to why I don’t think it makes sense to count the F-35 in Europe.

                      And which of what I said was not confirmed?
                      Deliveries to Turkey deflated, Britain received 18 aircraft and
                      In December 2018, it was announced that the F-35B fleet of the British Air Force had achieved initial readiness status for combat use from land. It is planned to achieve initial readiness for combat use from the sea in December 2020 after the delivery of 21 aircraft.
                      Norway
                      On November 6, 2019, the Norwegian Air Force announced that its fleet of F-35A Lightning-2 fighters had reached a state of initial readiness for combat use. The Air Force command plans to announce the full readiness of the aircraft for combat use in 2025.
                      etc. So where was I wrong?
                      I wrote about American F-35s in an article
                      F-35, which, most likely, as of 2020, will remain in a semi-operational state

                        It's very funny to read all of you here. That is, 18 F-35V England, which have not reached combat readiness for operations at sea and only the initial combat from ground airfields - stunned, which are combat-ready. And 88 Su-35s, which have completely passed the state, which have been supplied to the Aerospace Forces since the beginning of the 10s, are, well, never combat-ready.

                        I will not even ask how from 2011 or even 2012, when mass production began and 2020 years have passed until the beginning of 12. And yes, 88 cars were produced a little like that - because a dozen of them were made for the Knights, it's a little ridiculous not to count them in serial production.

                        Oddly enough, they are highly likely to be combat-ready, since the pilots have already been trained for them. However, I am ready to admit that this is not so, and that it will take several months to fine-tune the aircraft.

                        Given that the squadron is 12 aircraft, no less than six. But rather more, I think that now incomplete squadrons are being formed, pilots are trained, and then, as the Su-35 is ready, they are transferred to everything ready.

                        On November 6, 2019, the Norwegian Air Force announced that its fleet of F-35A Lightning-2 fighters had reached a state of initial readiness for combat use. The Air Force command plans to announce the full readiness of the aircraft for combat use in 2025.

                        The Western classification of readiness is irrelevant. In the work cited above, you included in the combat-ready for 2020 (and 70% of the combat-ready of the payroll) vehicles, which in 2017 existed in the form of more or less running mock-ups. And now, frankly, they exist in exactly the same form.

                        Yes, the key aspect of the combat readiness of the fives is working in the network, with AWACS or other flying and non-flying searchlights (including the fives themselves according to the light / damage scheme). It's not for you to shoot down a Su-30 from a cannon. Small countries, which, in addition, have only NATO-wide AWACS and not their own, to achieve such combat readiness is not easy. But others, others, to work out such combat readiness has not even begun.

                        If we compare the total estimated number of the most modern aircraft of the Russian Federation (Su-35/30, MiG-35 / 29SMT / K), which, even without taking into account the modernized MiG-31BM, by 2020 there should be about 383 machines with the most modern NATO machines (440 "Eurofighter" maximum, plus 159 "Rafale", and a total of 599 cars), it turns out that the European NATO countries have more than a half-fold advantage. But if we compare the number of combat-ready vehicles (at 70% for the Russian Aerospace Forces and even 50% for NATO), we get 268 versus 299, i.e. almost parity.

                        The whole world can define combat readiness in any way, but in the same way, I find it strange that this has to be explained. And if there we count on those transferred by the industry to the troops, and then upon reaching a state that is poorly understood by you (how many Su-35s are ready for use from an aircraft carrier? Why does such readiness matter for you in the case of British aircraft?) - no, we do not need such hockey ...

                        The problem is that in the European part of Russia there are one and a half Su-35S regiments, the 159th and a little 790th + Kubinka. The partners in the 4 national air forces have a number of fives comparable to the 159 regiment. And then you need to very carefully clarify what combat readiness is in Hotilovo and Orland and what is in Kholilovo, which is so lacking in Orland.

                        And I'll tell you what is not in Hotilovo, but Orlanda is.



                        Against this background, you know, the question "whether the Russian Aerospace Forces have any chances against the Norwegian Air Force" is much more acute than the outcome of your imaginary conflict with NATO as a whole.

                        In real life, partners have already turned gray, debugging software on airplanes. Since nothing is known about Sukhoi's torment, I personally conclude that they are not doing this at all.

                        Revealing the next military secret
                        The Russian Aerospace Forces conducted an experiment on the use of a "flock" of Su-35 fighters under the control of a 5th generation Su-57 aircraft in real combat conditions.
                        According to a TASS source in the military-industrial complex, a group of Su-35 fighters was involved in the "pack", the role of the command-staff aircraft was played by the Su-57. "The experiment was carried out in real combat conditions," he added.
                        Another source confirmed the nature of the tests and explained that in a battle formation, which pilots call a flock or swarm, information exchange between fighters is carried out in real time: the information and control system of each aircraft automatically processes data from both its own sensors and sensors from other aircraft.

                        In general, the automatic exchange of information between airplanes and airplanes and the ground point was worked out on the good old MiG-31

                        The whole world can define combat readiness in any way, but in the same way, I find it strange that this has to be explained. And if there we count on those transferred by the industry to the troops, and then upon reaching a state that is poorly understood by you

                        You don't understand it well. The Su-35 has completed state tests and is fully operational. The F-35, with its initial stages of readiness, sits somewhere where the Su-35 was in 2013-2014. That is, technically, our aircraft is combat-ready, the F-35 is not. It was from here that I counted the number of combat-ready aircraft. And you are now talking about the readiness of the formations to use these aircraft, well, the F-35 is much farther to them than the Su-35, because the F-35 is fully ready only months after the technical readiness is reached.

                        If bombs are thrown from an airplane at a real target, then these are combat conditions, and not close to combat ones. The fact that for a fighter they are hothouse is another matter. Even such a simple war imposes requirements on the availability of aircraft, and this seems to be the order, since Khmeinim manages with small orders, which means that the cars rarely get up and quickly prepare for repeated flights.

                        The Su-35 was officially put into service in 2017, there are no restrictions on its use. The test cycle has been completed. That is, all the tasks have been completed. What these tasks were is another question. But, at least, the Su-35 does not have the problem of limited supersonic flight and other issues related to the functioning of the aircraft as such.

                    I then hooked on the MiG-35, which were pure nonsense, but you rejected my insinuations with great fervor.

                    Let's clarify :))))
                    I believed that 30 MiG-35s in service by 2020 may well be. The reason for this was the words of Borisov
                    "the expenditure of the State Armaments Program for the period up to 2020 includes the purchase of 30 MiG-35 aircraft"

                    And I wrote
                    That is, money is planned for it. Another question is that any program can undergo changes, and if you have data that the MiG-35 was removed from the GPV ... well, if you had, you would have brought

                    You did not provide such data, from which it follows that in 2017 there was no reason for deleting the MiG-35.

                      Of course, until 2017, we were never lied to. This is a very recent phenomenon. If I don't confuse you, your thoughts that something is not being told to us appeared after unexpected, let's say, interim results of the programs on the fleet, relatively recently.

                        Even if you look at the publications - in 2016, when I started the cycle "Program of shipbuilding of the Russian Navy or a very bad feeling." Realistically, of course, much earlier.

                        Back in the 29s, it became clear to everyone that the MiG 27 was a dead-end branch, it did not have any important advantages over the Su-30 (35/29) branch, and those that are not relevant, but the disadvantages are critical for Russia. Price 35/30 is 27% cheaper. The statistics of air battles against Western fighters and our Su XNUMXs confirms this, it is catastrophically not in favor of the MiG.

                        I do not have. Are you suggesting to ignore this contract? No question, let's ignore it. I can give you these figures
                        It is known that according to the State Arms Program for 2011-2020, it was planned to purchase 37 production MiG-35S fighters for the Russian Air Force (VKS) worth about 37 billion rubles.

                        This is bmpd. At the same time, it was originally planned to order flashes in 2013. And the cheapest Su-35s of the 2009 contract were 66 billion for 48 units.

                        Let's. Interest Ask.
                        Su 35
                        The contract of 2009, 48 pieces for 66 billion rubles, 1,375 billion per unit, the dollar exchange rate is on average 32 rubles, the price in dollars is 43 million.
                        Contract in 2015, 48 pieces for 100 billion rubles. 2.08 billion per unit, the dollar exchange rate is on average 63 rubles, the price in dollars is 33 million.
                        Mig 35
                        State Program in 2011, 37 pieces for 37 billion rubles, 1 billion per unit, the dollar exchange rate in 2011 is around 30 rubles, the price in dollars is 33,3 million dollars.

                        What we see. It is most correct to compare the moment of 2011 and Su 2009. In rubles, the difference is 37,5%, in dollars, the difference is 32%. You can also play with the exchange rates, but the order of the numbers is approximately clear.
                        The main thing that goes beyond the price of 4 MiG-35, you can buy 3 Su-35. Quantitatively, the difference is small, but qualitatively, the difference is huge. All the more so for Russia, with our spaces. Where the MiG-29/35 is really needed is the Baltic theater of operations, where the advantages of the MiG can be overloaded. But making an airplane for the sake of one theater of operations is strange, so Mig 29/35 is a dead-end branch. It needs to be done even cheaper, but it is possible using 1 engine.

                        I agree. I dug a little here, it is possible that there NI generally confused the MiG-35 with the MiG-29M2

                        Your calculation method is clear to me. It is logical, but it does not take into account some of the nuances. The fact is that the price of military products is formed not on the basis of the dollar exchange rate, but on the basis of official data on inflation. We know the value of the contract from 2009 for certain - 66 billion rubles, and we know that the contract should have been executed until 2015 inclusive. At the same time, the contract for the MiG, planned in 2011, was to be signed no earlier than 2013, and it was evidently executed later, that is, already in the second half of the GPV. Accordingly, the time difference between these contracts takes place, and the rubles for which the MiG-35 were going to be purchased is significantly cheaper than those for which the Su-35 was actually purchased. That is, the cost ratio will be even greater than 1,375 to 1

                        Hardly. The logic of recent years confirms this. Su 30/35 are purchased, MiGs are not. Moreover, they are sold out and written off from our Air Force. MiGs were sent to India from the presence of the Air Force.

                        I would not boil it down to just the financial component. The nuance is that the Su-30/35 is a very interesting offer in the segment of heavy fighters, where they have few competitors - perhaps only the F-15, and it can fight the 35th only in the Silent variant. which is very expensive. But the MiG-35 has a dime a dozen competitors, despite the fact that until recently it never entered service with the Russian Aerospace Forces (which is very bad for marketing), plus a decent radar has not yet been presented for it.
                        And so - Egypt still bought the MiG-29M2 for fifty dollars

    The Su-27 family is also being made for 40 years.
    For example, the Irkutsk aircraft plant raised the first aircraft - I-14, I think, in 1936. Su-27UB in the 86th. It turns out that the plant produces dryers for almost half of its life.
    In the previous 40 years, 15 aircraft were accommodated. There were no lots, but they were large.

    As an answer to the headline, yes. It will be relevant for some time, since it is cheaper than the same F-35.
    There is no competition on the high seas yet. To land where the enemy has something to threaten the spread of "democracies" without a solid ground and air safety net, a separate AUG will not stick, and against the partisans it is too expensive.
    IMHO, F-35s and drones will complement the AUG air wings, but the main flight load will still be carried by F / A-18s of varying degrees of modernization. Exactly until the moment when the superiority of technology appears (is it?). While the "workhorse" is coping with the garden, there is no need for a robotic tractor.

    And that both wars in the Gulf are an objective indicator of the effectiveness of NATO-vskaya aviation ??? The USA in the 20th century after the war with Japan is constantly at war with various Neanderthal countries around the world - compared to the economy and the US army in the Stone Age !!! Countries like Cambodia, Afghanistan, Vietnam and Congo !!! And even in these battles between Goliath and David, the United States did not always win adequately !!! And in cases such as Somalia and Vietnam, they simply openly and shamefully fled from the BD theater !!!

    But there were also other wars of the NATO countries, and they include both the Gulf Wars and the Libyan adventure !!! These are the US wars with an adversary at the level of feudalism in comparison with the American development of the economy and armaments !!! These opponents of the United States were at least able to purchase some foreign weapons and somehow use them. So, these same wars of the 2nd type were not waged by the United States alone, but were hammered together international coalitions of states - in order to attack one in a crowd and win guaranteed !!!
    Therefore, all the talk about the great Abrams or the invincible Hornets in both companies in Iraq is just a propaganda fake lie that has nothing to do with reality !!!
