The dates for the start of tests of a new communication complex for Su-57 fighters have been announced

The Russian fifth-generation fighter Su-57 will receive a modernized communications complex, the work is being carried out by Polyot Research and Production Enterprise, which is part of the Roselectronics holding. The complex is entering the testing phase.

A modernized communication system for the Su-57 has been created, and prototypes are currently being manufactured that will be tested as part of the aircraft. According to the press service of the holding, testing is scheduled to begin this autumn. There is no more detailed information.

Prototypes of the modernized communication complex are under production, they are planned to be tested in mid-autumn, including as part of the Su-57 aircraft

- leads TASS Roselectronics message.

The fact that the Russian Su-57 fighter will receive a modernized communications system was announced exactly a year ago at the MAKS-2021 air show taking place in Zhukovsky. Then the Ruselectronics holding announced the start of work on an improved version of the S-111 communications system for fifth-generation Su-57 fighters.

As a result of the work carried out, the S-111 complex should become lighter and more compact, in addition, its communication channels will be able to receive and transmit information over a greater distance, and their reliability will also increase. Data transfer will be much faster.

Su-57 is a fifth-generation Russian multifunctional fighter designed to destroy all types of air, ground and surface targets. Currently, the fighter enters the troops with the engine of the first stage, by the end of 2024, 22 out of 57 SU-76 fighters will be delivered, which are manufactured by KnAAZ under a contract concluded in 2019. The Su-57 should be re-equipped with three aviation shelf. The first production fighter was received in December 2020.

They should have been in the army yesterday

[neworange88]

Well, these are 22 Su-57s of the first stage. Now they are being produced in small series. And then the production of the Su-57 of the second stage, created as part of the Megapolis R&D, will begin.

The Su-57 will be equipped with the most modern equipment, while no fundamental changes will be made to the design of the aircraft. In addition to a completely new engine, the aircraft will be equipped with a package of modern avionics and on-board systems. The development of a new modification at the stage when the creation of the basic version of the fighter has not yet been completed is necessary so that later the manufacturer begins to produce the upgraded aircraft without wasting time. One of the components of the modernization of the Su-57 will be the replacement of hydraulic drives of control surfaces with electric motors. This should reduce its visibility to radar, increase maneuverability and increase survivability in case of damage. It is planned to complete the development work at the end of 2024, which will make it possible to move on to the production of an improved modification of the fighter.

So I'm talking about those 76. How many years have they been promising

Aircraft to create this is not for you to wave a saber on the couch, general of couch troops!

So then don't promise "major" every year. Keep the word

Alexander Ivanovich Pekarsh - Russian engineer, aircraft designer, director of the Yu.A. Gagarin Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aviation Plant since 2006.
Hero of Labor of the Russian Federation (2022).
The number of employees is about 17 thousand people (2007), 13,5 thousand people (2011).
Since January 1, 2013, KnAAPO has been included as a branch in PJSC "Company" Sukhoi ".

Judging by the fact that the director of KnAAPO was awarded the title of Hero of Labor of the Russian Federation in 2022, it means that everything is just fine with him!?
I have not found more recent data on the number of employees (after 2013) anywhere ...

[Carlos Hall]

The great hope of Russian aviation with the permission of the magnificent Su 35. There is news that it has already been released in Syria, and in Ukraine it has received a baptism of fire.

[AdAstra]

Or maybe for now do with the one that is and supply it to the army and as much and as quickly as possible? Otherwise, it is possible to develop new things on it ad infinitum.

Aircraft, like other military equipment, are constantly being upgraded, from the first to the last day of operation.

[AdAstra]

It is not really in the troops in its original form, but it is already being modernized.

Especially. The new aircraft requires more improvements and "bringing to mind". You apparently never dealt with army equipment. The technical term "childhood illnesses" is of course unknown to you.

[Nexcom]

"Children's" diseases are inherent in any new technology - even an airplane, even a telephone, even a double boiler. This cannot be avoided.

[AdAstra]

Well, yes, they didn’t trust anything harder than the Ak-74. And "childhood diseases", including during service in the ranks, are being eliminated.

[fa2998]

This is not the first news about changes in the new aircraft. If the aircraft is mass-produced, all aircraft must be the same. for the time being, we will re-equip aviation (in 5 years), it will already become morally obsolete. So with the old engine. Again with the new test.
Many "paraffinize" the American F-35, it may be worse, but for example there will be 2500 of them, and ours will be "born" 100.

[Paladin]

Absolutely identical "all" does not exist. Modernizations are constantly going on, so it was, and so it will continue. Sometimes small, sometimes serious, but this was the case in the USSR and now. Another thing is that right now we would like to have three regiments with the Su-57, but it makes sense to rivet it in dozens with the old engine. Let's see what will happen when the engine of the second stage is brought to mind and series.

Who told you such heresy? Aircraft are constantly being upgraded.
The serial number of the aircraft is sewn up in the serial number. Different series - the equipment is different.
For example. Su-27 aircraft. First flight - 1981.
I'll take my regiment. Su-27 received in 1986. Boards 15, 16 of the series arrived. In 1992, the boards of the 36th series came.
The green lieutenant climbs onto the ladder, but he cannot open the lantern, there is no handle. And what did you want, the plane is old - the 15th series, the handle is in a different place. It's so ... it was a cool moment.

It never happened. Each aircraft has its own, though small, but differences and features. This is even recorded in the aircraft logbook and the pilot must familiarize himself with them before the flight.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart. The form (S) on the Mi-24 is seven healthy bags of paper junk. For each board. What did the pilot forget in them, if not all IAS specialists make notes in them? And each in his own "patrimony", without looking to the "allied"?
And new equipment and new scoreboards - toggle switches in the cockpit are taught to the extent they need. They sit at desks, explain, take credit. Usually this is the concern of the engineer of the regiment in the specialty.

You can rock as much as you like ), but the aircraft form is ONE, where its features are recorded. The rest of the forms refer to its equipment and engines. Before the flight, the pilot puts his signature in the aircraft preparation log in the column where, in particular, it says: "Familiar with the features of the aircraft."

[Thrifty]

But is it impossible to expand the purchase order for the Su57? Make at least 200 of them.

[fa2998]

I think they will master such a party by about 2050

[Cottodraton]

If necessary, they will master it and much faster. I, as a person in the subject, know what I'm talking about

[El Chuvachino]

When necessary, a second contract will be signed.

Do not worry. They are not in a hurry - by the year 25 there will be (if they manage) only 22.

[voyaka uh]

Now there are 4 of them.
They do about 4 a year.
4+12=16 or 20 if by the end of 2025

[Vyacheslav Ermolaev]

There are five of them. One was delivered alone in 2020 due to the fact that the second one crashed during factory tests.

This is a joke, but serious changes affecting the combat properties are usually brought to all previously produced units. Especially not a thousandth batch.

[kit88]

This is called "refinement by ballot".

[RVAPatriot]

The case was not finalized for communication with the hunter ????

[AlOrg]

In the light of ongoing events, I think the Su-57 series will be accelerated and increased. This is a reasonable decision. Do not forget that deliveries of the S-2023 will begin from 70, and from 2027 (and possibly earlier) of the Su-75

[fa2998]

You have reviewed the news! Quench your optimism a little. We have been "accelerating and increasing" for 20 years now.

[Sedoy]

Su-57 will receive ... work is being carried out ... The complex is entering the testing phase.
currently being manufactured...to be tested

we have all the news, no matter what topic, in imperfective verbs .. or in the future tense ...
in the past, only "the money was cut, the project was closed" ... or "Modest results were demonstrated in the areas for which Rostec is responsible" or "the Russian financial system was not ready" ...
and again: "The work on the development of end-to-end technologies should, of course, be restarted" ... as well as import substitution, training of engineering and IT specialists, etc.

[Ruslan Saidov]

Taking into account the decommissioning of the Su 27 and Mig 29, and this time will come soon, we have much fewer new aircraft to replace them, we need more Su 35 series and more Su 57

[Velmi Shin]

Why is there no news about the takeoff of the prototype with new products-30? The previously announced deadlines have already passed. Or is the dissatisfaction of GDP with Rostec and is there an answer to this question - is the flight being transferred? Something is very tight in the Russian Federation, everything is being produced - such huge money seems to be allocated, but the result is delayed. This is what decades of doing nothing mean - all competencies are either forgotten, or lost, or stolen. Plus, the lack of qualified personnel, even if you command and overwhelm everyone with money, they can’t do anything. Only the inscriptions are rewritten and the labels are re-pasted. Laughter and only in Iran will buy UAVs. Maybe that's why they agree on space with Zambia? The level is the same.

[Amateur]

Best the enemy of the good

Making "significant improvements" at the start of mass production is the best way to get rid of the responsibility for failing to meet the deadlines for starting production.
