      The Russian fifth-generation fighter Su-57 has begun testing with a second-stage engine.


      So, it seems that flight tests of the Product 2017 have been going on since 30. Or did you have to make changes to the design of the engine? And now there are new flight tests? Or is it most likely the Su-57M, created according to the Megapolis design and development work, which took off on two Product 30 engines?

      On November 11, 2016, the first ground launch of the Izdeliye 30 demonstrator engine took place. The power plant is intended to equip the Russian fifth-generation fighter Su-57.


      On December 5, 2017, the aircraft with the new power plant made its debut flight, which lasted 17 minutes.

      As stated in the state corporation, today the aircraft has already begun flight tests with the new engine, planned delivery of an updated fighter to the troops under the existing contract.


      According to statements made in 2019 - 2020, new power plant The Su-57 will be delivered between 2023 and 2025.


      Then, logically, it turns out that production Su-57s with second-stage Izdeliye 30 engines are being tested before being transferred to the VKS. The news is good. This means that Izdeliye 30 has been completed.

    Everything is natural... for various reasons, the development of engine construction capacities slowed down / stopped, and the design work was not great! Everything needs to be restored, built up and moved forward at a rapid pace, but only as needed, according to the mind.
    Let's hope that this will be the case...

    Why reprint Rostec's message? When there were already reports at the end of June, beginning of July about the start of flight tests of the new “product 30” engine with a flat nozzle. Yes, on this information platform.

    Best the enemy of the good
    (Folk wisdom)

    The main thing is that this does not cause another delay in the arrival of the aircraft to the troops.

    “Siply” has everything in order. A clerk with strange servile habits. It’s not clear why he’s been stuck for so many years.

      Usually, the loudest “Prostitute!!!” is shouted by the former representatives of the ancient profession themselves. It seems that here there are the same projections of one’s “inner self” - the husky man, the clerk, and the lackey habits... Everything is mixed together. Into such a stinking Liberoid heap laughing

      And the passage about the trough directly points to non-brothers. Throw some acorns, neighbor? Will you crunch? laughing

      You are right, on the other hand, the website of the Russian newspaper refers to the Rostec cart, and this news is there, whether you can trust the Rostec cart is an open question.

    What capabilities does the “second stage” engine reveal for the Su-57? And in theory, can it be attached to the “mobilization” Su-35?
