Russian Aerospace Forces Receive Another Batch of New Su-57 and Su-35S Fighters

Another batch of new Su-57 and Su-35S fighters has been handed over to the Russian military; the aircraft were manufactured at Komsomolsk-on-Amur aviation plant as part of the state defense order. This was reported by the press service of the United Aircraft Corporation.

The Russian Aerospace Forces received a batch of Su-35S 4++ generation fighters and Su-57 fifth generation fighters. All aircraft have undergone the necessary ground and flight tests, were accepted by the technical staff and have already departed for their bases. It is highly likely that some of them will soon take part in a special military operation. The transfer of the fighters took place at the airfield of the Komsomolsk-on-Amur aircraft plant; the number of aircraft in the batch is not disclosed. The previous batch was sent to the troops in the first half of September. As previously reported by Rostec, the aircraft plant is expanding production.



The production capacities for the aircraft are expanding. The Su-57, together with the Su-34, Su-35S and other aircraft, are the wings of our victory that the Rostec aircraft manufacturing enterprises provide to the army on time and with high quality.

- said the head of Rostec Sergey Chemezov.


The Su-57 is a Russian fifth-generation multirole fighter jet developed using stealth technology in the Sukhoi Design Bureau. The fighter is designed to destroy air, ground and sea targets using systems Defense, long-range reconnaissance, and also for the destruction of the enemy's air control system. It can fight alone and within the framework of the "unified field" concept.

Su-35 is a Russian multi-role supermaneuverable 4++ generation fighter with thrust vector control (UVT) engines. Generation 4++ is conditional and only indicates that in terms of the totality of characteristics, the fighter is very close to the characteristics of the fifth generation fighter, with the exception of low visibility technology.

      There is no direct information, but here is the main thing:
      All serial Su-57 fighters that will be transferred to the Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) in 2024 will receive second-stage engines. TASS reported this, citing two sources in the VKS.
      “The second stage engine has passed tests and is ready for operation,” said one of the sources.
      It is noted that all serial fifth-generation Su-57 aircraft transferred to the Aerospace Forces in 2024 will receive a fifth-generation engine.

        Details were already announced in the media in September 2024.

        . Su-57M and heavy UAV S-70 "Okhotnik" with AL-51F1 engine will go into production in early 2025
        The year 2024 became an important milestone in Russian military aviation. The first long-awaited event was the launch of serial production of the AL-51F1 engine. And already in early 2025, the heavy UAV S-70 Okhotnik and the modernized Su-57M will go into production.

          At the moment, AL-51F-1 are being installed on Su-57s under construction (those on the stocks), and will be delivered to the customer starting next year. The footage shown is of a Su-57 with an AL-41F-1S.
          I can't imagine why they would put the AL-51F-1 on the Okhotnik, it's subsonic and the AL-41 without an afterburner is quite sufficient for it. Or is it for the sake of unification? It would be better to increase the production rate of the Su-57 by using additional engines.
          Or did the journalist get it wrong again?
          Most likely so.
          But for the promising Su-75, which according to some reports and photographs has already taken off, the AL-51F-1 will be just "a bull's eye". So many of these engines will be needed.

            The AL-51F-1 will be installed on the Su-57M and it would be highly desirable if it were installed on the Su-75 as well, so that the latter would have enough thrust. It is not necessary to install the AL-51F-1 on the S-70 Okhotnik. There are rumors that the Su-57M flies at a speed of 1,5 Mach in non-afterburning mode.

              This has long been indicated in the tables. Moreover, for AL-41F-1S engines.
              By the way, the MiG-1500 and MiG-31 also developed a speed of 29 km/h at maximum thrust without afterburners.

                  And yet, this is supersonic without afterburners.
                  By the way, the non-afterburning thrust of the MiG-31 engines is 9 kgf, exactly the same as the AL-500F-41S of the Su-1, but it is lighter. That is why the Su-57 has a higher speed at maximum without afterburning. But how much will the Su-57M produce in this mode on the AL-57F-51 with its 1 kgf without afterburner ... I think that it can do it even at Mach 11. In any case, the Su-000M produced at an altitude of about 2 km / h, and the afterburning thrust of its AL-24F is 2300 kgf.

                    The MiG-29 and MiG-31 cannot fly at supersonic speeds without afterburners; they are limited to Mach 0,95-0,99.

                      I know its table data. As I know that the air intakes of its engines are optimized for low altitudes and high-altitude speed breakthrough was not envisaged for it. But I remember a film that was shown on TV in the mid-90s dedicated to the anniversary of this aircraft, where this maximum speed at altitude was indicated. Perhaps it was achieved with normally adjustable air intakes, because the engine power and the aerodynamics of the airframe allow this. But it went into production with air intakes adapted for low altitudes.

                        I think you wrote to me earlier that they will install/are installing some kind of "intermediate" engine with a thrust of 16,5 - 17 t.s. The publications indicate the thrust of the AL-51F-1 engine in afterburner at 17,5 t.s. And where is the truth?
                        It is obvious that they decided to reduce the thrust (temperature on the blades) in order to obtain an acceptable resource.
                        Or are they still continuing to lie, despite the Ministry of Defense getting rid of Shoygi and the Ministry of Industry and Trade getting rid of Manturov? Have they decided to make a leak at the beginning of the exhibition in China?

                        And tell me, how can a fighter jet that accelerates to 20 km/h at 000 m (and even more with the new canopy glazing) with a thrust of 3000 t.s. not accelerate to supersonic speed (15,5 M) with a thrust of 1,25 t.s.?
                        And the other one (Su-57) with the same thrust accelerates to 1,5 M?
                        Maybe they can accelerate, but they have limitations? Because the sound barrier is passed slowly with such thrust and the glider takes on increased loads for too long? The limitations here are quite understandable, but the capabilities remain the same. And it is clear that no one in the troops indulged in such modes.
                        Rationality is one thing, but practical possibilities are quite another. The restrictions for combat MiG-29 and MiG-31 are quite rational.

                        I was always surprised by the speed limitations of the Su-24M with such engine thrust. Adaptation of air intakes for low-altitude supersonic flight is understandable, but the Su-17 with the same engine had a much higher speed... even than the MiG-21. The expediency is clear. But there are also practical possibilities that were precisely verified and achieved during testing. That's what testing is for.

                        The point is in the altitude-speed characteristics of the engine, the difference between the thrust without and with afterburner increases. The same RD-33 on the ground gives 5000 kgf at maximum, 8000 kgf at full afterburner, that is 60% more, and at Mach number = 2,0 and an altitude of 13000 meters 2000 kgf and 5700 kgf, by 285%.

                        I know about this, but we are talking specifically about test flights, when the aircraft's capabilities are fully tested. You are demonstrating manuals for production aircraft with all the restrictions in place.
                        I am a former air defense officer - an officer in the combat control of an air defense unit, so for me these parameters are known from a slightly different angle. Although our units had their own fighter regiments. So I talked about these topics with pilots, and with aircraft technicians, navigators, and the unit's chief of aviation. True, we had a regiment of MiG-25s back then, based in Nasosnaya. And a helicopter squadron to intercept low-altitude intruders like Rust.
                        By the way, the speed limits for the MiG-25 and MiG-31 were precisely because of the so-called "thermal barrier", and mainly due to the durability of the canopy glazing. This is from the MiG-31 technical description, the aviation chief let me look through it - they were going to rearm the regiment of our unit. After replacing the canopy glazing with new materials, the speed limits were moved to 3200 km / h. It is unlikely that anyone will accelerate them like that in practice, because it has a cruising supersonic speed (with afterburner, but not full) of 2500 km / h. And it can maintain this speed for 22 minutes. The MiG-25 had the same.

                        They write that with non-adjustable air intakes the limitation is M=1,35.

                        And they write, and in the tables everywhere the speed of 1500 km/h at low altitude is indicated. At low altitude it can't accelerate any faster, but nothing is indicated about the speed at the flight level of 10 m. Well, and the non-adjustable air intakes were adapted for exactly this speed and for low altitudes... But I was talking about the speed achieved during tests with normal (adjustable) air intakes.
                        Otherwise, in comparison with the F-111, it turns out to be a complete nonsense. With an engine thrust of less than 10 t.s., its speed was always indicated in all reference books as ... 2650 km / h, which is, of course, complete nonsense. But they insisted on this nonsense until the last of them (Australian) were written off. And only after that, the maximum speed at altitude was recognized as "2000 km / h". But the Su-24 (which is a little lighter) has an engine thrust of 11 kg.s. So the speed during tests at an altitude of up to 200 km / h is quite realistic. And then adaptation to a low-altitude breakthrough with all the limitations and settings of non-adjustable air intakes.

Alexander Fedotov on the modernized MiG-25 gave M=3,1, but he was a highly qualified pilot, perhaps the best in the world.

                        And they write, and in the tables everywhere the speed is indicated as 1500 km/h at low altitude. At low altitude it can't accelerate any faster, but nothing is indicated about the speed at the flight level of 10 m.
                        Mach number or instrument speed, which limitation comes first. According to the instrument, the limits are:



                        In general, the Su-24's altitude and speed characteristics are rather weak.

                        You can find a flight manual for the F-111, but I'm too lazy right now.

                        I looked. Well, at least they improved the economy, and that's good.
                        And "Product-30" doesn't seem to come out like a flower from Danila-Master. Have they set the bar high with the specific thrust?
                        Maybe it's really possible to cut the sturgeon down to 16,5 - 17 t.s.? It will be quite enough for the Su-57 and Su-75.

                        The AL-31F was developed in 1972, it passed state tests only in 1985, only then was series 1 with a resource of 100 hours launched into production. A couple of years is not such a long time, in any case, the situation here is much better than with the same PD-8.

                        So with them it will probably be all twenty. And it will be good if everything works out. After all, it was promised back when.

                        What's wrong with this?? It seems like they should already be certifying it?

                        Well, I never! How is that possible? After all, a couple of years ago in correspondence with me you claimed that "a little more and the resource will be 500 hours". And I expressed doubts that the bar for specific thrust was raised unreasonably high. And that it would be worth cutting the sturgeon for a longer resource and reliability. Maybe it is still worth it?
                        And if you say that "there will be no engine before 2027", then what will happen in 2027 and after that? If "the engine didn't work out"?
                        What's so bad about PD-8? It didn't work either?

    Good news! They seem to have launched two new workshops (lines) for the assembly of SU-57 and the Ufa plant is increasing the supply of stage 2 engines.

        A representative of consumer society with a Ukrainian tint and flavor came in.
        No idea whatsoever about fighter aircraft.

          Back then, it wasn't just the pros who were in the comments, but also in the publications.
          But the pros turned out to be not very convenient. First they were dispersed from the authors, then from the commentators.

            There used to be an army, not just toy troops for parades. It's been four months, but they still can't drive the enemy out of the Kursk region.

      It's better not to copy, but to buy spare parts in China and organize large-unit assembly on the territory of the former AZLK plant. It will be faster that way. And screw the nameplate on with bolts ))
