Gr8 video but you don't have any of those except prototypes. When we get S-400 we will shoot them out of the sky over your own borders.

We have a squadron of them. 48 more are on order and will have three regiments by 2015. It will be more than a match for your poor TuAF but already have MiG-31 for that.

Thanks! Such beautiful birds the SU-35BM are!

And to the Turk, just an FYI, because it isn't AESA and all that other jaz, does not mean it is worst. Actually, PESA has currently a further reach and greater output (forced output) that would have a better chance of detecting stealth. Difference is that PESA has a higher radar signiture making it a target, but with the proper electronic warfare in the radar, would make it very effective.

Also, Russia has AESA radar in service. Difference is, each plane has different rolls.

BTW, the Mi-28 is so promising. Cannot wait for them to replace those Mi-24's (even if the Hind is a beauty and a legend).

Uhh, how would you get the S-400? It is a Russian design (which you would obviously hate).

Don't bother with this Turk boy. He thinks Trukey is a Super Power.

Hello everybody, my first post, this thread needs to get back on track!

First of all great documentary on Su-27, 4th part especially has some great footage.

Su-34 update


It represents a succesfull develoopment of KAB-500S and its integration with Su-34 by GosNIIAS institute. The institute studies netcentric capability required for KAB-500S to work effectively(you need to discover enemy positions and transmit its coordinates to strike platforms to use sat guided bombs), as you can see they are seeking to develop a JSTARS like plane with broader ELINT,SIGINT and command post capabilities - pretty interesting.

Enjoy it !

Andy,

none of the links for the Su-27 doco don't work


Some footage from the Centre 2011 exercise

Nicely done
.

Test... Fail.

Ignore.

Interesting first video about the PAK DA... except the three main aircraft depicted show the T-4MS (the broad flat lifting body aircraft with twin vertical tail fins and the outer swing wings) and the narrow swing wing aircraft and an aircraft that looks like an Su-34 nose attached to a smaller T-4MS body.

The T-4MS is an old design and along with the narrower drawing with swing wings were both prototypes that failed. The design that won that competition is known now as the Tu-160 Blackjack.

I don't think they would look backwards unless there was a critical design problem that prevented them from making them that has now been solved and it is worth bringing the designs back.

Of course any design will have to be completely revamped because the original T-4MS had no stealth considerations in its basic design.

BTW the simulated video showing the ball of light at the nose of the aircraft might be a joke or an attempt to show plasma stealth, but it is totally wrong. Plasma can be generated by heating certain materials or by running a very high electric current through the air... the former would create a bright light and huge IR signature, while the latter would not do either.

The vid about the Tu-22M3M was interesting, though the claim that only the Tu-22M3M can drop bombs is erroneous because part of the upgrades they are receiving adds the same new guided weapons to the Tu-160M and Tu-95MSM.

Replacement of all three aircraft would be problematic because there are limitations on strategic bombers in terms of numbers and where they can be based. There are no such limitations on the Tu-22M3 but by replacing it with the PAK DA the limitations would apply.

It would be like making a new model TOPOL that can have two stages removed and replaced with payload and using it to replace the Iskander. Sure it could do the job but Topol is limited in numbers by new Start and Iskander is not. It might be more efficient to have one type of missile instead of two but the limitations make it less sensible...
