Su-35 vs F-22/F-35

GarryB wrote:Not so much immune but resistant to Active radar homing from such a small radar antenna.

If the Su-35 can have jammer pods that jam AMRAAM then the F-22 should be able to manage the same or equivalent.

Besides the long range AAMs of the Su-35 will be used to take out all the inflight refuelling tanker aircraft the USAF will rely on to keep their stealth fighters operational in the field and also their AWACS and JSTARS collecting live intel in the field.

With these force multipliers eliminated NATO will not be in such a good position as it is used to.

Once they have perfected the IIR seeker on the new short range AAM then a small IIR sensor for long range missiles would be useful.... lock on after launch with a passive sensor means it can look for targets without giving its own position away to easily.... an IR target can then be scanned with the onboard high frequency radar and when a weak or non existent radar return is the result it can assume the target is stealth and worth attacking.... its IR signature can be analysed to ID it.... much the same way Brimstone works with MMW radar signals.

Resistant? F-22 curently has no equivalent of SAP-518 station. Usually there won't be more than 5 Sentries really, so if every Su-35 will carry like 2-3 R-37Ms in the squadrom, it should be enough to shoot down all AWACS, tankers and at least 1/4 of F-22s.

Apparently F -22 can detect and defeat the Su 35 at BVR

It's not a new info that it can detect a su-35 which still has a big rcs even with a frontal reduction.

Defeat is totally impossible to prove. Modern russian jammers are known to be very capable against AIM-120 and long range missiles are famous for being not that good in general.

In close fight, a Syrian Su-17 proved to be capable of defeating US last version of IR missiles with flares probably delivered at the soviet times... let alone Su-35 reduced infrared signature with modern flares.

BTW, this article is an exemple of total pro-us bullshit with 0 proof, 0 argument, 0 exemples ...

My ass, RUSI is a think tank, which works for the UK government. They will never admit, that westie-made stuff will ever lose. It is almost like asking Russian MoD "Are Russian fighter jets the best in the world?" The answer is more than predictible.

Wasn't it you telling me, that Su-35 would beat EF with RVV-BD rather easily?

As the R-77 approaches the F-22 it could use its large AESA array to focus a lot of energy at the rather small seeker of the Russian missile, which might render it less than optimally effective.

Since the end of 2016, Su-35S is using R-77-1, not R-77, whereas yankees will deploy AIM-120D only in 2019. R-77-1 has a Ku-band seeker and F-22's radar is X-band, really and also I don't think that F-22's radar has the same output as SAP-518 does. Plus, R-77-1 has both passive and active seeker. Do not forget about R-37M as well.

... a high flying Typhoon is going to be killed at 400km range by an S-400.... wrote:

Currently S400 does not have 400km range missiles, though S300V4 does.

Weren't LBand AESA radars only useful for IFF, terrain mapping, and disruption satellite communication?

Don't take any care about a lost moronic 30-40 years old teenager's fantaisies. At this step no one in the world could assert a such thing. The war is not a simulation, a war is combat between men. Intelligence prevailed. Nearly all the simulations implemented failed. Since Alfred Von Shielifen until the last pentagon's planners during their occupation of Iraq. Nothing run, if none simulations made seriously by highly specialized pundits failed, what did U expect of a teeny ? A teeny that just want to sky rocket its youtube channel visitors number.

However there are several serious clues -scientific data obviously- indicating that the SU-35 would be at least equal, depending the skills of the pilot of course.

BVR! BVR! BVR! pffffffffffff.....
Contrary to what is swaggered, U can count BVR' success -since the 60's until now- with your fingers, if they really existed one day-existence far to be guaranteed, especially if U add conditions of a so called success - ....As those loudly claim their so-called success are Pentagon, Israel, in fact those who are promoting and producing and marketing them. If U love marketing U can believe them.

During the aerial war of the Vietnam, the gap between US air Force, and VPAF was really significant. The F-4 Phantom II, the F-105 , F-8 Crusader were supersonic, equipped with modern radar, and air-air missiles. US pilots were considered at that time among the best in the world, due to their training. Face of USAF, VPAF could barely deploy an handful of Mig-17 not supersonic, equipped with pitiable radar, and no air-air missiles availlable. The other great problem, for VPAF -and far to be the smallest- was its small number of pilots at the beginning of the conflict in 1965. At this time no one could give a little chance to VPAF. When RollingThunder started in early spring 1965, Pentagon planners with their hollywood simulations  expected North Vietnam will be at knees in few weeks -5 weeks if I recall-. Ho Chi Minh will beg for peace.
U know the next. US lost at least 4.000 aircraft, the Mig-17 downed at least 70 US aircraft including the most modern F-105, F-4 Phantom II, and F-8 Crusader. A gun was added to the F-4 Phantom II resulting tragic failure of US philosophy of combat. Finally US retreated of the Vietnam. And US beg this time for retreat, in their famous "Peace with honor".

Tell me about the gap between SU-35 and F-22 without Western medias usual soap ? The stealth technology does not work against modern army and country -like Russia, China, India-, the BVR even less, just maneuverability and dogfight. In this area pilots on SU-35 do have a small advantage than their US collegues, they could train more than US pilots in their F-22.


Finally Internet is full of idiocies including those incomming from western medias as they origin all from Lockheed. Then don't take credit to all.

Don't know exactly where to put this, but I found it interesting with references to many issues discussed here. Don't know the guy or what credibility he has:

https://sputniknews.com/analysis/201808151067215661-f35-su35-expert-opinion/

Pearls from the interview:

“We should keep in mind that the Su-35S can see the F-35 all right and it has excellent flying characteristics too.”

“Why don’t the Americans want to hand these planes over to Turkey? I think one reason is that the F-35s’ arrival would create a unique situation where US planes and Russian missile defense systems find themselves as part of a single armed force. Then it could transpire that the stealth fighter is not as stealthy as is touted. The word could leak out for everyone to realize that the F-35 is really not such a big deal after all. This could lead to a financial scandal.”

Think I've heard this before...

Of course it can. Just depends on the range. I don't believe a second of the RCS of the F-22 or F-35. And if Russia has decided to update Irbis-E since its iteration using newer digital signal processors and what not, they could drastically increase performance of the radar system. Let us not forget Russia managed to increase Su-30SM's BARS-R radar to upwards of about 350km detection/track range, which is really good for a radar with only 7kw of power compared to Irbis-E's much more 20KW of power.

Then there are passive sensors too. Plus ground based radar assets can communicate and transmit data to aircraft.

Su-35S vs. F-22 Raptor: Russians avoid sharp turns

With Russian combat aircraft, the comparison of American aircraft is a mixed success. Then suddenly some Western experts find out that "Russians rule in the air", then other "experts" start to deny it. Where to find the truth, you ask? The desired result can be achieved if you remove the political background, when the desired is given as valid. As an object for cleaning up the "information garbage" I will choose an American aircraft F-22 Raptor and Russian Su-35S.

So, let's begin.

Very good!

F-22 on thermal camera. Look how we see nothing. Such low IR signature. My god we need a telescope to see it. It hides not only behind clouds but also behind molecules of H2O.

Yep, saw that video before. People wonder why the Su-57 doesn't have 2-D nozzles.......oh just the fact that the thermal reduction isn't as good as advertised, and it reduces thrust by 15%, and it makes it less manuverable.

If they were to develop a special heavy strike version like the Su-34 for the Su-57 it could make sense to think about stealthier nozzles, but for a fighter the 3D TVC stealth ones we have seen look pretty much optimal to me...

Strike version is the drone that comes with su-57. Even if for that a two seater su-57 would be better to control all the drines flying with thr su-57.

True. It was only an hypothesis, in reality I don't see likely that any such modification will be done to Su-57 at all.

Technical article in Aviapanorama comparing all the 35's: MiG-35 / Su-35 / F-35. Including numerical analysis of the success probabilities in dogfighting with and without the use of modern IR missiles. Also some considerations about BVR too. Very recommendable given these comparisons in the internet are usually school yard level.

And he says good things about the F-35, but the numbers don't lie.
Thanks for share

Thank you LMFS for the link.  Good read.
