I think the two things Sukhoi has traded for are S Duct, and the flat nozzle for the engine, in exchange for a larger armory and maneuverability for the aircraft. I think they can easily do it, because they already have prototypes!
critics: only S-duct is true stealth no other way around it.
Russia: We had serpentine engines before in the soviet times and maneuverability did not help that much lets make partial S-ducts, Radar blockers, S-shaped inlet vanes with RAM applied to inlets, anti-radar grading installed inside the air channel, fan blades made out of composite material to reduce the RCS levels to the way we want them to.
Critics: NO NO that is not as stealthy as just S-ducts(just go with my opinion approach).
Critics: Flat nozzles like the F-22 is true stealth no other way around it.
Russia: We had flat nozzles before in the soviet times with the Su-27 but found out the thrust was reduced by 15% how about we a aerosol substance that is injected into the exhaust which reduces are Infrared signature by 3 - 3.5 times without the need for flat nozzles and use saw tooth design for the engine with englnes getting to reduce the RCS as well.
Critics: NO NO that is not as stealthy as the flat nozzles approach.
Critics: You have to have 6 face polygon shape for IRST, DIRCM
Results: thndr dircm mentioned back in 2013 with claims of 6 faced polygon shape like EOTs. 2015 northrup pdf shows 100kw DIRCM claim of F-35 but as bulb shape design image similiar to the Su-57 they criticize so much about using, which TAI-TFX will use as well. Still dont have a DIRCM when it was planned for the JSF back as in early 2006.
This isn't even a stealth discussion anymore, its just aircraft racism at this point
. Overall pic related is me when I see any non-Russian forum regarding a Su-57 thread discussion.
On the sidelines, where can I complain about an account?
Like this one, if you have issues with regular users escalate it to moderators, if you have problems with moderators escalate it to an admin. However there are certain admins like the ones I have encountered if you interested in hearing about that have a strong western approach of fuck the east. and if for example there is a very pro Indian admin here in which you look down on india or have more support for china/pakistan, whatever the reason. Got to know how admins and moderators operate 1st before making any posts that would be against your complaints of an account. Some forums are like clubrooms you can message me if you like about it.
