Because this 6th generation fighter was recently leaked in their Airshow, it got more attention than the F35 Copy known as J35

Yes, I am aware the model is present at the airshow and it's baited some people into thinking it is legitimate or important.

... but this is the land systems thread. Did you mean to post it in the primary air show/air systems thread?

... I'll move your posts over, but I don't think throwing back to an old CGI is useful because everyone else here already knows the model isn't representative of anything and if it's meant to indirectly laugh at people who thought it was real, that just seems redundant.

Don't get me wrong, if now WantChinaTimes, ArmyRecognition, militarywatchmagazine.com or that Indian nonsense-site idrw posts this too then we can be sure it is a confirmed contract! ;)

A sale might happen. The Russian Air Force does not want more Su-57 with the original configuration and they need to keep the line open until the Su-57M enters production. As is, they keep producing aircraft and delivering them to the Russian Air Force past the original order.

It is unlikely the customer would be China. Algeria requires the aircraft to be tested there before buying anything and we have not heard of any Su-57 flights there. I would say the most likely client would be either Iran or India.
