According to Sergey Chemezov, CEO of the state-owned Rostec corporation, the first export Su-57E will be delivered to a foreign customer soon. Chemezov did not name the country.

Soon ? They have time to fulfill orders for another nation when they are dragging to produce theirs... I would not bid on that. It feel like bragging to me.

India have a change of heart 5 time in a year for a project... it need to be someone else if they are sure of it.

Sukhoi has delivered 150x Su-35S to the RuAF already according to bmpd.

As for the Su-57 they are on track to deliver the original order. And they have enough production to start exporting by now. Likely customer is Algeria.

Supposedly the first Su-57 regiment entered service in the RuAF according to FighterBomber. Probably 24 aircraft.

There is more info in below link. that Su-35 radar can detect stealthy cruise missile at range greater than 100km. and it was already mentioned by Rostec that Su-35 works like AWACS. Su-57 is now in regiment. i presume the export version is less advanced and easy to build.

And it is precisely the advanced Irbis radar of the Su-35S cover aircraft that is capable of not only highlighting the enemy's combat aircraft and transmitting the corresponding coordinates to ground services or other combat aircraft, but also detecting stealth cruise missiles on pursuit or head-on courses, detecting them at distances of over 100 kilometers. Thus, ensuring relatively safe flight conditions and the execution of complex combat missions by Su-34 bombers.

Rosoboronexport reported on the ability of the Su-35 to perform the functions of a "flying radar"​

The fighter is capable of effectively combating ground (surface) targets and managing group actions of aircraft in the air, the department noted.
MOSCOW, July 4. /TASS/. The Russian multirole super-maneuverable fighter Su-35 of the "4++" generation is capable of coordinating the actions of other aircraft in the air, performing the functions of an airborne early warning and control aircraft ("flying radar"). This was reported to TASS by the press service of Rosoboronexport (part of the Rostec state corporation).
The Su-35 effectively fights ground (surface) targets, including without entering the enemy's air defense zone. In addition, the Su-35 is capable of controlling group actions of aircraft in the air, performing the functions of an airborne early warning and control aircraft," the company said.
