Russian Su-57 Aircraft Thread (PAK-FA and IAF FGFA)

[b787]

I think this is an example where information on the PAK FA can be somewhat confusing at best and rather misleading at worst.

Fifth-generation engines
The Ufa Engine Industrial Association (UMPO) has begun to produce engines for the T-50 Fighter Jet​

The information released by ROSTEC reflects their plans and at least what technologies are supposedly ready, of course their plans might not be fulfilled or come to fruition, but if you read ROSTEC you can have more less and idea where it is heading, for example they are saying the first-stage AL-41F1 engines are in production, thus at least it seems the engines are ready, but only time will tell

Soon to follow are the next two flying aircraft T-50-6-1 (final config. I for India) and T-50-6-2 (first config. II) for Russia.

What is the story on the T-50-6-2 that you know of? Has it been sighted or is it just rumors?

 

[Deino]

So far nothing official ... all the info I have in regard to 6-1 and 6-2 are from the reliable posters at the Key-Forum and even more Secret-Projects forum.

But I'm sure flateric can help us out.

another look at 055

 

[Deino]

Interesting ... exactly the same image but the dirt is much more pronounced !

Here's the one I had for comparison. Anyway a sad sight to see it this way ...

 

[Broccoli]

They claimed back then that it was minor fire and it could be easily fixed. What is 055 status right now?

 

[Deino]

A few pages ago we had some nasty discussion on this question and while a few still tend to believe the original first statements by Sukhoi that it will be rebuild I'm convinced that it is a write off and all my reliable friends in Russia agree with that.
