According to Serghei Bogdan, the Sukhoi test pilot, it barely go >1M and there is no mention of any load. So, sorry, until now there is no real supercruising Su 35…

According to him huh? Really? Where?

and even that was intentionaly ,they could have been conserved very well ,but now migs have been redused and soon erased from ruaf inventory,and the chief of mig has become trough a fantom united corporation ,who else but the suhoi leader-
mr. pogostick. terible ,terible and unthinkable things ,now sukhoi makes fighters ,bombers ,civilian jets,and else things…i predict diverse rusian aircraft industryes to disapear very soon.:(

The original “MiG” and “Sukhoi” are long gone.

The UAC isn’t a bad idea, sort of like many of the US companies have merged.

Tupolev and Sukhoi as part of the UAC can handle any kind of aircraft, not to mention MiG’s employees can work for Sukhoi.

Then you have Ilyushin Bureau, what’s left of Antonov (might as well move to Russia, IMO, Ukraine isn’t really much of a place for a development bureau).

The RuAF must disagree otherwise why would they claim those numbers and try thier best to achieve those numbers of Mig-29s operational, they need them and they know they still have a mission.

Well the Russians didn’t choose to go through with a domestic SMT upgrade, so it’s no surprise that there’s a chance that many of the jets aren’t in full operational capability.

Approx 7 year for the USSR to introduce from first flight.

Now with no funding issues for the PAK-FA, and greater technology access , I wouldn’t see why approx. 4 years for deployment could be seen as “impossible” or even “unlikely” – I’d say, serial production after 4-5 years to be quite likely.

The big loser in that case would be Russia. Titanium is a raw material which can be sourced from elsewhere, the U.S components in Gripen are fruits of U.S R&D investment, there is a considerable difference.

Titanium is that quantity isn’t that easy to come by.

Soviets weren’t the only nation to build Titanium submarines for a reason.

I’ve heard practically nothing that references the MiG-35 without mentioning its 3D TVC. In fact half the people I’ve come across call it an evolved MiG-29OVT in the first place.

Are you certain? I’ve seemed to come across sources that suggest the RD-33MK “Morskaya Osa” – which AFAIK isn’t TVC of any kind.

I assumed:
1- (Su-27BM = Su-35BM = T10BM)
2- Su-27SM = Old airframes upgraded with radar and fly-by-wire system taken from the Su-35BM. Next modernization program of the current Flanker fleet.

Am I wrong?

The Su-27SM doesn’t use anything from the Su-35BM AFAIK.

The radar is going to be a PESA upgrade .. PERO? With basically full Russian A2G arsenal capability.

New engines yes (more thrust Al-31 .. Al-31FM I think)

Digital FBW also.
