Right from what I see, I cannot really see the big huffle about the Su-35, it has superior radar, cockpit, weapon systems etc.. more so than the latest versions MKI, SMK etc.
But It is still a flanker, same basic frame and the dissadvantges associated with it, but with a few improvements.
In performance wise, It will not match the Eurofighter in turn rate, T/W ratio, Climb rate, agility, supercruise—only max range from what I see.
Talking about RS, not my fortay, the Eurofighter is claimed to have 3rd best (F-22/35 aside) and how the hell sukhoi will make the, areodynamicly optimised,huge, traditonal shape into something with a low RS will be something. No matter how much extra RS coating ect.. you put on it, it still will be a very big, flanker. Also the Eurofighter as sub-set missile storage under the fuselage, where as the su-35 literally lets it all hang out.
Another unknown to me (initate discussion) is the radar in he su-35,
is it AESA? Can it really track targets up to 400km away as mention regurlay (airforces monthly, aircraft etc…)
I may be better than the Typhoon radar at present :confused: , but hopefully and Im pretty confident when the Eurofighter gets it AESA radar it will be F-22 standard.
Prove me wrong 😀
Gee… Its what BAE and EADS wants you to think and you are falling for it. Right now Typhoon is matched by Su-30 MKI (as air dominance fighter only, Air to Ground MKI is Waaaaay better). Wait for Su-35.
