The Sukhoi Su-57 (Russian: Сухой Су-57) is the designation for a
stealth, single-seat, twin-engine multirole fifth-generation jet fighter
being developed for air superiority and attack operations. The aircraft
is the product of the PAK FA (Russian: ПАК ФА, Russian: Перспективный
авиационный комплекс фронтовой авиации, Perspektivny Aviatsionny
Kompleks Frontovoy Aviatsii, literally "Prospective Aviation Complex of
Frontline Aviation"), a fifth-generation fighter programme of the
Russian Air Force. Sukhoi's internal name for the aircraft is T-50. The
Su-57 will be the first aircraft in Russian military service to use
stealth technology. The fighter is planned to have supercruise, stealth,
supermaneuverability and advanced avionics to overcome the prior
generation fighter aircraft as well as ground and maritime defences.
The
fighter is intended to succeed the MiG-29 and Su-27 in the Russian Air
Force and serve as the basis for the Fifth Generation Fighter Aircraft
(FGFA) being co-developed by Sukhoi and Hindustan Aeronautics Limited
(HAL) for the Indian Air Force. The prototypes and initial production
batch are to be delivered with a highly upgraded variant of the Lyulka
AL-31 engine used by the Su-27 family as interim powerplant while a new
clean-sheet design engine is currently under development. The aircraft
is expected to have a service life of up to 35 years. The prototype
first flew on 29 January 2010 and deliveries of production aircraft to
the Russian Air Force are to begin in 2019.
