Why is this that only China is still pushing on the development of the Su-33?
Why has Russia abandoned that platform?

Because canards are just drag.

Russia can't really afford to restart production and its aircraft are getting old. They're switching to the MiG-29 for their carrier, but who knows when that thing will finally sputter out.

Because they produced a shitty copycat of it.
>Why has Russia abandoned that platform?
It didn't. What gave you this idea?
Cooper Ward
It's nice to see that their aircraft are sponsored by mountain dew.
Connor Lewis
>Russia can't really afford to restart production
Russia doesn't really need to restart production. It did, however, restart production of engines.
>and its aircraft are getting old
Which aircraft in particular are getting old?
>They're switching to the MiG-29 for their carrier
They are adding MiG-29KR to their carrier, not switching to it.
>but who knows when that thing will finally sputter out.
When what thing will sputter out?

Looks like the jamming receiver pods were modified compared to the JD-16.

You’re retarded

They would make a naval version of Su-57
Dylan Wright
Not an argument, fag.

>Why has Russia abandoned that platform?
Because they have no use for it. Kuznetsov is on long-term repairs, new carrier will take at least a decade to be build. And there is no buyer on international market. Production lines on a factory are busy with Su-57, Su-35 and Su-30MK2.

Yeah, totally sounds like they've "abandoned the platform" or "have no use for it".

>upagrade from su-33 to su-30

Have you seen the Su-33's cockpit compared to Su-20SM?

The 33's.

Its decrepit.
Dylan Allen
>Posts engine room from Kuznetsov as if it proves something
Su-33 is barely older than Super Hornet. Its avionics are getting old indeed, but that's the point of the upgrade.
>Its decrepit.
What is decrepit?

Su-30SM is a production of a different factory. Su-33 is "KNAAPO", they do build Su-57, Su-35 and Su-30MK2. Irkutsk plant ("Irkut corporation") builds Yak-130, Su-30MK and Su-30SM (which is described in an article that you posted). SM is not a plane for carrier. This is ground based ATGM carrier. So, no new carrier-based Su-33.

ASM carrier
