"stealth"

So what is the real purpose?
To moth ball in a hanger for 20 years?

Did Russia suddenly build more than four of them?

>He posted this thread on Jow Forums first then came here when he didn't get enough replies

Sad

>So stealthy that they could get a photo of it.
Clever Russians.

Muh black ops tech thats decades ahead of this

Lmao “stealth”. Still nowhere near as stealthy as an F-22 or F-35. It barely surpasses the technological advancements made by gen 4 fighters. Is it a capable platform? Yes. Is it better than what the US fields? Lmao no. This is like that kid who put a spoiler on his Honda Civic ans swore he could out race a Porsche.

I like the 'Stealth'

No, you’re crying!

According to the article, it’s got side looking radars that can be allegedly used to find actual stealth aircraft by flying perpendicular to it.

Allegedly.

Oh... I get it. It's talking about russian propaganda.

Lmao, as if they even had that capability. Not to mention...how many of these do they have. I’m pretty sure only 4 because their economy is trash and they can’t afford more.

And that's a good thing.

why couldnt they just make the radar front facing so that they arent flying away from the other plane when using it? why isnt that radar used on russian anti air stuff? why would this bother the us? it not like the whatever plane using it actually uses stealth. sounds like maskirovka at best.

It doesn't matter how big your stick is if you can only have one of it.

Until they can build an airforce out of the Su-57's, they are not a threat to anyone but whatever units are in it's close operational range until it is either shot down, or has to be out for maintenance.

>stealth plane screaming up on your 90*
Is there anything you could actually do about that before getting a missile launched? I'm not too knowledgeable on planes.

Supposedly, if they fly perpendicular to the F-22 or whatever, it causes the F-22’s radar to dismiss it as a target and filter it out due to some sort of computer mumbo jumbo. Or something. Which I guess might work. Once.

Considering the Su57 isn’t stealth, yes. You could just shoot it.

Lmao Russia-boo fag got BTFO

So let me see if I got this right, it only works after the Russian pilot has made an approach from ahead or behind and only if there are no other assets that can feed targeting data to the F-22?

No. It works by flying 90 degrees across the F-22’s (or F-35) nose.

So it's designed to be at a massive disadvantage against the very plane it's supposed to fucking hunt? I'm confused.

Also, keep in mind that it entirely relies on the F-22’s radar going “Yep. That is definitely a fighter sized thing moving and radiating at Mach .9. But it’s not pointing towards me, so it’s not important”

if its so stealthy, then why can we take a picture of it? checkmate vatniks

stealth is a meme

Why is there smoke coming from the starboard engine? Did you guys not figure out how to engine again?

And wtf is up with the gap between the engine intaks and the fuselage? You'll never get to the side of an F-35 if their radar sees those ugly things before you've even left their 12 o'clock position. And that fucking bit sticking out between the front of the canopy and the nose.

Is of merely interim engine comrade

To back up the fact that stealth is absolutely useful? If you need me to explain to you why a stealth fighter is useful then you have some serious mental deficiencies user. Apart from being harder to target with AA, harder to track with radar, ability to do reconnaissance, stealth interceptions of enemy aircraft. The list goes on.

Go Away
Pierre Sprey

Let's say you have a fighter with a ground speed of 500 knots and a fighter that is attempting to beam it. Pulse Doppler radars work (obviously ) on the Doppler effect. With a look down shoot down radar, the anything that is closing at exactly the same speed as the fighter is flying, such as terrain is discarded. So a fighter that is beaming, by flying 90 degrees perpendicular is attempting to spoof the radar into thinking it is a piece of terrain. By flying perpendicular it should have a relative velocity equal to the targeting fighters ground speed.

The caveat is demonstrated by pic related. American radars and fire control computers are good enough that they can count compressor blades to determine a target type. Similarly if, the beaming target is silhoutted by the sky, then the computer can determine it isn't a piece of terrain. If it starts flying lower, and is masked by the terrain, then it struggles.

Tldr; for the Su-57 to beam properly it would have to fly really low.

There is no such thing as stealth while emitting radar. The radar gives away your position just like sonar does to a submarine. This is why F-22s rely on passive senors and let the AWACS blast radar at high power from behind where it is safe. This is also why USA is so big on networking sensors between vehicles. You can let some other aircraft give up its position and then communicate that information to the stealth plane. The stealth plane passively tracks targets and passively listens to friendly communications.

>to scale
Jeez those aircraft are massive. They are like 10+ kilometers long.

This is true only if the radar can't scramble it's own signal and conceal it from the enemy. But any emission is a risk.

>turn radar on
>christmas tree heyoh
Don't post retarded articles like this please.

If it's so stealthy how did they get a picture of it.

Can't the enemy still detect an emission of radio energy and triangulate it? Sure you could scramble any information contained in the signal, but emitting radio waves is still emitting radio waves.

It's like yelling out in a dark room in code. People can't tell what you are saying, but they can still tell where you yelled from.

And yet the F-35 is still hard to detect.

Read an article that dispelled this "myth". They are ways to minimize the risk but still the only way to eliminate it is to shut off the radar. Concealing your own radar signal is actually the most important part of stealth. Otherwise all fighters will be armed with anti-radiation missiles and no one will turn on their radar and air battle goes back to dog fights.

Honestly countries shouldn't invest so much money in stealth aircraft, while the SU-57 is cool, just look at what happened to the F-117 deployed in Yugoslavia in 1999, that's right americas "state of the art" stealth fighter got shot down with outdated 60's cold war SAM missiles sent by a drunk serb.

It might not be better than an F-22, but it sure as hell is better than the trainwreck that is the F-35, trillions of dollars wasted on a fighter that can't withstand tough climates.

Makes sense. Fix the plane before you fix the tertiary stuff. Oh, and the problem with the combat sim is that it does not work like it should, not that the plane itself is defiant. Every real life test has it wrecking everything.

An innovative idea.

Everybody knows the F-22 only has stealth characteristics for its Frontal RCS, that's why the Rafale can shoot it down when looking down on it from above. If they buy Chinese GaN technology that uses dual band sensors, which means it can detect stealth aircraft twice as far, and integrate it to the main system of the aircraft, also giving it the capability to be remotely controlled by China in case of emergency, Russia will be unstoppable in defending their land from America and its colleagues.

IMPRESSIVE

the combat simulation of various MDL's on the plane perfomance means that the plane isnt at fault?

do us a favor and go read what they are saying before you say again that such a thing isnt a design flaw..

>posts claims that can’t be backed up

The only thing you can claim about the F-35 is that it’s cost was astronomical. Which I’ll agree with. However, it’s still an excellent air craft and superior to the SINGLE SU-57 the Russians have. The SU-57 is a stealth fighter though, and the F-35 is a multi role platform so comparing the two is rather dumb. If you compare it to the F22 that would be better, and if that was the case the F22 is obviously the superior aircraft. So no matter what you’re gonna get BTFO.

>the combat simulation of various MDL's on the plane perfomance means that the plane isnt at fault?
The MDL is not a parameter of the planes performance, but a software upload that is incomplete.

No, it's not a flaw of the plane. It's a software issue that is being worked out.

Name an aircraft that’s better?

Su-57 program cost: $8-$10 billion
Unit cost: $50 million

F-22 program cost: $66.7 billion
Unit cost: $150 million

It's really simple matter of mathematics. They don't spend nearly as much on the development of the Su-57 and cost on an individual plane. What would any rational human being conclude is the more sophisticated fighter? The one with more resources put into it, or the one with less?

ok
let me rephrase it cause you clearly dont understand

combat simulations happens on real flight data with full load
get it? stop posting before you even read the damn report you are embarassing your self

Slaviboos inbound in 3...2...

For those not versed in combat tactics, the journalist has mixed up stealthy aircraft with the tactic of "notching" - because modern fighter radars are all pulse Doppler radars that rely on relative motion towards or away from the receiver, and because processing techniques in those radars seek to hide things like terrain, birds, trains and highway traffic from the display, it is possible to manoeuvre in such a way that you present no, or relatively little, relative movement to an aircraft or missile painting you by flying a path at 90 degrees to it - this is the "notch." However, while doing so, your radar is unlikely to be able to paint your target because of aspect.

Cheek radars, like those in the picture, enable your "sweep" to be much wider, and for the pilot to retain a radar picture of a wider area while "notching."

Taking steps to hide from radar isn't the same as designing an airframe so as to minimise radar cross section.

MDLs are region specific software uploads that deal with regional threats. Lack of data for various regional threats is not a airframe or performance issue, it's a testing and software issue.

literally every single other aircraft that has been developed after the 00s and has aesa radar on it is better

i mean you cant really compare an f22 with an mcm running on 25mhz vs f35 mcm that runs on 650mhz or even tpl on su57 that runs on 500mhz
and even those arent fast enough on a congestive airspace
