We have already signed the first contracts for the Su-57," Mikheyev said. The impact of these deals During the press conference, Mikheyev explained the expectations and the effect of demonstrating Russian military hardware at the airshow in Zhuhai. "The economic effect is that we have our presence on the market and our partners from friendly countries want to buy Russian reliable and proven armament and, correspondently, to support our industry with export orders so that we can develop further and from generation to generation we used to create new products for the next 10-15 years," he said. 'Su-57 is superior...' A day after the above deals were made, Russian test pilot Sergey Bogdan told the media that the Su-57 fifth-generation airplane was superior to any of the existing ones in the world. "We never lag behind. We create our weapons against some competitors and always have a certain temporal reserve. We take into account many things. Our aircraft always boast a competitive edge," Bogdan said. "When it comes to manoeuvrability, stability, and controllability, our competitors and rivals do not show everything. But in terms of what has been demonstrated, Russian aircraft are always a little bit ahead," he added. The features of Su-57 As per the TASS report on Wednesday, the Su-57 has stealth technology with extensive use of composite materials. The fighter jet can achieve supersonic cruising speeds. It is equipped with cutting-edge onboard electronic systems and other innovations, in particular, armament placed inside its fuselage. (With inputs from agencies)
