Perhaps even more significantly, the Su-57 is also half the cost of China’s unusual looking J-20 Mighty Dragon 5th gen. fifth generation fighters, the F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II. If accurate, those costs are roughly one-third to one half the cost of the two operational U.S. The price tag of an Su-57 is quoted as approximately $54M USD. One area many analysts have missed in terms of advantages for the Su-57 is cost. Claims for higher efficiency published by subject matter expert Piotr Bukowski suggest the new engines are “17 to 18 percent more efficient than the 117 engines.” As Bukowski pointed out in his recently updated reference book on Russian aircraft, “Russia’s Warplanes, Volume 1”, there was no definition offered for the what the specifics of “more efficient” meant in terms of performance. As with most modern Russian fighters, the Izdeliye 30 is a thrust-vectored engine and has supercruise capability, enabling the Su-57 to fly at supersonic speeds without afterburner achieving longer range and better fuel economy at high speeds. The engine is claimed to have better fuel economy. The engines also have fewer components and resulting lower maintenance costs and reduced maintenance schedule. The new Izdeliye 30 engines increase the Su-57 thrust to 11,000 kg without afterburner and 19,000 kg in afterburner according to reports. The developmental engines on the PAK-FA were a consistent source of criticism, especially following a sensational compressor stall incident at the MAKS 2011 airshow. The Izdeliye 117 was never meant as a permanent powerplant for the Su-57 and its use drew criticism, some of it unwarranted, from western analysts. These original Izdeliye 117s were reported to be underpowered for the Su-57s 55,116 pound reported take-off weight. Now I corrected it.The new engine replaces the former NPO Saturn Izdeliye 117, also referred to as the AL-41F1.

Later I will update the (second) skin pack with ECM pod skins to match each new skin colore made in this pack, as I did in the first pack.Įnjoy and let me know what you think about them in the commentary section. The other skins are expo skins (red/white demo/green), two Russian skins (camo 1/camo2) and one Laos skin. Paran skin was a request of one of my friends who's been a good boy all this time (you're welcome!). The second pack gets two whatif skins (Paran and Argentinian). I want to thank to our estimeed collegue and friend Ludo.m54 who found time, between his valuable projects, to design four superb skins for this pack. This skin pack took a longer time than I previously calculated because of the holiday and the pandemic, of course.
