Ajit Vadakayil: SUKHOI SU-35 THE RUSSIAN UFO JET FIGHTER PLANE

Above: The fearsome Russian SU-35.

At the 50th Paris Air Show at the Le Bourget airport near Paris, June 22, 2013, a Russian war plane, gave the cocky US air force and their narcissistic cowboy top-gun pilots a huge inferiority complex.

There has never ever been an awesome display like this ever before.

The Americans think that their F22 stealth Raptor is the best .

Well think again.

This SU-35 can whip any US fighter , including the Lockheed Martin's F-35 Lightning II and F-22 Raptor.

The Su-35 is equipped with an infra-red search and track system that could detect stealth aircraft within a range of more than 80 km .

Stealth is for RADAR -- not for IR, which is sensitive enough to detect the heat of a jet from head-on as well, either infra-red energy generated from the hot air coming out of the engines, from air friction heating the airframe, or both

Astonished experts at the Paris airshow dubbed the awesome Su-35, the "UFO" for its outstanding maneuverability.

The fighter jet performed all kinds of stunts, including Pugachev's Cobra, the Frolov Chakra, the Dead Leaf, and the unprecedented Pancake, which is an horizontal 360-degree made turn without losing speed.

The execution of Pugachev's Cobra, an amazing maneuver in which a jet fighter raises its nose to a vertical position (or even a backwards lean), greatly reducing its forward speed. In this position the pilot must increase power to maintain constant altitude, which, combined with a continued forward motion without roll or yaw, is a prerequisite of a properly executed Cobra.

A layer of radar-absorbent material has been applied to the engine inlets and the front stages of the engine compressor, halving the Su-35's frontal radar cross-section (RCS). Other RCS-reducing measures include modifications to the canopy to reflect radar waves.

The radar is capable of detecting a 3-square-metre aerial target at a distance of 400 km , and can track 30 airborne targets and engage eight of them at the same time.

SU-35 costs less than 40 million USD, just 28 % of the cost of an F22.

The F22 has a fuel volume of 2687 gallons, while the SU-35 has 4410 gallons.

The operational range of SU-35 is 3600 kms while the F22 has only 2960 kms.

The F22 has a speed of only 2410 km/hr while the SU-35 has 2500 km/hr.

SU-35 has anti-warship and nuclear strike capabilities, which the American F22 does NOT have.

The SU-35 has room for a passenger and an extra pilot , with freezer –which the F22 does NOT have.

ENJOY !

The Russian pilot treated the 4^th gen plane as an extension of his own body , caressing and stroking it.

The Su-35 has become the first Russian fighter jet to take part in the Paris Air Show since 2001, while this is the first time 1991 the US has not presented a fighter jet at Le Bourget—probably because they knew they would come second best with their fifth-generation US F-35 and F-22A.
