Military analyst Harry Kazianis told Newsweek that if an Su-57 jet were to be shot down in Ukraine 'it would prove the plane is not truly a top-tier fighter.'
State news agency TASS reported that the Russian air force was to receive 22 aircraft by the end of 2024, bumping this figure up to 76 by 2028.
The U.S.'s F-22 Raptor aircraft is a fifth-generation stealth jet hailed by manufacturers Lockheed-Martin as the"best air dominance fighter in the world." Most commonly compared with the Su-57, however, is the F-35, described by Lockheed-Martin as the"most lethal, survivable and connected fighter aircraft in the world."
Although the Su-57"represents the best of Russian aviation" and exceeds the capabilities of fourth-generation fighter jets such as the F-15 and F-16,"it is no match for the F-22 or F-35."
