The departure of the SU-57 to western Europe will be the first and will certainly draw a lot of attention, not least because the fighter in theory competes with the also stealthy North American F-35 Lighting II and the F-22 Raptor, in addition to the Chinese J -31.

Russia's defense industry, which is not able to the Russian government, said that planning to fly the fighter has already begun, but nothing official has yet been announced by the government.

Gradually the SU-57 will become the spearhead of the Russian air force. The country intends to buy an initial batch of 2020 SU-13 units by 57.
