Su-35 Multirole Fighter

摘要

The development and production of the Su-35 (Russian designation Su-35S) 4++ generation super-manoeuvrable multi-role fighter is one of the top-priority programmes of the Sukhoi Company, a United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) subsidiary. The final stage of the State Joint Acceptance tests is now under way. The flight tests fully proved the required primary specifications of the aircraft and its suite of on-board equipment. The tests also demonstrated its super-manoeuvrability, confirmed stability and controllability, and established the powerplant parameters and navigation system operability. Maximum speed at low level is 1,400km/h, or 2,400km/h at altitude. The service ceiling is 18,000m. The radar target detection range is up to 400km in the air-to-air mode, which considerably exceeds that of current in-service aircraft. The phased array radar detects targets at a longer range and can simultaneously track and engage a greater number of threats (tracking of up to 30 and engagement of up to eight aerial targets, tracking of four and engagement of two ground targets, plus an option of simultaneous monitoring of air and ground situations). The on-board optical sensor suite detects and tracks several aerial targets at a range of up to 80km.
