Should'nt PAK-DA come before PAK-FA. Alphabetically speaking ???![]()
The following line should make it obvious that they are talking abuot PAK-DA, not PAK-FA:
"PAK FA was expected to use 5th generation engine custom-built for Russia’s fifth-generation T-50 jet fighters."
T-50 is what is now called PAK-FA. They planned to use the same engine for a strategic bomber, but have decided against it. Also, the statements that they want it to replace Tu-160 and Tu-95 should tell anybody what they are talking about.
Seems like this erroneous article gave false hopes to some people here, and the opportunity to make a few snide remarks. Everything serves a purpose, I guess.
Who cares?
Russian still hasn't largely deployed the 4.5 gen fighter like Su-35, which its prototype was built back in the Soviet era. And it took 10 years to renovate a second hand small carrier.
You can just see how their today's efficiency goes so far.
The main reason for that is funding, the Russians have the technology, the only thing that is lacking is a steady flow of funds. India and Russia are both funding the development of PAK FA so I don't see much problem.

When time pass out, its technology will become obsolete compared to its competitors.
Obviously YOU care, judging by how you jumped in to comment on this thread before realising the error, and are now bringing in unrelated developments to continue your tirade.
Oh and by the way, Su-35's prototype was not built in the soviet era. Unless yuo are confused about what a prototype is. Maybe you are referring to the fact that it is derived from the Su-27 family. In that case, you should check up what a prototype of an aircraft is.
No no sir, it s for PAK DA the author got the name mixed up.A few weeks ago the date of induction of first t-50 was 2015 and now 2025 ?

You should read the article before you link it. Read the second sentence in it. It clearly says that what was then called Su-35 is not the Su-35 of today. The Su-27M that they calles Su-35 then was not developed. It is not to be confused with the aircraft that was built later and called S-35. Seriously, you scored a self goal there.
And read the first line here:
SU-35BM (Bolshaya Modernizatsiya - Big Modernization)
So Su-35BM has nothing to do with Su-27M?
Your logic sounds great to me.
