En general, concuerdo con los puntos positivos y negativos del Su-57 que describe el autor. Aunque como siempre, los autores americanos elevan al F-22 al cielo, y bueno, no podemos quejarnos de todo.
Hay que destacar que hay muchas cosas que aun desconocemos del Su-57, como las características de su IRST, de su radar, y ciertas cosas que aun faltan por incorporar, como los nuevos motores. Aun es mas pronto de lo que parece.

Voy a aprovechar para dejar un par de datos de esta maniobra anti-BVR
Iraqi MiG-25 broke radar lock by flying perpendicular to approaching F-15Cs on 19 Jan 1991 (page 49 of F-15C Eagle Units in Combat)
"Kluso" got a good lock, and was ready to shoot at targeting range, when the MiG went to the beam [perpendicular to Tollini and Pitts] and took it down low. We lost them, "Kluso" never got his missile off and we totally lost SA for a little bit.
F-15C tried to break radar lock (page 55 of F-15C Eagle Units in Combat)
I locked onto a target at eight miles and initiated my ID matrix, at which point I had an RWR indication that I had a "Slot Back" radar (MiG-29) locked onto me. I notched to the south and passed as much information to "Mole" as I could - "Altitude 8000 ft, off of my nose". My concern was self-preservation. I had 580 knots on the jet, I was well below 5000 ft and I was trying to stay on the beam while my ECM and chaff did all that they could.
Sea Harrier FRS1's anti-BVR tactics (pages 64 and 65 of Sea Harrier - The Last All-British Fighter)
The F/A-18 always used to play Red Air "Alamo" tactics for us and it used to be quite easy for us to defeat their AIM-7 Sparrows, turn on the beam, and then run in to the visual fight. (

Esto me hace llegar a una conclusión, que importante que es el IRST!
