IN SYRIA, ALMOST HALF OF THE RUSSIAN SU-57S WERE TESTED
MOSCOW, July 5 - RIA Novosti. Four Russian fighters of the fifth generation of the Su-57 have received combat experience in the anti-terrorist operation in Syria, said a member of the State Duma's expert council for the aviation industry, Vladimir Gutenev.
"The stay of our four Su-57s in Syria has certainly allowed us to obtain additional information about the capabilities of this machine to detect American F-22s and F-35s that are on the same theater of operations ", - he said.
In February, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu reported that two Su-57s carried out a test program in Syria for two days.
