In sources that cover news of military equipment, information appeared on the results of testing a new engine, which it is planned to equip such aircraft of Russian aviation as SU-57.

This engine was redesigned by the Sukhoi Design Bureau and as a result was equipped with plasma ignition and an improved thrust vector. Now the draft of “Drying” is 11000 kgf, and with afterburner all 18000 kgf.

In addition, the developers were able to solve the problem of the so-called “flare”. This term refers to the arbitrary emission of flame from the engine nozzles. Since the designers were able to reduce the “flare”, the aircraft itself, in general, became more invisible during the flight, which is a good achievement.

In addition, it should be noted that the employees of the Sukhoi Design Bureau were able to use modern technologies in the development of the new engine, which, in addition to all of the above, were able to reduce fuel consumption and generally improve the flight performance of the aircraft. To talk about the improved flying properties of the aircraft, it should be mentioned that after the SU-57 is equipped with a new engine, the developers rely on the aircraft to be able to perform even a number of aerobatics.

In the comments, write what you think about the new capabilities of the Russian fighter that it received thanks to the modernization of the engine. Is it worth the designers to dwell on this or does it make sense to continue work on improving this aircraft.
