Su-57 Requires Su-35 Escort, #su57 #su35 #russiaukrainewar #kh69 #cruisemissile, MASA Military

While the Russian Air Force started integrating the Su-57 with small numbers of units, the Su-57's contribution to the Russian military was minimal, and its impact on the Russo-Ukrainian war was negligible. Mainstay aircraft such as the Su-35, Su-34, and Su-25 remain the primary force for executing missions in the Russian Air Force.

The Defense Blog and other English military websites have recently reported that on February 18, for filming its military propaganda videos, the Russian Air Force once again used their most advanced Su-57 stealth fighter in a "special military operation", escorted by two Su-35 fighter jets. The fact that the stealthy Su-57 needed non-stealthy Su-35 escorts raises questions about whether the Su-57 is genuinely stealthy. The Russian military seems uncertain about the capabilities of the Su-57.
