Army and Weapons | Deadly Russian Sukhoi T50 PAK FA | The Sukhoi PAK FA or Perspektivny aviatsionny Kompleks frontovoy aviatsii, literally "Prospective Airborne Complex Frontline Aviation is a twin-engine jet fighter developed by Sukhoi OKB for the Russian Air Force. The Sukhoi T-50 is the prototype of the PAK FA. PAH FA is one of only a handful of stealth jet programs worldwide.
The PAK FA, when fully developed, is intended to succeed the MiG-29 and Su-27 in the Russian inventory and as the basis of the Sukhoi / HAL FGFA be developed with India to serve. A fifth-generation fighter, the T-50 has its first flight January 29, 2010. The second flight was on February 6 and the third on February 12, 2010. As of August 31, 2010 had made 17 flights and mid-November, 40 in total. The second prototype was to begin his flight to test the end of 2010, but this was postponed until March 2011.
Sukhoi director Mikhail Pogosyan has projected a market for 1,000 aircraft over the next four decades, which will be produced in a joint venture with India, Russia and India each for 200 and 600 for others. He also said that India's contribution would be in the form of joint work under the current contract rather than as a joint venture. The Indian Air Force "to acquire 50 single-seater fighters of the Russian version" for the two-seater FGFA developed. The Russian Ministry of Defence will purchase aircraft from October 1st 2012, and 60 after 2016. The first batch of fighters comes with the current technology engines. Ruslan Pukhov, director of the Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies, has predicted that Vietnam will be the second export customer for the fighter. The PAK-FA is expected to be a lifetime of about 30-35 years.

The current prototype is Sukhoi PAK FA T-50.The when fully developed is intended for the MiG-29 Fulcrum and Su-27 Flanker in the Russian inventory and replaced as the basis of the Sukhoi / HAL FGFA project being developed in collaboration with India to serve. A fifth-generation fighter jet, it is designed to compete directly with Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor and the F-35 Lightning II. The T-50 has its first flight January 29, 2010. The second flight was on February 6 and the third on February 12. As of August 31 she has 17 flights in total.
Sukhoi director Mikhail Pogosyan has projected a market for 1,000 aircraft over the next four decades, which will be produced in a joint venture with India, two hundred each for Russia and India and other countries for six hundred. He also said that India's contribution would be in the form of joint work under the current contract rather than as a joint venture.

The Russian Ministry of Defence will purchase the first ten aircraft after 2012, and 60 after 2016. The first batch of fighters will be delivered without the "fifth generation" engines. Ruslan Pukhov, director of the Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies, has predicted that Vietnam will be the second export customer for the fighter. The PAK-FA is expected to be a lifetime of about 30-35 years.
