Always nice to see what the new "iron" looks like. Been awhile since Russia introduced a new fighter.
As a WWII sim, the technical piloting of the latest jets may not be of great interest to EAW fans.

Since I could not post online for awhile, I have been reading "Cat"s stories of a Russian woman jet pilot and her adventures. Some of the attraction comes through.

But here's an example of the "jargon" that leaves me less than fascinated to be in the "pit" of a modern fighter:

My SPO-15 radar warning system warns me of multiple military radars ahead of me. I study the flashing lights intently. The most worrisome are a set of airborne radars below me and to the left. According to the return, they are closing and the most powerful. I activate my N-001 radar, selecting DVB PPS long-range head-on sorting mode, slewing the dish to the left zone. There, I see them. They appear to be closing on me, fast. Suddenly, the SPO-15 rang an alarm, radar lock! They plan to engage me! Then, the SPO-15 screamed its warning of a missile launch!

Parrafin burners.Yep fly the unfriendly skies..There is a video somewhere of an F15 pilot in iraq being engaged by at least a dozen SAM,s.You can hear the warnings going off big time..What I call a sphincter moment.
All I can say about the Sukhoi is who dropped the book and flattened the Raptor??
Looks great and hope they get many accident free miles out of her..
