In 2021, the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aviation Plant will transfer five fifth-generation Su-57 multi-role fighters to the Russian armed forces. The first of them has already entered one of the air regiments of the Southern Military District.

By the end of 2024, 22 such aircraft will be assembled for the army, and by 2028-76, the press service of the government of the Khabarovsk Territory reports.

The contract for the production of a large batch on the personal order of Russian President Vladimir Putin was signed at the Army-2018 forum.

Now the plant's assembly shops are systematically equipped with additional stands, including unique rotary slipways for the construction of fifth-generation fighters.

In the design of the Su-57, composite materials based on carbon fiber are used, which greatly reduces its radar visibility. A multifunctional radio-electronic system has been prepared for the new fighter, which not only detects ground and air targets, but also solves the tasks of navigation, identification,electronic reconnaissance and counteraction. The fighter is armed with a twin 30-mm cannon, which includes 100 rounds of ammunition. The main armament - two melee missiles and eight medium-range missiles, are located in two internal compartments. In addition, 14 missiles can be placed on the external suspension points.
