DUBAI, November 15. /tass/. The newspapers published during the Dubai Airshow 2021 international exhibition - Flight Daily News and Dubai Airshow News - came out with photos of the newest Russian fighter Checkmate and the Russian Knights aerobatic team on the front pages, a TASS correspondent reports from the scene.

"On the first day of the exhibition, Russia held an international presentation of the new Sukhoi Su-75 Checkmate aircraft, presenting a full-size prototype of the fifth-generation fighter. Yesterday, military delegations visited the Checkmate pavilion, and shortly before sunset, the plane was presented to the press," Flight Daily News said.

Dubai Airshow News notes that the highlight of the first day of the salon was also the performance of the Russian aerobatic team "Russian Knights", which demonstrated elements of aerobatics. Foreigners especially liked the "Mirror Image" element made by two Su-30SM fighters. "The dazzling spectacle of the passage of six aircraft in a single formation became a pleasant noisy part of the Dubai Airshow flight program," the newspaper says.

For the first time, the Checkmate light tactical aircraft was presented at MAKS-2021. The foreign presentation of the fighter took place at the Dubai Airshow 2021. Checkmate includes all the most advanced developments, including an open architecture for building in the interests of the customer and unique artificial intelligence technologies. The aircraft is made using stealth technologies, equipped with an internal fuselage compartment for air-to-air and air-to-surface aircraft weapons. The payload mass will exceed seven tons. The fighter will be able to simultaneously hit up to six targets. The speed of a single-engine aircraft will be Mach 1.8, and the combat radius will be 3 thousand km.

The international exhibition Dubai Airshow 2021 takes place from November 14 to 18 in the United Arab Emirates. Russia has prepared a number of world premieres for the air show.
