You can think about stealth as a glass: while it's transparent for visible spectrum, it is still solid for infrared and ultraviolet wave lengths. And Su-35/57 and S-300/400 can emit other wave lengths - X-band and L-band. The range of EM wave frequencies object is invisible for is depended on the distance between molecules (look up diffraction formulas), so there is no way to make object stealthy for all the frequencies at the same time

The fun thing about su57 is that it has 3 radars which is n036 x band one on nose and two on sides and 2 transceivers n036 L band on wing leading edge flaps. Now, the radars help it lock on Target or guide on target even while defending itself and the transceivers help it use friend and foe system and electronic warfare.

​@@user-gx3nf8xg7q You don't have to be an expert to know the RCS of an F-22 or a Su-57. The main problem is the huge radar ahead of the F-22 or Su-57. This radar reflects the radio signal better than anything in the world because it is designed to receive the signal. So the RCS of these fighters cannot be lower than the diameter of these radars, so it is definitely higher than 0.1, because 0.1 is the diameter of a Tomahawk cruise missile in flight, and the width of the radar is higher than a Tomahawk missile. This is not to mention other signal receivers, which are stuffed with fifth-generation fighters. It is simply impossible to hide this radar anywhere, all developments to reduce the visibility of onboard radars do not give significant results. It is important to realize that such fighters as the F22 and Su-57 achieve maximum effectiveness at high altitude and high speed. In such conditions, their missiles fly significantly farther. And if you know the principle of operation of pulse Doppler radars, you should realize that in such conditions their visibility increases many times. Because of the Doppler effect.) That's why there's no radar on F117 or B2. Stealth on fighters is as much marketing as super maneuverability.

@@phunkracy Surely more modern missiles don't have this weakness. It's not too hard to program a processor that goes: "ok, I'm heading towards the ground right now, let's not. I'll just fly horizontally towards the aircraft I am targeting and when I get closer then I will prioritise heading directly at it". It's not going to just decide to turn it's heading 100°. You are more or less mapping its 3D route onto a top down 2D one and it ignores the targets altitude change if it is decreasing beyond a certain rate. If there are friendlies in the direction of the target then that is the pilots decision, nothing to do with the missile.

This was the most intense engagement yet. Great video!

Epic battle. Great vid. Thx for the great Content GS

Would be cool to see a b21 raider BVR engagement with the AIM 260's against j20's

The SU-57 is highly stealthy when its nose is pointed at you, not so much when it turns away.

That's the philosophy. It either dukes it out with the enemy at long range where stealth matters, or when it close quarters it sacrifices stealth for flight performance.

@@fgk765jkh Maximum stealth happens when the nose is pointed at you for any aircraft; that doesn't mean all stealth fighters have shit stealth from all other angles (as the SU-57 does), it just means they don't have maximum stealth. Nice display of the most common character trait of the Dunner-Kruger effect: idiots always call everyone else idiots the instant they disagree.

Su-57 has a minimum RCS larger than a super hornet, calling it stealthy is a joke

I just think its insane how at 5:06 you couldnt hear the f-22 until it was past the pov guy. Amazing stealth fighter.

Two of the best going at it. I could watch that all day.

I feel like numbers would have something to play here too. Russia only has like what, 5 Felons right now? The US has something like 180 active Raptors. I doubt it would get to the point where it's one Felon vs one Raptor. Love these fights though. It would be interesting to see if 1 Felon stands a chance against multiple F22s

Just looked and 21 Felons including 10 prototypes. And not at all in active service. I doubt they ever will be, despite Russian claims otherwise. A few of their "new weapons" are like this. T-14 is still just a parade tank and the AK12 does get deployed, but with no optics which was the whole point of adopting that POS.

The situation of a direct clash between two fighters in the middle of nothing is impossible in principle in the modern world. Russian military doctrine considers aircraft primarily to be a means of reconnaissance, support and missile deployment. Air defense should be used to confront other aircraft in direct combat. Russian military doctrine also assumes that the interaction of the armed forces is more significant than their individual superiority. This difference arises from the fact that the Russian military doctrine was built and is being built for military operations near or inside its borders, and therefore simply does not imply independent military actions of any of the branches of the armed forces, while the American doctrine is built with the idea of fighting far from its own territory, where the main means will be precisely aviation, while the navy will act as a maximum means of basing it, and the army as a means of retaining the already occupied territory.

You probably wanted to show a close range fight, but if you wanted to get as much advantage as possible, you shouldn't have launched 2 missiles at once at the end.

My oh my, what an excellent video! Loved it, thanks for the faceoff!

That was badass! Highly entertaining......subscribed!

The F-22 is an insane aircraft accomplishment if you consider that despite being introduced in 2005, it's still stealthier than our biggest competitor the Su-57 more almost 20 years later.

Keep making these videos bro. Both my son and myself love your videos and how you explain the details behind your dogfights. Again, great work. Shoot out to Longshot as well!

Su57 is definitely stealthy. It has never been spotted in combat.

not necessarily. possibly something like a helicopter or balloon, but they aren't designed to lead a target if i'm not mistaken.

This one would be a great candidate for that post flight analysis with the 3d replays GS puts up sometimes.

Felon is an NFO

Ancient radars can pick up stealth aircraft, but aren't much more useful than that, IIRC. So maybe Russians can tell the Felon pilot that they are going to be eating missiles from whatever oclock.

Hope you feel better soon man! Also cool vid!

I don't know whether Russians can see stealth or not, but I was the fifth view on this video so I think my abilities come close.

I love more bvr fights

On a normal day I would have literally no point in watching your videos but you make them so interesting I've been watching them for a while now :) keep it up!
