  • Russian technolgy is poor, iran purchased the russian jets and they are regretting . Russian submarine technolgy is also a failure . American technology is far better than russians

  • @Maverickrad there's nothing high tech in passenger jets, everybody can make them, look at the Brazilian built planes, but military equipment requires new technology, and is far more profitable, Russia is very experienced in that field.

    You can make a copy of A380 or a Boeing, but to make a copy of a Sukoi fighter or Kamov attack helicopter is impossible!

  • @Maverickrad Russian engineering is shit? that's why they make the best missiles, best attack helicopters, and best fighter jets? the big money is in the military sector, that's where their main focus is. Technologically speaking passenger jets are 30 years behind fighter jets.

  • @Maverickrad lol, Sukhoi made all modelling stuff with the help of Boeing consultants, so please we do not need this Italia talks here. Engine is 50/50 by Snecma and Russia' Progress. Avionics and other stuff were provided by european and american subcontractors.

  • This kind of aircraft is good for short-mediu distance flight and in my opinion will be perfect for serving archipelago countries, like Indonesia or Philippine for instance...Well it is going to be very close competition for Boeing and Airbus. Well, in term of fuel consumption and seats I have no idea if it suitable for kind of low cost carriers...any one have a info?

  • @Maverickrad

    "everybody knows" is not an argument. try harder.

  • Werry nice,,

  • Fucking hell, Sukhoi... they even make their passenger aircraft look wicked.

    ...But can it do Pugachev's Cobra?

  • @rp1dmc watch?v=_9aWhzFpTog
