Title: The Su-35 can't beat the J-10C, and is fully crushed by the J-16, why does the Air Force still like it?
Military cooperation between China and Russia has attracted much attention in recent years, and China's decision to buy Russian Su-35 fighters has caused widespread speculation. The reasons for the deal are multi-faceted, including technology needs, fighter capacity, tactical flexibility, and deepening strategic cooperation between China and Russia.
First of all, China's interest in the Su-35 stems from its striking performance and advanced components. The Su-35 has super-maneuverable flight capabilities, excellent over-the-horizon combat capabilities, advanced on-board equipment, snow leopard wing design, cloudless phased array radar system, and A41F1S engines, which are all factors that attract China. In particular, the performance of the A41F1S engine, which provides the Su-35 with a range of more than 200 km, has made it the focus of attention of the Chinese Air Force.
Second, China has made remarkable progress in independent research and development and production of fighters, including J-11A, J-11B, J-10, J-15, J-16 and other multi-type fighters. However, China's introduction of the Su-35 also needs to fill the gap created by the retirement of old fighters. The Chinese Air Force has an urgent need for advanced fighters, and the performance and production capacity of the Su-35 just meet this demand.
Thirdly, the Russian aviation industry has relatively limited capacity to produce advanced fighters. Although China has made great achievements in the production of fighters, it is still difficult for the Chinese Air Force to fully meet its own needs for a certain period of time. Therefore, the purchase of the Su-35 from Russia became a reasonable option to compensate for the lack of production capacity.
In addition, the design of the Su-35 fighter is very different from the earlier Su-27 and Su-30, and it is equipped with A41F1S engines, which has the characteristics of being reborn. This provides an opportunity for China to learn and learn from Russia's advanced technology. Despite the controversy over whether to replace China's electronic systems, the Chinese Air Force's operation and evaluation of the Su-35 has provided valuable experience for the development of its future fighter.
Generally speaking, military cooperation between China and Russia is not only a technical exchange, but also a manifestation of strategic cooperation between the two sides. The purchase of Russian Su-35 fighters is a strategic decision made by the Chinese Air Force in order to meet urgent needs, fill the gap in fighters, and gain technical experience from them. This also demonstrates the close relationship between China and Russia in the military field and lays a solid foundation for future military cooperation.
