Title: Challenge or Jedi Strikes Back?Su-75 The battle for the pinnacle of the air is waiting to be seen!
Unbelievable!Su-75, the so-called "Big Mac" that claims to be going to subvert the sky pattern!Once high hopes and full of potential, but now it is more and more trembling. I don't know if you have heard of it, from the dawn of this plane to the present, all kinds of tossing, all kinds of engagement, one moment it is said that it is "the only step in the world", and then there are various technical failures, I am almost stunned by this story of "delayed takeoff"!
First of all, let's look back at the past and present life of this aircraft. Su-75, at the beginning, it was like an idea of "not doing business": it was to build a cheap and high-quality fighter, sell it at a good price, and enter the international market!However, the gap between ideas and reality is too big, right?The UAC has been heavily funded, and it is said that it has made a number of major breakthroughs. I still remember the moment when I showed my face at the Moscow Air Show, when the Su-75 caused a lot of applause!India, Vietnam and other countries have also said "I want to buy", and even the United Arab Emirates has cooperated in the development of the "General" project. But the result?Under the glamorous appearance, how many hidden dangers there are are are really unpredictable.
Let's not talk about the appearance and design of the aircraft, those words are fanciful. Have you heard of its radar-absorbing coating and steer-less supersonic air intake?These things are all over the place, but how many real results are there?Is it just enough to package yourself as a "** fighter"?The layout of the cockpit is almost exactly the same as that of the Su-57, is this an innovation or is it too lazy to use your brain?To be honest, I really don't know whether this so-called "simplified update" is a good thing or not reliable.
So, let's take a look at the latest so-called "updates". UAC recently filed a new patent to make this guy bigger and more powerful, including modifications to the wings, radar sections, and fuselage. It sounds like a great idea, but does it really work?I always felt that these updates would not solve the existing problems of the Su-75. What's more, it's a bit of a chicken rib that they haven't even solved the problems mentioned earlier, for example, because of international sanctions and the impact of Russia's actions, resources have been in short supply, and the challenges faced by the Su-75 should not be underestimated.
What's worse is that the partners are all off the chain one by one. The UAE says "bye-bye", Russia itself is making a mess internally, and it is still thinking about deploying the Su-57, and there is no extra energy to put on export projects. All this gives us a clear signal - it is really difficult for the Su-75 Checkmate to really take off!
All in all, these so-called "updates" may be able to raise concerns about the Su-75 Checkmate again, and may also trigger some consideration in other countries. However, if airplanes are always just "imaginary existences", then all this is just empty talk. Not to mention that the first flight in 2023 was postponed to 2024, even after that, we have to wait and see if this guy can take off smoothly. No matter how beautiful the vision is, there must be a day when it will fly!
Oops, can this Su-75 be "loaded and flying"!I've always said that this guy is amazing, but the reality, hey, always makes people scratch their heads. Do you say, is it the general trend, or is it just a publicity gimmick?The Chinese are also becoming more and more concerned about this issue.
First of all, to be honest, this guy's original idea was quite eagerly awaited. After all, a cost-effective fighter is cheap, isn't this the fulfillment of the buyers' dreams!UAC has invested a lot of money, and it is said that there has been a breakthrough. I remember last year's Moscow Air Show, when it appeared, it attracted a lot of applause, and the international outcry was also outcrying, and India and Vietnam lit up the interest of buyers. Even the UAE has a cooperation project!But the result?It seems that this guy is glamorous on the surface, but in fact he is in constant trouble.
Don't look at how "advanced" it is, I heard that this guy's technical failures are a lot of things. Do those so-called radar absorption coatings and inlet tract designs have a practical effect?Just by packaging it as a "** fighter", it can be soldLook at the design of the cockpit again, it is simply a copy of the Su-57, is this innovative or lazy?Are these so-called "simplified updates" reliable?
Let's talk about the so-called "updates". Recently, the UAC applied for a new patent, saying that it is to make the Su-75 bigger and more powerful, including the wing, radar section and fuselage have been modified. It sounds pretty powerful, but the question is whether it can be landedI always felt that these updates would not solve the existing problems of the Su-75. Moreover, no one cares about the problems mentioned before, and the shortage of resources, the international situation, etc. are all hard injuries!
To make matters worse, the partners are gone. The UAE said "bye-bye", and Russia itself is also a mess internally, and it is still engaged in Su-57, and it has no time to care about export projects at all. All this is sending us a signal - if the Su-75 Checkmate wants to really fly, it is estimated that it will be very difficult!
In short, these so-called "updates" may be able to rekindle interest in the Su-75 Checkmate, and may also make other countries think more. However, if the plane is always just a "blank check", then all this is just a blank song. Not to mention that the first flight time has been repeatedly postponed, even if it is late, we have to wait and see if this cargo can be "hung up". No matter how beautiful the vision is, there must be a day when it flies!
