All the PAK FA armament in a single infographic.

Not only does the Sukhoi T-50 PAK FA feature stunning maneuverability. As this interesting infographic shows, the fifth generation stealth multi-role combat plane will carry a wide variety of weapons, including air-to-air, air-to-surface and anti-ship missiles.

Among those that the PAK FA will be able to carry (internally or externally – hence “stealthy” or not), there are: the Izdelie 810, a derivative of the R-37M designed to kill High Value Targets and AWACS at a distance of 400 km; the K-77M air-to-air missile fitted with an AESA seeker; the KH-35UE anti-ship cruise missile; the KH-58UShKE stand-off anti-radiation missile; the Brahmos-NG supersonic cruise missile produced with India; and the KAB bombs.

Hope Russians will find the money to produce this beauty at full scale and convince indian to not withdrow from the FGFA two-seat PAK-FA. The only problem is the delay for a new engine and the exhaust that not seem stealthy. But the design is succesfull and it will be an honorable replacement for the flanker family.

“Russia’s Centre for Analysis of World Arms Trade predicts that the PAK FA will be available for export in 2025.”
