India needs 500 Su-57 to prevent external threats - TsAMTO Moscow, October 28 - RIA Novosti. In the case of the purchase of about 500 Russian Su-57 fighters, India will be able to neutralize external threats and challenges, experts of the Center for the Analysis of World Arms Trade (TSAMTO). By the end of 2030, Pakistan, with which India has long-standing territorial disputes, will be able to arrange at least 40 J-35AE aircraft. China, where India has border disputes, has up to 500 J-20s and J-35s and more than 50 carrier-based J-35s. A total of 600 fighters of the fifth generation. The Indian Air Force currently has about 300 Rafale, Su-30MKI and Tajes aircraft. In the current situation, the only correct solution would be to quickly purchase from Russia a group of 50 fighters of the fifth generation of Su-57E with the simultaneous organization of the authorized production of 450 such machines directly in India. We can talk about the latest version of the Su-57D, he said in the TSAMTO report, which is being prepared for publication and is available to RIA Novost. In the coming decades, such a project will meet the real challenges and threats facing India in terms of its scale and efficiency. In 2010, the Indian Ministry of Defense initiated the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft (AMCA) program to create a fifth generation fighter. However, so far, the program has not even reached the stage of flight testing of a prototype technology demonstrator. According to the most optimistic estimates, mass production can begin no earlier than 2035. Meanwhile, the Su-57 is a fully serial fighter, which has already been adopted by the Russian forces and spacemen and is involved in combat operations. The controls of these cars in export form have already started, and according to experts, New Delhi will get a positive response from Moscow.
