Is the SU-57 better than the f22?

Here’s What You Need To Remember: The two fighters are the best in their respective air forces and play similar roles. However, the winner in any head-to-head fight would depend on the range; generally, longer ranges favor the Su-57, while closer engagements favor the F-22.

How good is the SU-57?

The Su-57 appears to have really good onboard computers and the ability to carry several powerful, beyond line-of-sight missiles. Key point: The Su-57 is a pretty good plane, but it will take time and money for Moscow to produce many of them. Moreover, the warplane is still not on par with the F-35.

Does Su-57 have stealth?

The Su-57 ranks last in stealth among its 5th-generation counterparts, but that doesn’t mean its stealth capabilities should be utterly dismissed. Again, in combat, it’s not about whose fighter has the smallest radar cross section or infrared signature.
