Post by n33d4sp33d_85 » Sun Jul 18, 2021 11:04 pm

Markings suggest Russia's new stealth fighter might be designated the Sukhoi Su-75 "CheckMate". Some new interesting images of the new Russian 5th generation aircraft, the "CheckMate" have started to appear online ahead of MAKS 2021 airshow which kicks off next week. As we reported on Jul. 15, 2021, the jet, covered by black canvas, was first spotted as it was moved to the static display fuelling various theories around the shape of the "CheckMate", believed to be developed by the Sukhoi bureau with an eye to the international market....

Definitely X-32 vibes with that intake design. Only slightly less ugly! Curious to see more pics

Named "Checkmate" by the Russians, it is expected that the Su-75 will be largely promoted by Russia's Rostec State Corporation and United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) for export. In a recently released video representatives of various export customers are shown, namely United Arab Emirates, India, Vietnam and Argentina. These countries are likely to be interested in buying such new fourth (+) generation fighters in the future.

This comes nicely together with the mutual agreement on industrial cooperation in the field of military-technical products, incl. joint development of a fifth-generation light fighter which was signed between UAE and Russia in February 2017.

The Checkmate light stealth fighter was officially presented today at MAKS 2021. Here are some interesting things we have noticed in the presentation. The much awaited official unveiling of the Sukhoi "Checkmate", Russia's new 5th generation fighter aircraft was held on Jul. 20, 2021 at MAKS 2021 airshow in Zhukovsky, near Moscow. The event was streamed online on Youtube by Rostec, Russia's state aerospace and defence conglomerate, and, despite the quality of the feed and the fact that all the commentary was in Russian, this gave us an opportunity to virtually attend the presentation....
