New Russian Fighter Jet - SU-30

Russia now has #1 fighter plane in the world... SU-30- Vectored Thrust with Canards. As you watch this airplane, look at the canards moving along side of, and just below the canopy rail. The "canards" are the small wings forward of the main wings. The smoke and contrails provide a sense of the actual flight path, sometimes in reverse direction.

^ funny but true. Sad how even cavemen get the concept of gravity. That fighter plane aint shit, the u.s tops that any day.

Its called stalling, but the vectored thrust is cool. I thought the F-22 didn`t have that?

the F-22 has an advantage with stealth, and probably a better weapon system, but as for straight up maneuverability, the SU-30 has the f-22 beat because it doesn`t have to maintain a stealth profile.

IT`S NOT STALLING, it`s a fucking tail slide. (When you stall you don`t have movement control).
It`s a hard but pretty common aerobatic, search for it and you`ll find videos from crop dusters to F22s doing that.
I accept the vectorial shit gives it a little extra but, come on, I think it`s been around since Richthofen...

^If the relative airflow over the wing stops, its a STALL. If you are moving in any direction and then swap end ass to nose its because of vectoring.

If anybody since Richthofen did it its because they got a missile up their ass and sent them cartwheeling.

so ur saying we americans paid $105m MORE for some plane with the same specs the Russians made back in the 90s?! WTF?!

Clearly the only difference between the f-22 and su-30 is the speed, the price and the amount paid. Keep the the intelligent comments coming.

Considering the economics the question is not wether an F22 is better than an SU30, but wether x1 F22 is better than 4 SU30`s?

BTW WTF? did I see a Lada badge on that plane?
