No doubt that the Russians can build top notch military gear in various fields, to think different would be a great mistake. The global spreading of technical knowledge and availability of first class electronics adds its own share

Questions remains however in what quantities the final platforms will be build.

If that cockpit shot represents the real thing, I can only say: chapeau! That's what I call ergonomic design.

but if there is one thing that makes me think once and again, then it is the heavy dependence of modern equipment on electronics, satellites, electricity - and the vulnerability regarding these.

Yeah, I know I know - and still I have a bad feeling about it, always.
