India eyes 5th generation Russian fighter jets

India is considering procuring Russian fifth-generation fighter aircraft, the Sukhoi Su-57, to boost the Air Force arsenal.

Axar.az informs that the Indian TV channel NDTV reported this, citing sources.

The Air Force, the sources added, may order 40 such jets if India eventually decides to go ahead.

Aerial warfare has entered an era in which detection, and not combat capabilities, will be the key differentiating factor. Fifth-generation fighter aircraft, such as the Sukhoi Su-57, come with enhanced stealth capabilities that make detection by enemy forces difficult.
