The Americans have compared the latest Russian and Chinese 5th generation fighters. In the analysis, the capabilities of the Russian Su-57 and the Chinese J-20 were studied through the characteristics of the aircraft and the tasks of each type determined during construction.

MagazineThe National InterestRussia and China have developed fifth-generation fighters, which pose challenges to US dominance. However, there are different approaches.

The magazine admits that the Su-57, even when equipped with the AL-41F1 engine, will outperform its Chinese counterpart in terms of maneuverability and supersonic performance. However, the Su-57's performance will be much higher when equipped with a new engine called the Type-30.

The magazine believes that the problem with Chinese aircraft is the lack of adequate jet engines. The National Interest says that it is clear that Chinese aircraft are currently using Russian-made engines. And even if China does develop a new engine, the magazine doubts that it will increase the J-20's maneuverability to the level of the Su-57.

In conclusion, The National Interest magazine asserts that the 5th generation fighters of Russia and China initially have different priorities. For example, the J-20 is used as a long-range attack aircraft with the ability to pose a threat to US military bases and facilities in the Pacific, as well as refueling and airborne landing aircraft.

Chinese fighters are clearly not intended to engage in air combat with the US F-22 or F-35 except in defensive situations.

In contrast, Russia's Su-57 is an aircraft capable of achieving air superiority and is specialized in hunting American fighters such as the F-22 and F-35, the magazine said.
