American experts think the MiG-35 causes confusion with the F-35

Highly appreciated by Russia, but according to American experts, the MiG-35 only confuses the number 35 of the Su-35 and the F-35.
The comment was made by US military expert Peter Suciu after Russia announced that it had completed all testing with MiG-35 fighter jets in the Russian Air Force.

“The MiG-35 has completed the integration test and received a very positive response from the pilot. There are only a few minor defects that need correction before the MiG-35 officially joins. training and combat in the Russian Air Force, “said a representative of the manufacturer MiG. MiG-35 fighter. MiG-35 fighter (NATO designation Fulcrum-F) is designed to operate in all weather conditions. Can strike air, land and sea, whether it’s a static or dynamic target. Recently, the Russian manufacturer announced the development of a new profile MiG-35D. An impressive showcase version but it’s not really a new platform. Because they are only developed based on the prototype MiG-29KR from the Soviet era. “The name MiG-35 is essentially the Russian manufacturer’s clever intent to market to the market because the number 35 makes many people pay attention to the same power as the Su-35 – a product of the manufacturer Sukhoi or Lockheed Martin’s F-35. But apart from the number 35 with the above fighters, the MiG-35 hardly performed much in the Russian Air Force’s tests and exercises, although they were integrated with the most advanced technology. Now compared to fighters of the same generation, “wrote Peter Suciu. The manufacturer equips the MiG-35 with the Phazatron Zhuk active phase array radar, and the RD-33MK engine pair allows the aircraft to reach maximum speeds of up to Mach 2.5. In terms of weapons, this fighter jet is designed with 9 armaments under the belly to help it carry most types of bombs and weapons available in the Russian Air Force including: Kh-31A anti-ship missiles with active radar probes, Kh-31P anti-radar missiles, Kh-29TE missiles and TV KAB-500Kr guided bombs … In addition, the MiG-35 is also equipped with a gun. 30mm high speed cannon. Information about the MiG-35 program has been known since 2007, but due to slow development, it was not until 2013 that the Russian Air Force announced an order for a plane for testing and evaluation before official. buy 37 pcs. But after 3 years, the manufacturer produced 3 more units. Thus, on average, each year MiG produces 1 MiG-35 fighter. At the current production rate, US experts say it is unclear whether the Russian Air Force will continue to pursue the 37-aircraft deal as agreed or not. This is also the reason why Indian customers have expressed special interest in this fighter line for a long time, but no agreement has yet been signed with the MiG manufacturer. The situation also appears to some customers in Africa and Southeast Asia. “A line of fighters produced for the purpose of domestic and export equipment, but this goal is difficult to accomplish with the MiG-35. Until now, no Russian fighter has produced any quality product. So hiu “, the American expert wrote. However, the MiG-35 is still highly appreciated by the Russian manufacturer. MiG affirmed that, although it is only a 4 ++ generation fighter, the MiG-35 fully converges the leading advanced technologies of the world military aviation industry. MiG-35 is highly competitive with the world’s leading fighters such as the Rafale, Typhoon … because MiG-35 dominates in this race because they have many outstanding features. The MiG-35 is more maneuverable, has more arsenal and is cheaper. Their specifications, avionics, electronic warfare equipment and arsenal allow the MiG-35 to compete with any kind of potential foe. With these systems equipped, in theory, it is not unreasonable for the Russian manufacturer to see the MiG-35 as a rival to the F-35.
