Satellite Imagery Confirms Russian Su-57 Fighters Are In To Syria


War Zone/The Drive: Satellite Imagery Confirms Russia Deployed Stealthy Su-57 Fighters To Syria

At least two of the jets are in-country and they are likely to begin "combat evaluation" sorties soon.

Our initial analysis has been outright confirmed and at least two Russian Su-57s have been forward-deployed to Khmeimim Air Base in western Syria. Satellite imagery dated February 23rd, 2018 shows two of the aircraft parked on the base's tightly packed fixed-wing tactical aircraft ramp.

It appears that one of the aircraft wears the "shark" scheme, first seen of fifth T-50 prototype "Blue 055," while the other seems to wear a similar paint job, albeit with less contrast and a "pixelated" or "digitized" design first on T-50 "Blue 509."

You might not have noticed, but a shitload of 'Murkin's elected to defect in 2016. In 2018 the numbers will be record breaking.
