India and Pakistan have agreed to a ceasefire, after last week’s deadly conflict saw an important combat test for Chinese weaponry, with Pakistan employing the Chengdu J-10C Vigorous Dragon fighter jet, which used air-to-air missiles to bring down at least two of India’s French-made Dassault Rafale fighter jets.
The Su 57 is many years ahead of the Chengdu 20 C. Regardless though, there won't be 100 of either for quite some time.
The 40 or 50 Su 57's the Russians currently have will do many, many more times the damage of all the F-18s, J10s and French planes put together.
Su 57's can establish something like 16 distinct targets at 400 fn kilometers. Chinese and French and US jets are Tinker Toys by comparison.
Historically, one of the most important applications of air power has been air coverage for tanks and APC's and Troops. Since there's no way for the USA and NATO to stage enough tanks and personnel and materiel and logistics, it's all just academic.
Anything NATO does or maybe plans to do will be a made for tv drama, a la Shock and Awe, if you remember Shock and Awe. Well let me tell you something, we have no clue what "Shock and Awe" even looks like.
Putin is fidna clown Trump like nobody in the history of civilization has ever clowned anybody. Not that I don't like Trump -- I voted for Trump -- but he ran on ending the wars. Putin's "seeking a negotiated settlement" narrative is a total psyop. Trust me, the furthest thing from Putin's mind is a "negotiated settlement" in the former Ukraine.
