@MHSangtarash In particular the T-75 ("Su-75") with open architecture and higher willingness to share technology, offers enormous opportunities for Iran, ranging from the integration of domestic weapons, avionics, and sensors to broad technology transfer with high autonomy of local production.
@MHSangtarash Hi Mohammad! Please, do you have a list of plans from the period of Minister Nasirzadeh? The link (to download PDF) was on this⬆️page, which is no longer active.
@HEMemarian Badekha also spoke about the pressure from the MoD to reduce the price of the final product.
The acquisition and operating costs are a key aspect of the project and are in stark contrast to the astronomically high life cycle costs of projects like GCAP for the same period.
@AmirIGM If the target thrust of the WS-19 is indeed in the range of 115-120 kN, then it is not much less than the thrust of the AL-31F. With an EW a quarter to a third lower than the Su-33 and a lower volume of fuel carried, takeoff with full tanks should not be a problem for the J-35.
@HEMemarian ...and the Tatra Force as a platform offers higher mobility and, above all, greater flexibility for the installation of sensors compared to the BTR-82. Ballistic protection is a very relative term today...
@HEMemarian Exactly. Incidentally, an attempt to compensate for the loss of lift by switching to the limiting mode of the TV7-117ST engines led to a fire and crash of the Il-112V prototype.
@HEMemarian Considerations about military versions are only theoretical for now. UZGA has received permission to fly the prototype and only then will it be clear what to do next.
