According to the Russian world arms trade center Sept. 8 report, according to Russia’s new generation fighter aircraft production program, the Russian fifth generation fighter T-50 production will not will be lower than 1000. Russian Air Force have been previously identified in the 2020-2040 years will purchase 200-250 aircraft T-50, and if the economic situation is positive, then the number of purchases will increase to 400-450 aircraft.

given that the U.S. fifth generation fighter F-22 heavy too expensive (the export price is expected to be $ 250 million), almost no country can afford, so the Russian-made T-50 in the international market main rival will be the F-35 “Lightning-II” fighter.

present, the Russian fifth generation fighter aircraft has the first foreign customer – India (not less than 250 of its plans to purchase Russian-made Five machine).

while taking into account the size of countries and serving old-fashioned fighter aircraft required to replace the number of new aircraft, the Russian arms trade center world, experts point out that the following countries will be Russia’s main export fifth-generation fighter Market: Algeria (may be 2025-2030 years, fifth-generation fighter aircraft procurement 24-36), Argentina (12-24 planes ,2035-2040 years), Brazil (24-36 aircraft ,2030-2035 years), Venezuela (24 -36 aircraft ,2027-2032 years), Vietnam (12-24 planes ,2035-2040 years), Egypt (12-24 planes ,2040-2045 years), Indonesia (6-12 frame ,2028-2032 years), Iran (36-48 frame ,2035-2040 years), Kazakhstan (12-24 planes ,2025-2030), China (about 100 ,2025-2035), Libya (12-24 planes ,2025-2030) Malaysia (12-24 planes ,2035-2040 years), Syria (12-24 planes ,2025-2030).

Overall, the Russian arms trade center world, experts say, considering the huge demand in India, the Russian fifth generation fighter aircraft export volume will reach 548-686.

Although the company’s fifth-generation Sukhoi T-50 fighter aircraft to enter the world market, time is later than the U.S. F-35, but with a more excellent performance, fully able to surpass the Russian-made fighters. Also need to consider is that this half of the world, many countries have encountered challenges from the United States, they want to maintain their policy of independence, it will seek to find other areas in the military high-tech partner .

therefore, does not rule out that some Western European countries such as France and Germany, will be considered in developing a new generation fighter aircraft with Russia to cooperate. Single product in these countries can not implement their own strength fifth generation fighter program, the procurement of F-35 will enhance their technical and political dependence on the United States.
