F-22 Raptor vs SU-57 - Which would win?

F-22 Raptor vs SU-57 - Which would win? The raptor is optimized as a fast, high flying and stealth fighter jet. While the F-22 might be holding a better hand when it comes to stealth, the SU-57 has the edge in maneuverability due to its three-dimensional thrust vectoring engines. 1. Stealth Stealth was a foundational feature of the F-22 as the plane’s design maximize sensor evasion with diamond shaped wings and sharp faceted surfaces... In contrast the SU-57’s design places far less emphasis on all-aspect low observables. Instead, it focuses on frontal aspect stealth. This design philosophy gives the SU57 ’PAC-Man’ like signature. F-22’s signature looks more like a spider... 2. Maneuverability The F-22 Raptor is the most maneuverable fighter the U.S. has ever made. The Raptor uses two-dimensional vector-thrust jets which can only go up and down in unison... On the other hand, SU-57 is even more maneuverable. The fighter uses 3-dimensional thrust vectoring jets. Its engine nozzles can literally tilt independently in any direction to assist it in executing impossible maneuvers... Both aircraft are highly maneuverable. However, SU-57 advantage would be 3D thrust vectors giving it better performance in low axis. Whereas F-22’s 2D thrust vectors & larger control surfaces will give it better performance in pitch axis. 3. Performance The F-22 is powered by a pair of Pratt & Whitney afterburning turbofan engines that produces a total 70,000 pounds of thrust. The engines allow the Raptor to supercruise at Mach without afterburners. With two external wing tanks, the F-22 can fly about 1,864mi. The raptor has top speed in excess of 1,726mph and the jet can perform combat operations within the radius of 528mi. Its service ceiling is around 65,000ft. In contrast, Su-57 is powered by a pair of turbofan engines capable of generating 79,400 pounds of thrust. Unfortunately, the engines are undergoing difficulties and as a result the first batch of the aircraft will be powered by Su-35’s engines. The Su-57’s aerodynamics and engines enable it to supercruise at Mach 1.6. With ferry range of 2,200mi, the top speed of the aircraft is 1,535mph. With service ceiling of 66,000ft, its effective range of operation is up to 930mi. For the jet to effectively take on F-22, it would need the engines that maximize the design philosophies it was intended for... 4. Radar & Avionics Both F-22 and SU-57 have active electronically scanned array radars which are stealthier, more resistant to jamming and boast higher fidelity... In order to detect stealth jets, the SU-57 has modern infra-red search and track system with a 31mi of range. The raptor’s engines nozzles are designed to reduce heat signature, diminishing detection range... Overall, the Raptor has a better avionics and radar systems because of superior computing technology. The Raptor will probably have an advantage in other areas as well, such as network enabled operations, data fusion and electronic warfare. 5. Firepower The Raptor has three weapons bays. One of which can carry one Sidewinder missile. The second bay can accommodate 6 amraam missiles with a range up to 112mi... On the other hand, the jet has 2 large internal weapons bays, taking up virtually the entire length of the aircraft. Each bay can carry up to 4 BVR radar-guided missiles with ranges in excess of 100mi... Both planes carry long range radar-guided missiles of comparable effectiveness. SU57 has its cutting-edge K-77M missiles with a reported range of 120mi. While the United States has the amraam scorpion with a range in excess of 112miles. The bottom line is that both cutting-edge aircraft have advantages over each other and could come out victorious on any day. However, much will depend on the battle specifics than anything else.
