China praises Russian SU-57

Earlier in May, the new Russian next-generation Su-57 fighter jets, capable of destroying all types of air, ground or naval surface targets, passed all tests and fulfilled all set requirements.
A Chinese expert from the Sohu media outlet praised the new Russian cutting edge Su-57 fighter, noting that Russia has made a "breakthrough", since Su-57 is the first fifth-generation plane with the abilities of a sixth-generation aircraft.
The expert outlined the possibility of an unmanned piloting mode and artificial-intelligence combat capabilities. Technology implemented in the Su-57 can allow it to have extreme overload, only limited by the amount of physical abuse tolerable by the pilot.
"Another five-generation aircraft made a breakthrough, as the Russian Su-57 was tested for the first time. Unmanned driving mode allowed Russia's fifth-generation aircraft to use the technology of the sixth-generation aircraft, and then the Russian military ordered immediate production", the expert's article said.
The trials of the Su-57 jets were conducted earlier in May , resulting in the fighters fulfilling all requirements.
The planes, capable of destroying all types of surface targets, were ordered by Russian Ministry of Defence in 2019.
