The first participants for the 19th Dubai Airshow 2025, scheduled to take place from November 17th to 21st, have begun arriving. Among them is the fifth-generation fighter jet, the Su-57E. The aircraft, piloted by Sukhoi Design Bureau test pilot and Hero of Russia, Sergey Bogdan, completed a non-stop flight and landed in Dubai, as reported by the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC).
The Su-57E (tail number 5709) will be showcased in both static display and flight demonstrations. Its flight program will feature aerobatic maneuvers designed to highlight the fighter’s capabilities in roll and turning, as well as super-maneuverability figures under various flight regimes. The aircraft’s aerodynamic stability at high angles of attack will also be demonstrated.
The Su-57E is intended for the international arms market and is equipped with advanced avionics, electronic countermeasures (ECM) systems, and an engine with variable thrust. Its participation in the Dubai Airshow provides an opportunity to assess its compliance with the requirements of export customers and its potential integration into foreign air forces.
The flights and demonstrations also offer a chance to analyze the aircraft’s operational performance in the high-temperature and humidity conditions of the region.
