I'm always impressed with those levcons. The ingenuity and engineering is something I don't think has ever been done or seen before on any other aircraft, to my knowledge anyway.
The wind-tunnel testing and incorporating the FBW system to automatically operate them optimally at all varying airspeed conditions must've been excruciatingly intensive. They seem to be a better alternative to fixed LERXs since they don't operate as canards/foreplanes and certainly not as close-coupled canards. You don't really see the excessive amounts of vortices coming off of them as you would with any of the other aircraft with huge LERXs like the F/A-18 Super Hornet. They must contribute positively to the aircraft's drag coefficient.
It also looks like they've been strengthening their mechanism from initial prototypes to production. They used to have only 2 hinges.
Now there's 7 like this one which is the same aircraft in your post.
And if anyone works on cars or is a mechanical engineer of some sort would know that it's not an easy "add-on" to make loool. Particularly on something of this caliber that has to not only perform perfectly in every possible immense & extreme condition, but also last a lifetime.

They are in the same section at the newsagents I believe...

Beautiful. Full digital avionics is all fine and dandy, I suppose. I also think that old school technology shouldn't be completely dismissed, either. I think there's still a solid and necessary place for certain features in platforms as complex and advanced as today's modern fighter jets that still should be controlled with conventional switches. Touch screen is one thing, but having toggle switches for certain, particular features I think would still be much better, safer and easier to use. A balance in the ergonomics of design.
I know this is an old pic, but seeing one firing an R-74 is so damn rare I think it's worth posting.

Looks like the su-75 cockpit
Would make sense for them to be rather similar.

Re: Su-57 Stealth Fighter: News #8
It replicates two large screens placed side by side but is in actual fact one really big screen on which multiple smaller screens can be shown or if you want the whole display might show one thing... but obviously most of the time a few different things will be displayed.
The multifunction display buttons around the display are on the touch screen and can be changed by software to customise the display any way you like.
You of course have to keep in mind that the pilot will be wearing a helmet with an information field that displays information and images too and allows him to look at targets directing radar and IR sensors to display a better view of everything too.
They are doing the same thing for commanders in armoured vehicles and attack helicopters and flying drones too where onboard sensors display an external video view of the outside so with a helmet mounted display a tank commander can have the view from the top of his tank or a nearby drone, or the helicopter pilot can have a view from the nose of his helicopter for landing and flying with an unobstructed view of the ground.

So, now the Su-57, like the Su-34, has a strategic-level weapon.

The Su-34 can also carry Kinzhal.

"Comparable range" would mean something between 3.000 and 5.000km. wrote:
This is exactly what would mean another technological breakthrough in Russian missile technologies. Tactical aviation would obtain long-range cruise missiles.

The Gremlin, LRBM, plans of klevok-D2 over hermes, are basically the reasons I are assuming the 300km range will be on a R-77 design than a R-37 design.

It already has them. Currently only the Su-34 can launch long-range cruise missiles, but the Su-30 and Su-35 should be able to use them, too.Tactical aviation would obtain long-range cruise missiles.
