Very very similar, I would wager.

Don't think so. Read somwhere(don't remember where) that Russian engineers have tried their best to reduce the RCS of the Su-34 when compared to the normal flanker. And that it will have RCS of a cruise missile.TR1 wrote:Indian Flanker wrote:Any idea how low the RCS of Su-34 is vis-a-vis a normal Su-27?

It's amazing that Russian/World media is so silent about this masterpiece fighter bomber? We know more about PAK-FA than this bird?
PS: Even Su-35S' RCS is much less when compared to other flankers IIRC.

Actually the larger the aircraft, the easier it is to reduce long wavelength electro-magnetic radiation emission returns, just look at the B-2 spirit bomber it is significantly larger than the F-22 but it is widely considered stealthier than the F-22 against radars using longer wavelengths.

Probably you meant Chelomej's Al'fa. Novator's Al'fa (possibly also P-900 or 3M-51) is totally different.

Novosibirsk aircraft plant them. Chkalov higher targets for the production of Su-34 bombers
