Sukhoi (part of Rostec State Corporation’s United Aircraft Corporation) has patented a new light single-engine aircraft code-named Checkmate. The patent confirms that the Russian-design aircraft is superior to known foreign analogues in terms of both flight and field performance.

In addition, Russian designers have improved the Checkmate’s stability and control while maintaining its high aerodynamic performance and stealth characteristics. The new patent also states that the Checkmate’s engine can be fitted with a thrust vectoring nozzle moving in the vertical plane that is aligned with the aircraft body axis and is used for flight control and trimming.

  1. Mais c est sûr le CheckMate est le jet Figther le plus beau en realisation d Aérodynamique depuis plus de 10 ans ! Je l ai dit depuis ses premières presentations ! Son Aérodynamique est unique en successions d apports d efficacité penetration Air ! Et de diminutions de nombres de Raynolds , couche limites ! Surface mouillées ! Tout , de la pointe du Nez a la ligne d arrête finale de queue est étudié pour diminuer les forces de trainées ! Entrée Air , Wings rares, Dos , ventral et empenage sup ! Ne connaissant pas son Avionique bien sûr, j attend ce Magnifique jet en devenir en démo the Sky ! Fan ! Et! notez non Aéro du tout ! ! . Merci Thank you merci a Tous !
