Ace Combat 8 Database
Su-57 Felon
A cutting-edge stealth fighter designed to succeed current air superiority fighters such as the Su-27 and MiG-29. Developed based on the PAK FA (Prospective Aeronautical Complex of Front-Line Aviation) program, it features thrust-vectoring nozzles, all-moving tail wings, all-moving wing strakes, LERX (LEVCON) on the front edge of the main wings, and more. All of this was designed to give it a high level of maneuverability. Additionally, it features stealth mechanics that do not impede these features. It was called both "T-50" and "PAK FA" before receiving an official name.

Flight model
The raw flight data from the game files (campaign version). Speeds are in km/h. The other numbers use the game's own units. The values keep the game's field names, because what most of them do is still unknown. Under Stability and Defense are the fields that match those in-game bars best. Mobility matches the rotation rates. How the game calculates the bars is unknown.
The game's curve points for this aircraft are out of order (a lower speed follows a higher one); they are drawn as stored.
