MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The T-50 is currently undergoing flight tests that have so far been successful.
"The first T-50s should enter into service in 2016. We haven’t drafter the drill plans for next year yet, but, believe me, it [the plane]…will be immediately tested in all its capabilities in all the different types of exercises," Bondarev said.
T-50 will become the first operational stealth aircraft for the Russian Air Force and will incorporate advanced avionics and all-digital flight systems.
"I think that during exercises it [T-50] will also show itself from the best perspective," Bondarev told journalists adding that the plane is "excellent" and has "vast capabilities" that Russia is pinning high hopes on.
