That's sped up like 2x, done with barely any fuel, all the alpha and beta limiters turned off, AND with the best pilot Russia can muster. The F-35 and F-22 can do that with 50%+ fuel load, stock alpha and beta limiters, and just about any pilot that can fly an F-35, or F-22. Flopping around in the air, losing all your energy and air speed doesn't work anymore, and hasn't since the 60s. You're just turning yourself into a slow target for an AIM-9X.

>Americans say the jet on the right is detected several hundred miles out and shot down by AIM-260 of F-35
It is detectable from hundreds of miles out, and would be shot down by an AIM-120D without the SU-57 even knowing the F-35 is there. You know it, I know it, we all know it. It has the RCS of a 4th gen F/A-18, and the heat signature of a SRBM. KEK.

>To be fair, the F35 was operated (or lack thereof) by a woman in that clip.
No it wasn't. It was a guy, and he was a LM test pilot testing the F-35B right out of the factory before it goes to the USAF. It was a mechanical failure of a fuel tube due to freak harmonics - which has been fixed.
