According to analysts from the American publication Military Watch Magazine, Russian engineers are incorporating technologies from the fifth-generation Su-57 fighter jet into the development of the next-generation strategic bomber — the PAK DA (Prospective Aviation Complex for Long-Range Aviation).
The authors noted that the ongoing PAK DA program relies on a significant number of components originally designed for the Su-57. Among them may be hydraulic actuators and gear joints used to control the aircraft’s internal weapons bays. It is also expected that the bomber will carry all its armaments internally to maintain a low radar signature.
The article emphasized that adapting Su-57 technologies for other aircraft programs is a common practice in Russia’s aviation industry. For instance, the modernized Tu-22M3M bomber already features a communication system similar to the one installed on the Su-57 fighter.
