Earlier, the publication of an American portal highlighted the Russian roots of the US F-35 fighter, claiming that the creation of the new fighter was possible thanks to the fall of the "iron curtain".
The author wrote that in 1991 Lockheed and the Yakovlev project office signed a cooperation agreement which, among other things, allowed the US company to have access to Yak-141 information, including data that required "years development and testing ".
The Russian defense industry has already advanced after the development of these aircraft, military expert Viktor Baranets noted in an interview with the newsroom
"I am very surprised to read this pseudo information in the American press.
As early as the early 1990s, when our industrial military complex opened the door to former opponents, many 'interested people' flooded the Russian defense industry ... Americans have sifted through much of the results of our military-technical research. And what they were supposed to spend tens of billions of dollars on and years of research, they got everything ready because we had a wide range of research results for which the Americans paid a trifle to the heads of the defense complex, "said Baranets .
However, in his opinion, the final US version is still inferior to Russian fighters.
"The F-35 has no prestige among the Americans, even though many generals are begging the White House for its modernization. [...] Russian military-technical research, still in Soviet times, has progressed a great deal since the systems that today are used by Lockheed Martin in the manufacture of the F-35 fighter, "said the expert.
He also thanked American journalists who said the whole truth by acknowledging that it beats a "Russian heart" on the F-35.
"But we have managed to go further," he said.
