I am going to have to disagree with you.one reason would be that the su-37 can out manuvere a raptor.and there are even proof.like viedios.what proof does the raptor have any proofs??? becase i havent got any proof in all the years

It is eye watering to see what happens to bad guys in the air and on the ground when this airplane does it's thing, it's virtually untouchable when flown right, and I have 2000 hours of F-15C time + 3 tours over Iraq and 2 in Serbia (one being Allied Force) to back up why I know that, plus about 450 hours in the Raptor now including 3 years in the test world over the Nevada test ranges doing everything you can do with this jet - it's a remarkable machine we've built, it's truly a superfighter. It also has the integrated sensor suite that is top notch, you COULD build that into other fighters but you'd have to totally redesign them to make it so, and you'd end up spending so much that it's cost prohibitive - and since the sensors themselves are built into the aircraft all over the place under the skin you'd really have to make significant changes to get them even close to the Raptors sensor suite & integration performance levels. The situational awareness the jet provides is that good - it's like sitting in the ACMI shack watching a mission where each jet has a pod on it telling you where & what each player is doing, the pilot of a Raptor has that same level of information while flying - but he's getting it from the jets sensors alone not from anything else, it's better than an AWACS picture, we sometimes turn it off because we see the same thing they do and with higher fidelity. .

Su-32? There is no Flanker variant with that designation. And trust me, it wasn't up against all of the fighters on the market.

Its a known fact any time a SU performs its so called SUPERIOR MANUV, its only because it was low speed, STRIPED from its combat stance (pylons, electronics, etc) or both.
YOU NEED PROOF
1. INTERNET > its all over the place
2. EVEN History Channel
3. READ my next post that WESTY put up already.

But I am curious as to where your brother got this information as well, and from what magazine, never heard of the "penetration" excersises in India, they sound interesting.

What penetration exercises involing the Su-32/34 were conducted in India?

Is it?
I don't think anyone sensible could call a statement made by a pilot [especially one of a rival airforce] as anything remotely approaching a fact on the matter. So I assume you are referring to some other reference, could you please post it?

Forgive me but I wouldn't put it past the Russians to strip their air show aircraft of anything unnecessary for the demo flights.

Until I'd see such an allegation from what I'd term an impartial source, I'll pay little heed.

Why?" Because people keep bringing up how Russian aircraft maneuver at air shows as proof that they are more maneuverable than the F-22. He said "reliable sources" what tat means I cannot tell you, I assume other individuals involved in the military aviation industry and or even foreign pilots, maybe. Also, he never said the F-22 was more maneuverable than the latest Russian fighters, he did say however that it can do everything they can, and vice versa.
