“The Ministry of Defense approved all the technical requirements. The work on the creation of PAK YES has been deployed in the Tupolev and at the cooperative enterprises in a timely manner, ”the minister said.

Earlier, The National Interest, an American magazine, called PAK DA, a promising Russian aircraft under development, “a fundamentally new bomber.”

The author of the article suggested that the PAK DA will become a “sixth generation” aircraft.

In July, Russian Deputy Minister of Defense Alexei Krivoruchko announced that the PAK DA will be built using stealth technologies.
