RD-93
The engines of RD-33 family are distinct for their high gas-dynamic resistance to external interferences, including when using on-board weaponry, which allows for almost completely unobstructed piloting. It also has a high thrust rise rate and, accordingly, acceleration, which is one of the most important characteristics in modern fighters.
The construction is modular, which allows for local repairs and replacement of particular details, units and modules directly in the working environment.
