The Sukhoi S-70 Ochotnik ( Russian Сухой С-70 Охотник , fighter ) is a Russian technology demonstrator for an unmanned stealth fighter that is to be used in association with the Sukhoi Su-57 .
At the end of June 2019, a scaled-down model of the S-70 was presented to the public at the Armija military fair in Kubinka . After the first flight on August 3, 2019, a first formation flight with a Su-57 followed on September 27, 2019.
The S-70 Ochotnik is a flying wing with a length of about 14 m and a wingspan of about 19 m. With a takeoff mass of around 20 t, it is comparable to the American Northrop Grumman X-47 B and thus significantly larger than the MiG-Skat or the Dassault Neuron .
