PHOTOS: Russian combat drone and new Su-57 painting

The first photo of combat drone Sukhoi Okhotnik (Hunter), built by the Novosibirsk Aviation Plant, which completed its first runway tests in November, was released.

The Okhotnik also known as S-70 is scheduled to complete its first flight in 2019, with deliveries scheduled for 2020.

Coincidentally Russia also released images of a Sukhoi Su-57 fighter with a new painting that brings in the tail silhouette of the drone Okhotnik accompanying the Russian fifth-generation fighter.

Perhaps this Su-57 will be used in the Okhotnik test campaign or the painting alludes to the future joint operational use of the aircraft.
