Su-57 No.509 Opens Weapon Bay for the First Time at Dubai Airshow 2025 – Full Flight Display

On November 17, 2025, the opening day of the Dubai Airshow, the Russian Su-57 (T-50 test aircraft) No.509 made its first public flight display with its latest livery. The pilot was once again the experienced and decorated Russian test pilot Sergey Bogdan. During this display, the Su-57 No.509 opened its internal and side weapon bays for the first time (the rear bay remained closed) and showcased its Kh-58USHK anti‑radiation missile and two R-74 air‑to‑air missiles mounted on the sides. This spectacular performance added an extra highlight to the show.
