**Bengaluru, India** – Aero India 2025, Asia’s largest air show, will feature a historic first: the simultaneous display of the Russian Su-57 and American F-35 stealth fighter jets. The event, taking place February 10-14 at Air Force Station, Yelahanka in Bengaluru, promises to be the largest ever, with over 900 exhibitors, including 150 international companies, occupying over 42,000 square meters.
This unprecedented showcase of both Eastern and Western fifth-generation fighter technology will allow attendees to compare the capabilities of the Su-57, described as Russia’s premier stealth multi-role fighter with superior air superiority and strike capabilities, and the F-35 Lightning II, Lockheed Martin’s widely deployed flagship fighter boasting advanced stealth, situational awareness, and networked combat capabilities. Both aircraft will conduct high-speed aerial maneuvers and tactical demonstrations.
The Defence Ministry highlighted the event’s significance, stating it marks a milestone in global defence collaboration and underscores India’s growing role as a central hub for international aerospace partnerships. The overarching theme of Aero India 2025 is “The Runway to a Billion Opportunities.”
