29-570: Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Plant The Sukhoi Su-75 Checkmate ( Russian : Сухой Су-75 ), also designated as the Light Tactical Aircraft ( LTA ; Russian : Лёгкий Тактический Самолёт - ЛТС , romanized :  Legkiy Takticheskiy Samolyot - LTS ), is a single-engine, stealth fighter aircraft under development by Sukhoi for export and for the Russian Aerospace Forces . The Sukhoi Design Bureau also designates

58-676: A helmet. Barrymore could ski unencumbered while capturing footage of scenery and other skiers. Though the unit was heavy relative to its manner of use, it was considered hands-free, and worked. Numerous companies have developed successful POV designs, from laparoscopic video equipment used inside the body during medical procedures, to high tech film and digital cameras mounted to jets and employed during flight, or on helmet based systems used by cinematographers. These designs are expensive, and mostly bespoke or DIY solutions. There are systems made by camera equipment manufacturers, but they require professional filmmaking experience and training. Up until

87-407: A separate category and given special consideration. A point-of-view shot is as close as an objective shot can approach a subjective shot—and still remain objective. The camera is positioned at the side of a subjective player—whose viewpoint is being depicted—so that the audience is given the impression they are standing cheek-to-cheek with the off-screen player. The viewer does not see the event through

116-632: A set of elevators and a tail separately controlling pitch and yaw, a pair of combined ruddervators fulfil both roles. However, ruddervators require more sophisticated flight-control systems than conventional empennages. According to the jet's designers, the Checkmate is designed to fly with a range of up to 3,000 km (1,864 mi), carry a payload of up to 7,400 kg (16,314 lb), and reach speeds of up to Mach 1.8 to 2.0. The fighter will also feature an internal weapons bay with five missiles and an autocannon. Patents published in 2023 indicate that

145-763: The Russian Far East , is the largest aircraft-manufacturing company in Russia . The company is among Khabarovsk Krai's most successful enterprises, and for years has been the largest taxpayer of the territory. In 1999 and 2001 the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of RF granted KnAAPO the title "best Russian enterprise". The company currently produces Su-27SM/SKM fighters, Su-33 and Su-27KUB shipborne fighters, and Be-103 amphibians, among others. In February 2015

174-611: The Sukhoi Su-57 , and started in August 2021 to produce the Sukhoi Su-75 Checkmate . The plant uses Dzyomgi Airport as a testing and delivery airfield. Shareholders of KnAAPO (JSC): Point-of-view shot A point of view shot (also known as POV shot , first-person shot or subjective camera ) is a film scene —usually a short one—that is shot as if through the eyes of a character (the subject). The camera shows what

203-494: The izdeliye 30 engine will have a much longer life span than other Russian engines. Due to restrictions preventing taking cockpit photos, NBC News Matt Bodner, the first Western journalist able to see the jet in person, provided a preview without a point of view photo. According to Bodner, the cockpit layout is identical to the Su-57 with a glass cockpit with two 38 cm (15 in) main multi-functional LCD displays similar to

232-510: The leading actor is the subject of the POV it is known as the subjective viewpoint. The audience sees events through the leading actor's eyes, as if they were experiencing the events themselves. Some films are partially or totally shot using this technique, for example the 1947 film noir Lady in the Lake , which is shot entirely through the subjective POV of its central character in an attempt to replicate

261-492: The 2010's, the race for hands-free POV cameras for use on a consumer level has faced problems. The technology has had issues with usability, combining lenses with microphones with batteries with recording units; all connected using spidery cables, which proved cumbersome in use when compared to the quality of the end content. Since then, improvements in mobile phone camera systems and the introduction of action cameras from companies like GoPro , DJI , and Insta360 have risen to

290-579: The Checkmate will share the same components and avionics as the Su-57 as a cost-reduction mechanism by the Sukhoi Design Bureau. Rostec is anticipating that Argentina , India , Vietnam and Iran will become the primary export destinations for the aircraft, with the African market also showing interest. In 2021 Sukhoi estimated the demand at 300 planes, and aimed to export the Su-75 to African countries over

319-591: The European Union. The potential export sales also stalled because Russia cannot trade using U.S. dollars. In July 2023, analyst Maya Carlin of the Center for Security Policy wrote that sanctions against Russia, due to the ongoing invasion of Ukraine had slowed or stopped the aircraft's development. In particular noted was the loss of funding from the United Arab Emirates due to sanctions, which had been sustaining

348-754: The Su-75 program. Some experts suggest India should consider the Su-75 due to it being a cheaper alternative than other multirole fighters such as the JAS 39 Gripen . Data from Rosoboronexport, Flight Global, Breaking Defense, Suciu, Global security Lieser and Filseth General characteristics Performance Armament Avionics Related development Aircraft of comparable role, configuration, and era Related lists Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Plant Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Plant ( KnAAPO or KnAAZ ; Russian : Комсомольский-на-Амуре авиационный завод ); based in Komsomolsk-on-Amur in

377-559: The Su-75's development, as the UAE seeks instead to acquire F-35s, with potential support from Israel. The Su-75 has a diverterless supersonic inlet (DSI), a v-tail and internal weapons bays —all features intended to reduce radar signature . The wing area appears large, which has been interpreted by correspondent David Axe to imply that Sukhoi designed the fighter to fly and engage in combat at high altitudes—40,000 ft (12,000 m) or higher. The angular ventral inlet, which wraps around

406-543: The aircraft as T-75. A static non-flying prototype was unveiled at the 2021 MAKS air show with President of Russia Vladimir Putin in attendance. The Checkmate's maiden flight was first scheduled for 2023 and then slipped to 2024 but then it got delayed to 2025, with initial deliveries planned for 2026–2027. The Checkmate is designed to be low cost and for export, and may compete with the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II and Shenyang FC-31 aircraft of

435-516: The arrangement of the Su-35S. The cockpit has a wide-angle (30° by 22°) head-up display (HUD). The electronic infrastructure of the Checkmate is all open-architecture and makes use of "Matryoska" diagnostics systems that are mostly on-board. According to Yuri Beliy, the NIIP radar design bureau plans to develop a low-cost AESA radar for the aircraft. According to then- Deputy Prime Minister Yury Borisov ,

464-405: The camera mounted to a breastplate strapped to his chest for these shots. POV shots were used extensively by Alfred Hitchcock for various narrative effects. In Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931), director Rouben Mamoulian uses a beginning point-of-view shot. The long running British sitcom Peep Show is filmed entirely in point-of-view shots. The film Friday the 13th often showed

493-507: The company decided to stop the production of Su-30MK2 multirole fighters to focus on producing the Su-35 and Su-57 stealth multirole fighter aircraft. The assembly line for all versions of the new Sukhoi Superjet 100 is located at the company's facilities. Together with Novosibirsk Aircraft Production Association (which focuses on component production), the company is expected to produce 70 Superjet airframes by 2012. KnAAPO also manufactures

522-666: The first-person narrative style of the Raymond Chandler novel upon which the film is based. POV footage has existed since the first cameras were mounted in early airplanes and cars, anywhere a film's creator intended to take viewers inside the action with the psychological purpose of giving viewers a feel of "What he or she is going through", he or she being a participant in the subject matter. Cameras were increasingly introduced into more difficult experiences. Dick Barrymore , an early action filmmaker akin to Warren Miller , experimented with film cameras and counter weights mounted to

551-759: The following 15 years. At the SITDEF-2021 arms show held in Peru, Alexander Mikheev , the General Director of product export of Rosoboronexport , stated that there was interest in the Su-75 in a number of South American countries. In July 2023, Dmitry Shugaev, director of Russia’s Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation , confirmed that Nigeria was interested in the design. The jet has also been pitched for export to Turkey , Saudi Arabia and United Arab Emirates . Russia has also expressed interest in India participating in

580-691: The initial design had been modified with changes to the fuselage sides, strakes and the air intakes to reduce radar signature. Mainly, the new design appears to have increased the lifting surface area of the airframe. The powerplant appears to be the Saturn izdeliye 30 engine which will also power the Su-57M variant. The izdeliye 30 is designed to be 30% lower specific weight than its AL-41F1 predecessor, and up to 18% more effective, with an estimated thrust of 107.9 kN (24,300 lbf) dry and 171.7 kN (38,600 lbf) in afterburner. Once in series production,

609-518: The killer's perspective, and the killer was not revealed until the end. Horror and thriller movies often use POV to make the audience see only what one character sees, to add suspense. The film The Silence of the Lambs (film) (1991) contains a large number of shots shown from Clarice Starling's ( Jodie Foster ) POV, in which other characters often look at and talk directly into the camera lens. The Plainclothesman , an early US television series, assumed

638-519: The lower nose section, shares features with a DSI design concept first introduced in the Boeing X-32 aircraft. A diverterless supersonic inlet (DSI) is mechanically simple; DSI can reduce cost compared to more intricate inlet designs such as the McDonnell Douglas F-15 or Sukhoi Su-27 . Instead of a conventional empennage , the Su-75 has a v-tail similar to that of Northrop YF-23 . Instead of

667-455: The occasion and offer sophisticated camera stabilization with video quality that is impressive for their small camera sensor size. In making 1927's Napoléon , director Abel Gance wrapped a camera and much of the lens in sponge padding so that it could be punched by other actors to portray the leading character's point of view during a fist fight, part of a larger snowball fight between schoolboys including young Napoleon . Gance wrote in

696-463: The player's eyes, as in a subjective shot in which the camera trades places with the screen player. He sees the event from the player's viewpoint, as if standing alongside him. Thus, the camera angle remains objective, since it is an unseen observer not involved in the action." Supporting narrative elements are required to indicate the shot to the viewer as a POV shot. These may include shot sequencing, sound effects , visual effects and acting. When

725-551: The same light to medium-weight category. Production is forecast to be 300 planes over 15 years. According to the chief executive of Rostec , Sergei Chemezov , the LTS Checkmate is expected to cost US $ 25–30 million each. Su-75 Checkmate development could be delayed due to international sanctions on Russia caused by the Russo-Ukrainian War , and Russia could not import semiconductors and high-tech machining equipment from

754-436: The shoulder of the character (third person), who remains visible on the screen. Sometimes a POV shot is "shared" ("dual" or "triple"), i.e. it represents the joint POV of two (or more) characters. Point-of-view , or simply p.o.v ., camera angles record the scene from a particular player's viewpoint. The point-of-view is an objective angle , but since it falls between the objective and subjective angle, it should be placed in

783-401: The subject's eyes would see. It is usually established by being positioned between a shot of a character looking at something, and a shot showing the character's reaction (see shot reverse shot ). The POV technique is one of the foundations of film editing . A POV shot need not be the strict point-of-view of an actual single character in a film. Sometimes the point-of-view shot is taken over

812-422: The technical scenario that the camera "defends itself as if it were Bonaparte himself. It is in the fortress and fights back. It clambers on the wall of snow and jumps down, as if it were human. A punch in the lens. Arms at the side of the camera as if the camera itself had arms. Camera K falls on the ground, struggles, gets up." In the scenario, "Camera K" refers to Gance's main photographer, Jules Kruger , who wore

841-449: The title character's POV. Enter the Void (2009) by Gaspar Noé is shot from the first-person viewpoint, although in an unusual way, since most of the movie involves an out-of-body experience . The action film Hardcore Henry (2015) consists entirely of POV shots, presenting events from the perspective of the title character, in the style of a first-person shooter video game. Nearly
