Yes, there are statments from other people that been inside the cockpit of Su-34. It was infact much more cramped that one would think.
There was a small micro owen to cook some dry food. Thats about it(the kitchen). all the rest was just racks upon racks with avionics boxes. No sign of any toilet, so eighter it was a portable toilet no doubt, if it ever was there in the first place.

To think the Su-34 would find weight and space for a real toilet with all the pluming pipes thats follow is total unrealistic.

How about a chemical toilet?
Those only weigh a couple of pounds, and don't have plumbing.

Two words: WAG bag.

Yeah, like i said, it was only i portable "sh*t bag".

And also there are no sleeping facility there eighter, you can lie down on the cabin floor but then u have to elevate your feet over the senter instrumentation panel(not recomended!), depends which height of course, i short person might fit there..

Anyway, its perfectly possible to sleep in those seats.
They even have Massasje patent incorperated in them, to work on sore backs, and spine.

Good grief that you guys don't even know what a passive electronically scanned array radar is speaks volumes. It's not passive as such, it just indicated that the array itself is not producing the EM waves. This is done by a TWT as is the case with any convetional radar. The transmissions are then channeled through the antenna and directed, in the case of a PESA this is done by phase shifting to direct the beam, unlike a mechanical radar where the antenna moves itself and is thus point the beam. AESA means that you get rid of the TWT. The waves are generated by the modules located on the array itself.

I'm not sure whom you address you post towards..?

I'm fully aware that Some of the Russian PESA radar are in fact electronc steered array(ESA) as well as mechanical steered.

However, i may have misinterturped some of the earlier questions about Russian radars.. my bad.

Don't waste your time. We have a new wave of idiocy here. Unless you call them out by name they'll just keep going.

What diference between Su-34 & Su-32FN ?

Su-34 capability.
