SU-75 is a joke for stealth and likely will be only limited production, since are roughly comparable to F-16s

“On May 18, 2022, Sergei Chemezov, CEO of Rostec Corp. (which includes United Aircraft Corp. and Sukhoi), reported to Putin that the first flight-test aircraft would be completed at the turn of 2023-24, and series production would begin in 2027.
“A month later, on June 17, Yuri Borisov, then-Russian deputy prime minister and responsible for the defense industry, said the first flight of the Su-75 was scheduled for 2025. That August, during the Army 2022 exhibition, Minister of Industry and Trade Denis Manturov gave the date 2024 for the start of Su-75 trials.”

Other than the VKS, there are no customers interesting in another fighter-bomber - especially not since the VKS had been failing in the Ukraine invasion. SU-57 Felons are never in Ukraine airspace due to their susceptibility of anti-air measures. No one imagines the 75 would fair any better.
Russian weapons sales have collapsed.

It’s a light tactical aircraft designed for export.
The stealth is more show than go.

Can’t be 6th gen when they never even built a 5th gen.
The Su-57 was detected in Syria. That’s why its combat debut was so short there. And they don’t use them in Ukraine since S-300s can even detect and kill them

The main production run is expected in 2026-2027, so the lead time is about the same as a Toyota Camry last time I looked. :-)

Looks like a Russian foray into arms export market. May sell in small nations needing a more modern complement of fighter bombers who cannot afford f35s or f22s....IMHO....

Love that movie. Wish they would have done “Firefox Down”. Read all of Craig Thomas’ books back in those days. Excellent reads.
