The landing itself was successful, but opinions among experts on this matter were very divided - according to some [, the "early" release of brake parachutes was part of the show, while others believe that this is a technical problem. It is known that the flight was performed as part of a rehearsal of the show at the MAKS-2019 air show.

It should be clarified that no official comments on this matter were provided, but the non-standard landing itself raises questions, especially after a similar incident occurred with the Su-30SM fighter during an air show in Crimea, which, by the way, was also not commented on. neither the military nor the organizers of the show.
