F/A-37 vs. Su-37 dogfight

I don't suggest that they have to be en par but I consider it silly that the US supposedly deployed a completely new kind of standard aircraft (not fancy stealth for primary strike missions against intact air defenses but some multirolefighter) and everyone else gets the same aircraft he's using or about to use now? A completely fictional jet and the Russians only some advanced type already in prototype stage. Give them something fancy as well, even if it proves inferior to the Talon. Something more fun.

Thing is at the beginning of the movie it states:
"To combat the mounting threat of terrorism, a new program has been created.
Armed with the most advanced and EXPERIMENTAL (caps mine) technolog, its prupose is to destroy the enemy wherever they operate in the world.
Over 400 pilots applied for the program.
3 were chosen. "

This suggests to me that the talons are not in general deployment - they are still in the experimental stage and are just being used as there is nothing available that can match their capabilities. I'm not suggesting that the russians did not have anything even close to the performance of the talons, but EDIUCAV and Talon 1 were over Russia and their stealth capability had been compromised by their own commander, however the only planes that the russians could field against these intruders were "standard" interceptors. It may be because their experimental craft (if they had any) were at some secret base many miles away and would not have been able to intercept in the time allowed.

well even though it's fictional, but from what we've seen, we can only say the talons are supermanuverable too. but we don't see too much of the difference in terms of technology other than avionics so far.

and as for dogfights like in the movie, the terminators couldve pulled of cobras and somersaults in response to what the talons did

People like to forget the little thing called the end of the Cold War. This was only possible because the Russian economy was collapsing which in turn with the settlement of the Cold War in a peaceful way meant the military industrial complex did not have first dips on the state budget to ensure the nation's survival.

Assuming Russia's economy isn't collapsing again I'd dare say the first one's knowing their military is in bad shape are the Russians and given all the stuff they are doing military wise is geared to make the Russian army a modernized, sleek, fast hitting combined arms force, give the Russian navy replacements for their nearly decaying materials and introduce new generations of nuclear weapons and aircraft to compete with the "threats" the West has introduced by forgoeing nuclear arms treaties and building new generation of jets while keeping Russia out of our club house.

This is a Russian centric summary of the situation so we are free to disagree on some or all of those points but imho these are driving points behind Russia's security concerns. Add to that that they know that they can't win a conventional war with the new star China and you have them having to completely overhaul their military system. I'd dare say a big chunk of their nukes will have a dual setting of either hitting NATO or China depending which neighbor caused the Russian president to push the panic button. That said I don't think war is likely in any case but military thinking is based on paranoia and that everyone wants to kill you and the Russians might have found too many events have proven that thinking to be the safest course of action.

"Russians have had a tendency to not put some other advanced planes into production yet like the Su-37 and Su-47" The 37 and 47 were test beds for future designs, IE the T-50, also know as the pak-fa.
