"Russian Deputy Defense Minister Yuri Borisov said the plane is so much better than everything out there that Russia doesn't need to build it."

The US only built 187 F-22s. It's a zero day platform. 200 is enough to fuck an entire continent. Heavy fighters don't get built in larger quantities generally.
As for it not working, the 4 sent to Syria say otherwise,
The VKS is 2025 will look like this
60 Su-57s
150 Su-35s
200 Su-30SMs
30ish Su-30MKs
70ish Su-27SMIIs and IIIs
48ish MiG-35s
24ish MiG-29Ks
56ish MiG-29SMs
160ish Su-34s and 34SMs.
60 Tu-22M5s
25ish Tu-160s
50ish Tu-95s.
3ish PAK-DAs
120ish Yak-130s
120ish Su-25s.

Since 2010 the VKS and VMF has inducted
71 Su-35s
116 Su-34s
110 Su-30SM
20 Su-30M2s
12 new build Su-27SM3s (Im not counting upgrades)
24 MiG-29K/KUBs
353 heavy class twin engined fighters. This is roughly 2x more than all the countries in Europe COMBINED.
They continue to induct about 40 per year. There is no resource constraint on the PAK-FA.
Russian jet procurement matches Chinese procurement on a nominal defense budget that is 1/3 the size. The Chicoms have a bloated manpower problem and not enough kit.

So they're largely flying 1980's platforms today with some updated avionics and better engines than existed then. If we were fielding tricked out F-15's and 16's and not the F-35, I'd be concerned. But as it stands, the F-35 is a generational leap for which they don't have an answer.
And probably still won't 5-7 years from now. For better or worse, PAK FA is their only hope. But it is increasingly clear that it's a long shot. Real long...
