Is Sui an EVM chain?

Could you please clarify for me whether Sui qualifies as an EVM chain? I've been hearing a lot about Sui recently and am trying to understand its technical characteristics. Specifically, I'm interested in knowing if Sui utilizes the Ethereum Virtual Machine, or if it has its own unique architecture? Also, could you provide any insights into the potential advantages or disadvantages of Sui being an EVM chain, if it indeed is? I'd greatly appreciate any additional information you can provide on this matter.
