Lords of the Blue Heights: Rostec Handed Over a Batch of Su-57 and Su-35S Fighters to the Army

The next batch has already entered production

The United Aircraft Corporation (part of Rostec) has sent new Su-57 and Su-35S fighters to the Russian Aerospace Forces. The vehicles have passed a full cycle of factory tests, were accepted by the technical staff, and tested in various operating modes by pilots of the Ministry of Defense.

Rostec noted that the number of fifth-generation fighters entering the troops is increasing every year. The next batches of aircraft are already in production. The vehicles are in varying degrees of readiness.

To expand the serial production of the Su-57, the construction of an additional building has begun, where the systems of 5th generation aircraft will be tested. Construction and installation work has also been completed on new facilities at the flight test station.

Earlier www1.ru reported that the tests of the newest 9M134 light missile for the ATGM are being completed in Russia. It is intended to destroy medium-armored targets, including those equipped with dynamic protection, and it is four times lighter than the missiles of the Kornet family.
