Su-34 fighter safely landed with a cockpit canopy that burst at an altitude of 10 km

The emergency resulted in a sharp pressure drop

Russian fourth-generation Su-34 multirole fighter with a burst cockpit canopy at an altitude of 10 km. The footage appeared on social networks.

The canopy (transparent part of the cockpit) of the combat aircraft burst at an altitude of 9,500 meters. As a result of the emergency, there was a sharp pressure drop in the fighter's cabin, which is dangerous for barotrauma.

At the same time, the crew was badly cut by fragments, but they did not panic. The pilot can be heard saying over the radio: "Depressurization! Disaster! Disaster!". Then the pilots began to gradually decrease altitude. The view was blocked by a curtain that had partially come off due to the accident, but the navigator simply removed it.
