Generation "4++" Su-35s fighters with their "long arm" during operations operate in combat tandem with the Su-34 and do not allow enemy aircraft to reach the lines of weapon use, the Rostec State Corporation reported.
The company clarified that the Su-35s and Su-34 operate together - the first acts as cover, and the second is the " ударный кулак "
Rostec added that the Su-35s is a super-maneuverable aircraft that protects the Su-34 from threats from above thanks to a phased array radar station.
The duet of these platforms forms an effective strike complex capable of performing the most complex tactical tasks at the front.
The radar allows you to detect and track numerous targets. The aircraft can suppress air defense facilities and conduct reconnaissance.
The Su-34 is designed to deliver strikes with high-precision bombs and missiles deep in the enemy's rear, where it penetrates thanks to cover from the Su-35s.
