The Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) have approximately 40 fifth-generation Su-57 fighters and about 200 previous-generation Su-34 fighters in service. This data is available to Military Watch Magazine (MWM).
Journalists noted that the Su-34 can be called the most important combat aircraft created in modern Russian history. It has only one rival — the Su-57.
The publication emphasized that the Su-34 has the longest flight range compared to similar aircraft.
The aircraft's high payload capacity allows it to carry not only a large number of bombs and missiles, but also particularly large-sized ammunition, including FAB-3000 gliding bombs and Kh-47M2 ballistic missiles.
A few days ago, it became known that the Russian Aerospace Forces had already received the fourth batch of new Su-34s in 2025. All aircraft have been tested at the manufacturing plant — the Chkalov Novosibirsk Aviation Plant.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Rostec revealed the features of the Malka howitzer after modernization.
