According to him, in this regard, foreign aircraft are forced to fly at extremely low altitudes.

Therefore, the F-16 and Mirage simply cannot approach the launch line of air-to-air missiles.

Chemezov emphasized that the Su-35S literally works wonders in skillful hands. Pilots also highly appreciate the characteristics of the combat vehicle.

Prior to this, long-awaited footage appeared on the Web, confirming the equipping of the Su-35S with advanced R-74M missiles. Compared to its predecessor, the R-73, the maximum launch range of the R-74M has been increased to 40 km.
