The Russian Su-35S multirole fighter of the fourth generation has demonstrated superiority over the American F-16 and French Mirage. This was announced by the head of the Rostec State Corporation, Sergey Chemezov.
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.
