The Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) have received a huge batch of the latest combat fighters. This was announced by a retired pilot and author of the Telegram channel Fighterbomber.
According to him, it is specifically about the order for 2026.
Some completely fantastic, in the best sense, batch in terms of quantity of the best bombers and fifth-generation fighters has been shipped to the customer.
The former military man refused to provide details of the delivery and expressed hope that this was not a one-time action.
I will not comment on anything, so as not to jinx it. The fighters will replenish the combat regiment. The first combat regiment on fifth-generation aircraft in Russia.
It should be noted that Fighterbomber calls the 4th generation Su-34 fighters the "best bomber" in its publications. The only fifth-generation fighter in service with the Russian Aerospace Forces is the Su-57. The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation or official departments have not yet made statements about new deliveries of fighters in 2026.
In January, the United Aircraft Corporation announced the fulfillment of record plans for the supply of military equipment under the state defense order in 2025.
