The Russian Aerospace Forces (VKS) have received a batch of new Su-57 fighters. Blogger and retired military pilot Fighterbomber spoke about the volume of deliveries.
The batch is unusually large, it is twice as large as usual. It is especially pleasing that these aircraft are entering service with a regular regiment.
The retired military pilot also revealed the secret of why the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) called the fighters from this updated.
UAC stated that the aircraft will be modernized. This will definitely affect the range of weapons that the aircraft will be able to use.
Fighterbomber also added that the volume of deliveries of combat aircraft to the military has increased significantly.
Probably twice as much. There have never been such volumes in the history of modern Russia. The main thing is that we have reserve capacities, they can be increased many times over. We just need to solve the issue of uninterrupted supply of components - and everything will be fine.
On Monday, February 9, Rostec sent a batch of new Su-57 fighters to the troops with an updated complex of weapons and onboard systems. Military analysts found out that the Su-57 for the first time received the 101KS-O module for protection against missiles.
