A photo of a Russian Su-35S generation "4++" fighter with a powerful set of weapons has appeared online. The image was posted by military blogger and retired pilot Fighterbomber on his Telegram channel.
In the shot, the aircraft is carrying eight missiles of five different types simultaneously. The former military man drew attention to the dense suspension and called this configuration "beast mode" - a variant of maximum combat load.
It can be noted that among the weapons there is the latest R-77M medium-range guided missile of the air-to-air class.
It is gratifying that the R-77M has long been hung on our fighters as standard.
What does "Beast Mode" mean?
This is the informal name for a suspension configuration in which a combat aircraft carries the maximum possible amount of weaponry. This option is used to demonstrate the combat capabilities of the machine or when performing tasks where a universal strike load is important.
Earlier, Tekhnosfera Rossii, citing sources, reported that the Aerospace Forces in 2025 received from 14 to 20 Su-35S fighters.
