Russian Air Force augmented by two Su-35S jets

On Wednesday, May 8, it was announced that Russia’s Aerospace Forces [VKS] received their second shipment of Su-35S multirole fighters this year. This news came to light through an official statement from the United Aircraft Corporation [UAC]. Interestingly, a video released by the UAC showcased a pair of these fighters, with their numbers intentionally obscured.
These cutting-edge 4++ generation fighters completed a range of ground and flight tests under various modes before departing from the KnAAZ airport and heading to their primary base, the corporation highlighted.
On a reassuring note, the Director General of UAC, Yury Slyusar, declared that the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aviation Plant is meeting its production schedule as part of their 2024 program. Slyusar emphasized that the company is consistently fulfilling its commitments related to aircraft delivery, and is concurrently preparing new production batches of Su-35 and Su-57 fighters.
Taking a closer look at the Su-35S, one finds it brimming with advanced avionics. Its standout feature is undoubtedly the Irbis-E passive electronically scanned array radar system. This impressive tech can track multiple targets simultaneously over an astounding range of up to 400 km for aerial adversaries. Further enhancing its defense arsenal, the aircraft is equipped with the OLS-35 optical locator system, which offers key infrared search and track capabilities.
