Before being sent to operational units, the aircraft underwent rigorous ground and flight tests to ensure they meet the high standards required for combat use.


“We are maintaining the necessary production pace to meet the state defense order,” said a UAC spokesperson. “Additionally, we are implementing new technologies and refining processes in our manufacturing facilities to increase production capacity,” he added.

The Su-34 is widely regarded as one of the most advanced aircraft in the Russian Aerospace Forces. Designed to perform a variety of missions, including the destruction of land and naval targets, reconnaissance operations, and suppression of enemy air defenses, the fighter-bomber is a key asset in Russia’s modern combat operations.


In the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Su-34 has played a crucial role, especially due to its combination of precision attack capabilities and advanced avionics systems. With the ability to carry a wide range of weapons and operate over long distances, the Su-34 excels both in high-intensity air combat and deep strikes against strategic enemy targets.

With this new reinforcement, Russian forces are further enhancing their operational capabilities in various warfare scenarios.
