Description
United Aircraft Corporation announced on 27 August that it had handed a new batch of Su-35S multirole fighters to the Russian Aerospace Forces. The manufacturer said the aircraft had completed a full cycle of factory testing at the Yuri Gagarin plant in Komsomolsk-on-Amur and had flown on to their home base, but disclosed neither the quantity nor the receiving unit or destination. Imagery released with the announcement shows at least two airframes, and AeroTime reported that a batch of two is UAC's usual practice. It is the third Su-35S handover announced in 2026, after those of 17 April and 26 May.
