The Su-35S remains the mainstay of Russia&rsquo;s air-superiority fleet. Photo: Wikimedia Commons<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Why the Su-35S still matters to Moscow<\/h2>\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Su-35S is Russia&rsquo;s most capable serial-built air-superiority fighter until the stealthy Su-57 arrives in numbers. Single-seat and twin-engine, with thrust-vectoring nozzles that give it its trademark airshow agility, it carries a powerful radar and long-range missiles and has been worked hard over Ukraine in escort, patrol and stand-off strike roles.<\/p>\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is the subtext of a low-key delivery notice: sanctions were meant to choke this line, and Komsomolsk-on-Amur is still rolling Flankers off the ramp. Whether it is two jets or a dozen a year, the message Moscow wants read is continuity.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/eN3gjK5rxDM\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;border-radius:8px\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>UAC footage of an earlier Su-35S handover; the manufacturer releases similar video for each batch rather than the specific August 2026 delivery.<\/em><\/p>\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Sources: United Aircraft Corporation; Militarnyi; Defence Blog; AeroTime; Air Data News.<\/em><\/p>\n<!-- mfsh:bottom -->\n\n<button type=\"button\" class=\"mfsh-trigger mfsh-bottom\" data-mfsh-placement=\"bottom\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\"><svg><use href=\"#mfsh-i-share\"\/><\/svg>Share this story<\/button>\n\n<!-- \/mfsh:bottom -->\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f0f4ff;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF;padding:16px 20px;margin:32px 0 8px;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-weight:600;color:#333\">Related Posts<\/p><p style=\"margin:4px 0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/russia-su-35-kh-31pm-anti-radiation-ukraine-2026\/\">Russia Sends the Su-35 After Ukraine&rsquo;s Radars<\/a><\/p><p style=\"margin:4px 0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/russia-claims-su-35-downed-two-su-27s\/\">Russia Claims One Su-35 Downed Two Su-27s<\/a><\/p><\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Share this story Russia&rsquo;s aircraft industry has settled into a wartime rhythm, and on 27 August 2026 it produced another familiar bulletin.
