Or for how much.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The claim was made by Alexander Mikheev, the arms exporter&rsquo;s chief executive, in the run-up to the El Alamein airshow in Egypt, where Russia is flying the Su-57E and unveiling two new weapons for it. It is a sales pitch delivered on a sales floor, and it deserves to be read as one.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f5f5f5;padding:20px 24px;margin:24px 0;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 10px;font-weight:700;font-size:17px;color:#0d1117\">Quick Facts<\/p><table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:15px;line-height:1.6\"><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>The claim<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">New Su-57E export contracts signed, deliveries starting 2026<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Who said it<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">Alexander Mikheev, CEO of Rosoboronexport<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Buyers named<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">None<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Contract values<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">Not disclosed<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>At El Alamein<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">Su-57E flying and static display, 8&ndash;10 September<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>New weapons debuting<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">S-71M, described as a warhead delivery platform, and S-71K, an aerial bomb<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Advertised weapons fit<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">RVV-MD2 and RVV-BD air-to-air; Kh-38MLE, Kh-69 and Kh-58UShKE air-to-surface<\/td><\/tr><tr><td style=\"padding:5px 14px 5px 0;color:#555;vertical-align:top;white-space:nowrap\"><strong>Confirmed export customer<\/strong><\/td><td style=\"padding:5px 0;color:#222\">Algeria, per reporting of imagery near Oum El Bouaghi in February 2026<\/td><\/tr><\/table><\/div>\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">One customer that is real<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Mikheev&rsquo;s unnamed contracts are unverifiable, but the Su-57 does have at least one genuine foreign operator. Algeria is reported to have received a first batch, with video near Oum El Bouaghi air base in February 2026 cited as confirmation. Algiers has also taken ex-Egyptian Su-35s, built for Cairo before American sanctions pressure collapsed that deal, apparently as a stopgap.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>So the export programme is not fictional. What is unclear is whether anything new has been signed, or whether Mikheev is describing the Algerian deal in the present tense for an audience of prospective buyers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"background:#f8f9fa;border-left:4px solid #d32f2f;padding:20px 22px;margin:18px 0 24px;font-size:16px;line-height:1.7;display:flex;gap:20px;align-items:flex-start\"><div><em>&ldquo;[Egypt is Russia&rsquo;s] most important strategic partner.

That caution has reasons.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>In June 2024, Ukraine&rsquo;s military intelligence said it had struck a Su-57 on the ground at Akhtubinsk in Astrakhan region, roughly 590 kilometres from the front line, using one-way attack drones. It released before-and-after satellite imagery showing the aircraft intact one day and scorched the next. The Russian military blogger Fighterbomber confirmed the strike had happened. The Royal United Services Institute assessed at the time that even the temporary loss of a single airframe amounted to around five percent of the operational fleet, because so few exist.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" style=\"margin:0 0 24px;width:100%\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" width=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/09\/sukhoi-s-70-okhotnik-stealth-combat-drone.png\" alt=\"The Sukhoi S-70 Okhotnik stealth combat drone during takeoff\" style=\"width:100%;height:auto;max-width:100%;display:block\"><figcaption style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;text-align:center;margin-top:6px;font-style:italic\">The S-70 Okhotnik, designed to fly as a loyal wingman alongside the Su-57. In October 2024 a Su-57 appears to have shot one down. Photo: Wikimedia Commons \/ CC BY 4.0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<p>Four months later, video circulating on Russian and Ukrainian channels appeared to show a Su-57 shooting down Russia&rsquo;s own S-70 Okhotnik stealth drone near Kostiantynivka in Donetsk region. Russian channels attributed it to a malfunction: the drone reportedly lost contact with its ground operator and drifted toward Ukrainian-held territory, and the accompanying Su-57 destroyed it to stop the wreckage falling into Ukrainian hands. It fell anyway, and Ukrainian forces recovered it. Russia&rsquo;s Defence Ministry never formally addressed the episode.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">What the leaked paperwork suggests<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>There is a second problem underneath the combat record, and it goes to what a buyer actually receives.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Analysis of leaked classified documents, reported by National Security Journal, indicates Su-57s have been delivered to the Russian air force in incomplete form, with Western sanctions disrupting the supply of microchips and forcing acceptance of aircraft missing elements of the electro-optical targeting system. Independent analysts have separately questioned how stealthy the aircraft really is, pointing to exposed engine nozzles and rear-aspect shaping that look closer to a fourth-generation signature than a fifth. Production is small, on the order of a couple of dozen airframes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>None of that is settled fact, and all of it comes from sources with an interest in the answer. But it is the context in which an unnamed buyer is being asked to sign.<\/p>\r\n\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\/TpwWDacPNIE\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\r\n<p style=\"font-size:14px;color:#777;text-align:center;font-style:italic;margin-top:-8px\">El Alamein 2026, where the Su-57E is flying a display this week alongside American and Chinese aircraft.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Why Egypt, and why now<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Egypt is the obvious room in which to make this pitch. It has bought from Moscow for decades, it is not bound by exclusivity to Washington, and it has already been burned once: the Su-35s it ordered ended up in Algeria after American sanctions pressure.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Russia is also competing directly this week. Boeing handed Egypt its <a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/afterburner\/egypt-first-ch-47f-chinook-delivery-el-alamein-2026\/\">first five CH-47F Chinooks<\/a> on the same show floor, the US flew in F-15Es, F-16s and A-10s, and China brought fighters, tankers and radar aircraft. Announcing signed contracts you decline to describe is a reasonable way to look busy in that company.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The Su-57E will fly its display, the S-71M and S-71K will be shown, and the question of who is buying will remain exactly where Rosoboronexport left it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<style>.mfq{margin:34px 0 8px}.mfq h2{font:26px\/1.3 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117;padding-top:22px;margin:0 0 6px}.mfq .qa details{border-top:1px solid #5C91FF;margin:0;padding:0}.mfq .qa details:last-of-type{border-bottom:1px solid #e2e7ee}.mfq .qa summary{cursor:pointer;list-style:none;display:flex;justify-content:space-between;align-items:center;gap:16px;padding:22px 26px;font:18px\/1.7 \"Gilroy semiBold\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#0d1117}.mfq .qa summary::-webkit-details-marker{display:none}.mfq .qa summary::after{content:\"+\";font:24px Helvetica,sans-serif;color:#3568e0;flex:0 0 auto}.mfq .qa details[open] summary::after{content:\"\\2013\"}.mfq .qa details:hover summary{color:#3568e0}.mfq .qa .a{font:16px\/1.7 \"Gilroy regular\",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;color:#454e5e;padding:0 26px 24px}.mfq .qa .a a{color:#3568e0}@media(max-width:680px){.mfq .qa summary{padding:18px 14px;font-size:17px}.mfq .qa .a{padding:0 14px 20px}}<\/style>\r\n\r\n\r\n<section class=\"mfq\"><h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2><div class=\"qa\"><details open><summary>Has anyone actually bought the Su-57?<\/summary><div class=\"a\">Algeria is the one export customer supported by outside evidence, with imagery near Oum El Bouaghi air base in February 2026 cited as confirmation that a first batch had arrived.
