Russian Su-35 Fighter Jet Sees Export Orders Soar

Su-35 Flanker-EThe Sukhoi Su-35 is set to follow in the wake of the Soviet Union's legendary Su-27 and Su-30 fighter jets in becoming a major military export.

Negotiations for the export of the Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jet are coming to fruition, with orders from buyers in South American and Asian countries expected to be agreed upon in the near future, sources close to talks on the export of the aircraft have told military correspondent Ilya Kramnik.

The Sukhoi Su-35 fighter is a single-seat twin-engine super-maneuverable multirole fighter, built by the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association in Russia's Far East and designed by Sukhoi, which has a contract to deliver 48 of the planes to the Russian Air Force before the end of 2015.

    Sales of the Russian SU-35 are soaring while the sales of F-35 have not yet got of the ground.

      For own safety and survivability, the F-35 should be compared with EVERY possible opponent, and not with a theoretically possible adversary only.
