Russia: the military aviation will receive five Sukhoi Su-34 fighter-bombers

The Novosibirsk Valeri Chkálov aviation industry will deliver to the Russia Air Force five Su-34 Platypus fighter-bombers, said vice-general manager Alexandr Kaláshnikov.

The Air Force's spokesman, colonel Alexandr Drobishevki, has already announced the development project of the military fleet: 70 Sukhoi Su-34 aircraft within 2015.

The Su-34 Platypus (NATO codename "Fullback") is an advanced Russian 2-seat fighter-bomber and strike aircraft. It is intended to replace the Sukhoi Su-24, and it is comparable to the F-15E Eagle, both developed from an excellent interceptor.
