Modern Su-35S Multirole air superiority fighter enters service with Russian Air Forces. Su-35S is a designation of production Su-35BM version for the Russian Air Force. The aircraft is capable of mid-air refueling and has a long-range navigation system. Su-35S can attack targets on the ground and at sea without entering the air defence zone and is resistant to jamming. The Sukhoi Su-35 (NATO reporting name: Flanker-E) is a designation for two separate, heavily upgraded derivatives of the Su-27 aircraft. They are single-seat, twin-engine, supermaneuverable multirole fighters, designed by Sukhoi and built by Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association (KnAAPO). The Russian Air Force has ordered 98 production units, designated Su-35S, of the newly revamped Su-35.[8] Both Su-35 models were marketed to many countries, including Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, and South Korea; only China has so far ordered the Su-35, placing an order for 24 in late 2015. Indonesia expressed an intent to buy between 8-10 Su-35s in 2015, but has yet to sign a final purchase contract.
