Unless you have another angle of the same video, for me it will be a fake. That's just against gravity and law physics !!

Looks more like an rc Model of the su-35 with the sound of the Su-35 taken from another video.

In my book, lightweight fighter should be Yak, medium fighter should be MiG and heavy one should be Su.

Russia to develop cruise missiles capable of striking targets at 1,000km range

The missiles will be developed before 2020

ZHUKOVSKY, July 20. /TASS/. Russia will develop a family of air-launched precision cruise missiles before 2020 that will be capable of striking targets at a distance of up to 1,000 kilometers, Tactical Missiles Corporation CEO Boris Obnosov said on Thursday.

"Work is under way on a new family of items with a range of 200km, 400km, 600km and 1,000km. That is why, work in this area is being carried out. I believe that before 2020 we’ll surely roll out this family of items [missiles]," Obnosov said at the MAKS-2017 airshow, responding to a question about whether Russia was developing the analog of the US JASSM high precision long-range cruise missile.

As the Tactical Missiles Corporation head said, one missile can’t engage all the targets. "In some cases, it is inefficient to cover a longer range," he said, explaining the need to develop a whole family of missiles.

The US JASSM high precision cruise missile is intended to strike well-protected stationary and relocatable targets in any weather conditions and at any time of the day from distances off the enemy’s air defenses’ reach. It has a radius of operation of 370 km (JASSM-ER has an operational radius of up to 1,000 km). The missile is capable of delivering 450kg warheads.

i saw this today

Algeria expressed the intention to acquire at least a Su-32 squadron, which is an export version of the Su-34 front-line bomber, and is intended to replace Su-24MK bombers.

Participants of the Algerian delegation were able to inspect the Su-34 and get information about its characteristics.

The problem is, Russian developers keep saying "they expressed interest" with 0 follow up years later. Most notorious is the India deals. While India will purchase right then and there with US, it takes them decades to deal with Russia, even for a screw. Same goes for "UAE shows interest".

I'm talking of hard numbers of actual sale contracts.
