The military increased the order to 124 at that point.
Only 32 million USD for 1 Su-34? This is really cheap. F-16 and Gripen are more expensive than Su-34.

There was a lot of speculation about all variants being rather potent in the EW area... and the whole idea of FLIR pods is that you can fit them to existing aircraft... so they should all be compatible.Would be cool to see an EW variant or one with a FLIR targeting pod.
32 now total. That means that the first order is completed. Now remain the second of 92 aircraftsViktor wrote:3 new Su-34 delivered to RuAF.
Russian Air Force received another batch of Su-34 bombers
Yes. Although I suspect we may see much more than 92 Su-34 by 2020 judging by production rate which will produce 16 Su-34 starting next year.George1 wrote:32 now total. That means that the first order is completed. Now remain the second of 92 aircraftsViktor wrote:3 new Su-34 delivered to RuAF.
