Su-57Fifth-generation multirole fighter aircraftSide: RussiaBuilt: United Aircraft Corporation / Sukhoi / RussiaThe Su-57, NATO reporting name Felon, is Russia's Sukhoi-designed fifth-generation multirole fighter, built for air-to-air combat and standoff strike missions with low-observable shaping, integrated avionics, and internal weapons carriage. In the Russia-Ukraine War it has appeared as a scarce Russian Aerospace Forces asset used cautiously, with documented Ukrainian reporting of a June 2024 strike against an Su-57 at Akhtubinsk airfield rather than routine overflight of defended Ukrainian airspace._in_flight.jpg?width=480)
Tu-95Strategic turboprop bomber and cruise-missile carrierSide: RussiaBuilt: Tupolev / Soviet Union / RussiaThe Tu-95 Bear is a Soviet-designed, four-engine turboprop strategic bomber that remains in Russian long-range aviation as a cruise-missile carrier. In the Russia-Ukraine War, the Tu-95MS variant is documented as one of the launch platforms for Kh-101 land-attack cruise missiles fired from standoff range against targets in Ukraine.
Sukhoi Su-30Twin-engine multirole fighter aircraftSide: RussiaBuilt: United Aircraft Corporation / Sukhoi / Irkut Corporation / RussiaThe Sukhoi Su-30 is a two-seat, twin-engine multirole fighter developed from the Su-27 family and fielded in several Russian and export variants. In the Russia-Ukraine War, Russian Su-30SM aircraft have been used around the Black Sea for combat aviation missions, where Ukrainian forces have documented high-profile losses including a 2025 naval-drone missile engagement near Novorossiysk.
Su-34Twin-seat fighter-bomber / strike aircraftSide: RussiaBuilt: Sukhoi; Novosibirsk Aircraft Production Association / RussiaThe Su-34 Fullback is a Russian twin-seat fighter-bomber derived from the Su-27 family and built for long-range strike, interdiction, and reconnaissance missions. In the Russia-Ukraine War, Russian forces have relied on Su-34s as key launch aircraft for stand-off glide bombs, allowing heavy ordnance delivery while trying to remain outside many Ukrainian short-range air-defense envelopes.
