Commander of the Air Force Chaiko: the first Su-57 will enter the Air Force in 2022

The troops of the Eastern Military District (VVO) will receive the first fifth-generation Su-57 fighters in 2022. The timing of the aircraft arrival was announced by the commander of the Air Defense Forces, Colonel-General Alexander Chaiko, during the final board of the Ministry of Defense of Russia. This is reported by RIA Novosti .

"The re-equipment of the district's troops will continue next year. In particular, it is planned to receive a modernized brigade set of the Iskander operational-tactical missile system, Tornado-S multiple launch rocket systems, Mi-28NM attack helicopters and the first units of the newest Su-57 fighters," the head of the Air Defense Ministry said.

He noted that in 2021, the Air Defense forces received more than 800 units of modern weapons. Bastion coastal missile systems, upgraded T-80BVM tanks and BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicles were handed over to the military. According to Colonel-General Chaiko, the share of modern models of equipment in the Air Defense forces is 56 percent.

Earlier, 19FortyFive noted that the Su-57's capabilities will expand the use of the S-70 Hunter drone. The unobtrusive device can be controlled from the cockpit of the aircraft.

In November, a source in the military-industrial complex reported on the planned deliveries of the Su-57. He noted that in December, the Russian Aerospace Forces may receive four fifth-generation aircraft.
