Despite receiving payment: the Russian Federation has not yet sent Iran promised Su -35 - media

As it turned out, the last few weeks in Iran have expected the "inevitable supply" of the Su-35. Therefore, Wahaya replied directly that they should not expect them. According to him, high -ranking officials have made a decision on aircraft - they are really needed, but "we do not know when they are added to our squadron. " The material explains that Iran is trying to update the air forces consisting of old American aircraft. To this end, they turned to Russia-they wanted to buy 50 Su-35 fighters.

In addition to the fighter payment, the Russian authorities wanted drones-Kamikadze-and she began to receive them from the fall of 2022. Almost a year has passed, and no SU-35 has appeared in Iran, the author indicates. The publication also tried to explain the details of the relationship between Iran and Russia. It is stated that Russia needed Iran's help at a certain stage of the war with Ukraine. And she received this help. In this case, Iran seems to be simply used, without replacing.

One of the possible reasons - the alleged cooperation of the Russian Federation with Israel, is said in the article of the Iranian edition. It is believed that Russian government officials are so closely in contact with Israeli leaders that they do not fulfill the obligations taken to Iran for this sake. It should be emphasized that Iran, since the 1990s, has supported Hosbolla and Hamas terrorists who regularly attack Israel.

In addition, in 2018, a brief 5-thousand-hour fight between the two countries took place when they exchanged air strikes. Now Iran continues to increase its military capacity, threatening the neighboring country with war. In turn, from time to time, Iranian strikes that damage its military-industrial complex. Meanwhile, Iran, in contact with the Russian Federation, lost three times: he has no Su-35, spent money, lost the remnants of reputation because he is accused of selling drones-Kamikadze.

Su-35 is a multi-purpose fighter that has begun to be released in the Russian Federation since 2008. The aircraft is capable of accelerating to a speed of 2500 km/h and can run 12 missiles of various types, as well as armed with aircraft gun. As of 2023, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation had 99 fighters. At the same time, during the war with Ukraine, it lost four planes of this type - according to Oryx.

In one case, the Su-35 lost a duel from the MiG-29, in the other-the Su-35 rocket was hit by it. The network can find the estimated cost of the Su-35 fighter-it costs from $ 98 to $ 102 million. If Iran planned to buy 50 aircraft, he paid Russia $ 5 billion. And for a year he has not been able to get the goods for which he paid. We remind you that Iranian freight planes are landing in Russian airports every 2-3 weeks.
