Rosoboronexport offered India to produce the Su-35 Flanker-E
In a bold new offer aimed at strengthening defense ties, Russia has proposed a production agreement with India to build the
Su-35 Flanker-E, one of its most advanced fighter jets. This comes as India’s Air Force gears up for the highly-anticipated bid for 114 Multi-Role Fighter Aircraft [MRFA], a significant investment in the nation’s air defense capabilities.
India’s need for cutting-edge technology and reliable defense manufacturing partnerships is evident, and the Su-35 might just be the game-changer they’re looking for. The offer, reported by Indian media outlets could give India a clear advantage, allowing the country to produce the Su-35 domestically along with its powerful AL-41F engines.
The Su-35, Russia’s multi-role fighter jet, is an engineering marvel, built on the legacy of the Su-27 Flanker family but heavily upgraded to meet the demands of modern warfare. With its highly advanced AL-41F1S engines, the Su-35 offers both supercruise capabilities and thrust vectoring, which make it exceptionally agile in combat, allowing it to maneuver out of difficult situations and gain the upper hand over potential adversaries.
Moreover, Russia has assured India that the existing supply chain for the Su-30MKI can be adapted with only minor investments to accommodate Su-35 production. This promise is particularly attractive to India, as it would allow for rapid scaling of domestic manufacturing, potentially enabling double-digit production rates of the Su-35 each year, thereby bolstering India’s fighter fleet with minimal delay.
