The improvement of the Yak-130 advanced training aircraft will help train more excellent pilots and send more outstanding flight talents to the Russian Aerospace Forces. As far as is known, the aircraft delivered this time are under a production contract signed at the 2020 "Army-2020" international military forum with a total cost of more than 100 billion rubles. Among them, Su-30SM2 fighters and Yak-130 advanced trainer aircraft signed contracts for the production of 21 and 25 aircraft, respectively.

The delivery has also sparked speculation about the future. Does the arrival of aircraft mean that the Russian Aerospace Forces will speed up the pace of upgrading and further enhance their combat strength?
There is no doubt that the delivery of the aircraft will inject new impetus into the modernization process of the Russian Aerospace Forces and help it occupy a more favorable position in the future international military competition. It is foreseeable that with the gradual entry into service of these new fighters and trainers, the combat capability of the Russian Aerospace Forces will be further enhanced, and its position in the international military arena will be more solid. This will undoubtedly have a far-reaching impact on the global military landscape, and will also trigger the attention and response of other countries.
How will the strength of the Russian Aerospace Forces usher in new developments with the addition of these new equipment?What impact did the delivered aircraft have on Russia's military strength?This will become a key issue in future international military competition. I believe that these questions will be answered more clearly over time.
Russia's Su-30 fighter, a branch of the Sukhoi Design Bureau, is derived from the Su-27 "Sideways" series and is a heavy interceptor that has undergone several design modifications. The Su-30 family includes different developments such as the Su-30MKK, Su-30MKI, Su-30M2 and Su-30SM SM2, which are produced by two competing aviation plants. These fighters differed in equipment and performance, meeting the needs of different countries and regions.
The upgraded version of the Su-30SM2 fighter adopts the same NO35 radar and AL-41F-S1 vector engine as the Su-35S fighter, and is designed to maximize the integration of Su-30 series and Su-35 series fighters to reduce operating costs and logistics maintenance expenses.
This allows the Su-30SM2 to have more powerful combat capabilities and will be equipped with new ****, such as the KH-59MK2** cruise missile and the Kab-250 gliding bomb, further increasing the effectiveness of its ground and air combat. In addition, the Yak-130 advanced trainer is also a multi-functional fighter, which can not only be used to train *** and fifth-generation fighter pilots, but also to perform light ground and air combat missions in favorable weather conditions.
The equipment of this advanced training aircraft is also very rich, and it can carry a variety of bombs such as 250 kg and 500 kg, providing more options for combat. To sum up, the continuous upgrading and development of the Su-30 fighter series and the Yak-130 advanced trainer aircraft have made them occupy an important position in the modern fighter market, which not only meets the defense needs of various countries, but also demonstrates Russia's strong strength in the field of aviation industry.
