At the critical moment when the Ukrainian Air Force received F-16 fighters, the words of the president of the Russian United Aircraft Building Corporation, Yuri Slyusari, undoubtedly demonstrated to the world Russia's determination to strengthen the construction of fighter forces. Recently, the United Aircraft Building Corporation successfully delivered the last batch of Su-57 fighters in the 2023 production plan at the Gagarin Aircraft Factory in Komsomolsk-on-Amur, a milestone moment that not only reflects the strength of the Russian aviation industry, but also demonstrates the great importance that the country attaches to the air force. 
Commenting on the increase in orders for Su-57 fighters, Slyusari said: "This increase is not accidental, but is based on full confidence in the quality and performance of the products. He further explained that the Su-57, as a representative of Russia's fifth-generation fighter, its excellent performance and advanced technology are the key to winning this trust. From a technical point of view, the Su-57 fighter is designed to incorporate a number of innovative technologies, such as capability, supersonic cruise and excellent maneuverability. Its maximum take-off weight reaches 35,000 kg, its combat radius is 1,200 kilometers, its maximum speed is between 2,140-2,600 kilometers per hour, and its maximum combat load can reach 6 tons. This series of data is enough to prove its strength as a high-end fighter. 
Slyusari's pride is not unfounded. When asked about the exact number of productions, he did not disclose specific figures, but it can be inferred that at the moment the total number of Su-57 fighters of the entire Russian Aerospace Forces should be around 20 units. Although this figure is still a certain gap compared to the fifth-generation aircraft of Western countries, for Russia it is a huge improvement. In response to the rapid increase in orders, UAC has taken a number of measures to optimize its production processes. By solving bottlenecks in the manufacturing process, optimizing the management of the ** chain and strengthening the production capacity of the factory, the Su-57 production line can be operated efficiently. In addition, the Ministry of Industry and ** of Russia also issued a relevant statement, confirming that the assembly of the fifth-generation Su-57 fighter in the ** workshop is in full swing. The aircraft will be delivered to the Russian Aerospace Forces in 2024. 
Looking back, Russia originally planned to install Su-57 fighter jets in 2019, but an unfortunate accident caused this plan to be postponed. At that time, the first mass-produced Su-57 crashed during a test flight, and a year's efforts were in vain. However, setbacks did not break Russia's resolve. By 2022, the Russian army has successfully installed 6 Su-57s. According to the new plan, the Russian army plans to receive 22 by the end of 2024 and 76 by 2028. UAC didn't stop there. To meet the needs of production, the Yuri Gagarin Aviation Plant has created a new test base for the expanded production of the Su-57. However, the current Su-57 does not reach the full-state version, and the production and performance do not meet the needs of the Russian Aerospace Forces. Its stealth performance and carrying ability have also been questioned somewhat. 
However, the challenges have not stopped Russia from moving forward. On October 21 of this year, the improved Su-57 (or Su-57M) completed its first flight. The new fighter jet features on-board equipment with extended capabilities and artificial intelligence, a new radar, and more. What's more, it will be equipped with the new "Product 30" engine, which will give the Su-57 the ability to cruise at supersonic speeds without afterburner. For Russia, the Su-57 not only represents the pinnacle technology of its aviation industry, but also an important support for its military power. With the continuous advancement of technology and the continuous expansion of production, the Russian Aerospace Forces will have more and more advanced fighters to defend the airspace in the future and we are convinced that the future Su-57 will contribute more to Russia's national defense with its excellent performance.
