Russian Air Force today received three Su-34 aircrafts in a ceremony held at the Novosibirsk branch of the Sukhoi Company.
The first aircraft of the 2013 State Defense Order was transferred to the Russian military at the beginning of May this year and is already in service.
Implementation of the 2013 State Defense Order at the Novosibirsk aircraft plant is in full swing. The company's management noted a high degree of readiness of aircraft, which is the guarantee of a full and timely implementation of the 2013 State Defense Order.
The large government contracts signed with the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation in 2008 and 2010 for the supply of Su-34 have created the conditions for a stable work load of the plant in the long run, and determined its long-term development prospects.
The Su-34 aircraft produced by the NAZ have been successfully operated in the armed forces demonstrating high performance, according to the military.
