Work of Su-34 in Syria will lead to contracts on it

Successful application in Syria Su-34 will surely cause interest to this car in foreign military of departments. Probably, those countries which traditionally maintain the western equipment will want to buy them even, Roman Katkov writes.

For the first time Su-34 was shown 20 years ago in Le Bourget. Already then to it showed interest a number of the states, however to buy did not risk: the plane only started tests, and it was not clear, whether «will lick it into shape» in the conditions of disorder of the Russian industry.

«Now all children’s diseases of "tridtsatchetverka" изжиты, the bomber is successfully maintained in armies. Critics of this complex like to argue that in the advanced countries refused specialized cars and now buy only multipurpose planes. But, the matter is that Su-34 such also is, – writes Skating rinks. – He can successfully fight as with air, and the land purposes, using of the most modern high-precision weapon. Only, unlike foreign cars, the crew of the Russian plane is in a tselnosvarny armor titanic capsule that essentially increases chances to survive in fight».

To Syria the plane had experience of fighting application in 2008 in Georgia.

In one of the message of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation it was noted: «Russian Su-34 struck dot blows to the purposes from height more than 5 000 meters. The onboard aim navigation equipment of these planes allows to provide hit on any land objects with absolute accuracy».

According to Katkov, representatives of the foreign Air Force that will lead to contracts on sale of these planes will surely become interested in a multipurpose fighting complex.
