Due to sanctions, Russia can produce Su-34 fighters in small numbers. The loss of such an aircraft is serious.

This was announced by Air Force spokesman Yurii Ihnat, Censor.NET reports with reference to RBC-Ukraine.

"Production (of Su-34 aircraft - Ed.) takes a lot of time, especially under sanctions. They (the occupiers - Ed.) need imported components, unfortunately, they continue production," he said.

According to him, last year the Russians produced a batch of two or three Su-34s.

"Let's hope that we will destroy more than Russia is capable of producing," the spokesman added.

Ihnat said that the Su-34 is a modern aircraft from which Russians drop guided bombs and X-59 missiles.
