| title = Su-35 multi-role fighter
| author = Sukhoi Company (Sukhoi Design Bureau). Just as the U.S. F-18 Super Hornet is really a new airplane compared to the visually similar F-18 Hornet, the Su-35 is no Su-27. Just as the Super Hornet will, at least for some missions, be superceded by the F-35C Lightning II variant of the Joint Strike Fighter, the Su-35 may be replaced by some fifth generation fighter.

Sukhoi is aggressively positioning the Su-35 for the export market.
