The Sukhoi-35BM is intended on the base of the engineering solutions applied for creation of the fifth-generation aircraft taking under consideration the experience of operation of the Su-30MK2 (Su-27SM) multipurpose aircraft family. The Su-35 combines each characteristics necessary for a modern fighter, such as: super-maneuverability, sophisticated active and passive sensor systems, high supersonic flight speed, high flight range, possibility to rearrange aircraft interaction; and characteristics of a decent combat aircraft, namely: high combat load, wide range of the "air-to-surface" missiles, sophisticated multichannel electronic warfare system, reduced radar observability, air-defense break capability at a low level flight.
The Su-35BM (Bolshaya Modernizatsiya - big Modernization), undertook alterations in its fuselage, weight, RCS, embarked avionics, radar and bombs. The Su-35 aircraft created by "Sukhoi design Bureau", however its production is mastered at the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association named after Gagarin. The aircraft is a 4++ generation aircraft using technologies of the fifth generation. Sukhoi claims they create it superior to any other 4th generation fighters currently below development worldwide.
