The Russian Ministry of Defense said on Tuesday that its air force has received a new batch of fourth-generation Sukhoi Su-34 bombers.
While the Russian Ministry of Defense did not say how many planes were delivered, it did say that it was slated to get a total of 16 in 2017.
The Su-34, dubbed "Fullback" by NATO, is one of Russia's most capable aircraft — able to engage targets on the ground and in the air — and has been used extensively in Syria.

The Su-34 Fullback, which made its maiden flight in 1990, was built to replace the Su-24.

It was also modeled off the Su-27 Flanker, as were the Su-30, Su-33, and Su-35.
