    SU-35 is a defence jet, not an assault one. It’s getting shot over Ukraine because it’s not used for its purpose. It’s like sending a heavy bomber into a dog fight.

      A defence jet? Jesus that is next level of delusion.

      Ohh, so it only wins fights it didn’t start? That explains why it keeps getting shot down.

      It’s supposed to be an air superiority aircraft not an interceptor. I think you’ve confused the two. Inceptors are defensive, air superiority are aggressive.

      Their role is to take control of new areas, in this role they’ve been taken out by Ukraine’s air defence. Which defends against aggressive aircraft.

        They still are not intended for invasion and air to ground attacks.
