Tupolev Tu-95MS strategic missile-carrying bombers and Sukhoi Su-35S fighters held joint drills in the skies over the Tver Region, the press office of Russia’s Western Military District reported on Tuesday. This reported by TASS.

"A formation of Su-35S fighters of operational-tactical aviation from the Western Military District’s Air Force and Air Defense Army took off from the Khotilovo aerodrome on command to escort Tu-95MS turboprop strategic missile-carrying bombers that took off from an airbase of the Aerospace Force in the Saratov Region," the press office said in a statement.

The crews of Su-35S fighters practiced complex formation flying jointly with the Tu-95MS strategic bombers and held a training dogfight, following which they returned to their home airfield, the statement says.

  Light combat Yak-130M
  The presentation of the Ya-130M aircraft took place at the international military-technical forum "Army-2024", which was held from August 12 to 14, 2024 at the Patriot Convention and Exhibition Center. It should be noted right away that this is not just the modernization of the Yak-130 aircraft, but the transformation of a combat training aircraft into a full-fledged light combat aircraft. In the information field, this event was marked by a number of brief reports from federal news agencies. But the project, like the Yak-130 aircraft with its unique flight characteristics, deserves a more detailed review, which we decided to do.
