HISTORY ASPECTS: The Su-30SM, a highly versatile multirole fighter developed by Sukhoi, is a twin-seat derivative of the Su-30 family optimized for the Russian Aerospace Forces. "Red 57" (RF-61768) represents one of the prominent aircraft deployed with the Russian Air Force in 2018. Equipped with thrust-vectoring engines, an advanced Bars-R radar, and a broad suite of precision-guided weaponry, the Su-30SM is designed to perform both air superiority and strike missions across a variety of combat environments. Its two-seat configuration enhances its adaptability for long-range missions and complex strike operations. By 2018, Su-30SM fighters like Red 57 were actively involved in Russia’s military operations in Syria. From bases such as Khmeimim Air Base, these aircraft provided air cover for Russian ground forces, escorted bombers, and conducted precision strikes against militant targets. Their superior maneuverability and electronic warfare capabilities made them ideal for contested airspace. The Su-30SM also played a key deterrence role by intercepting NATO aircraft operating near Russian airspace over the Baltic and Black Seas, displaying Moscow’s renewed airpower reach. Red 57 continued to serve in joint military exercises and readiness patrols, reinforcing Russia’s military posture both domestically and abroad. The aircraft has become a symbol of Russia's modernized air force, bridging the gap between legacy platforms and fifth-generation ambitions. Its proven combat service, adaptability to different missions, and successful export to allied nations like Belarus and Armenia further highlight its global relevance. This 1:72 scale model is a must-have for collectors of modern Russian military aircraft. With precise markings, detailed ordnance, and authentic camouflage, it captures the powerful form of one of Russia’s most capable fighters in service today.
