This impressive A-400M served as support aircraft for the Turkish Stars that attended Army 2017 as the sole non-Russian demoteam.

This is what you call a real helo !! When taking off, it is even more impressive.............

During Army 2017, the pilot of this An-148 invited us in. With its full digital cockpit, the 148 can be compared to modern Western airliners. But seeing it, I still can't help to see it as a Regional Jet on which BAe forgot to attach two of its four engines ;-)

This mighty Bear carries the name "Kaluga" on its forward fuselage

Nice to see as many as four An-30s at the same time!

The 968th Instructor-Research Aviation Regiment at Lipetsk is operating the superb Su-35S in a full grey/ light blue colour scheme (as shown) as well as the same type of aircraft in a two-tone air defence blue colour scheme.

A somewhat enthusiastic landing of one of the most modern fighter aircraft of the Russian Federation - Aerospace Forces (RF VKS). The Su-35S belongs to the 968th Instructor-Research Aviation Regiment at Lipetsk and participated in the airshow of Kubinka - Army 2017.

The Russian Federation - Naval Aviation (AVMF-RF) is flying the Su-30SM, a twin-engine, two-seat supermaneuverable fighter aircraft developed by Russia's Sukhoi Aviation Corporation. It is a multirole fighter for all-weather, air-to-air and air-to-surface deep interdiction missions. The Su-30SM is equipped with canards, thrust-vectoring, and a long-range phased-array radar and is a scary adversary for western aircraft. This 48 blue belongs to the 43rd Independent Naval Assault Aviation Regiment at Saki (the Crimea).
