Iran: Sukhoi-35 fighter jets will be received after the end of the war. Mohammad Akarmini, a spokesman for the Iranian military, said that Tehran had purchased Russian Sukhoi-35 fighter jets, and they were supposed to enter service before the war, but the delivery was delayed due to the conflict. Their entry into the service was determined before the war, but their acceptance will be after its end. He added that the contract and purchase procedures had previously been completed, while the Iranian Ministry of Defense had carried out pilot training and organizational arrangements, without disclosing the number of aircraft, the value of the deal or the date of delivery. The Iranian military confirmed in January 2025 the purchase of the Russian aircraft, while subsequent reports ranged from 16 to 48 aircraft without official confirmation from either side, and Moscow has yet to announce a new delivery schedule.
