This Su-57 aerobatic video. there is one at around 6 minute 30 second. not sure this real or AI. seem newest one. i dont think Su-35 has managed to do it such small space. showing the engine power difference.

UAC has delivered another batch of Su-34s to the Russian Aerospace Forces as part of fulfilling the State Defense Order

“The multifunctional Su-34 bomber has long become a legend. This aircraft combines high maneuverability, a wide range of armaments, and the ability to operate effectively in any conditions. During its deployment in the special military operation zone, it confirmed its status as the best in its class and remains one of the key elements of Russia’s combat aviation. We understand the high demand for this aircraft in the troops. Our aviation factories are maintaining the pace of Su-34 production and regularly deliver new aircraft to the customer, strengthening the country’s defense capability. New deliveries are planned by the end of the year,” said Rostec.

The fighter-bombers have undergone the necessary comprehensive ground and flight factory tests and have been handed over to the customer.

“As part of implementing the targeted tasks set by the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation for the delivery of highly demanded weapons and equipment to the troops, the Aerospace Forces crew accepted the Su-34 aircraft. The distinctive feature of this aircraft is that we can perform combat missions across the entire speed range. This aircraft has proven itself excellently in the special military operation. We can use both guided and unguided aviation strike weapons,” noted a Su-34 pilot of the Russian Aerospace Forces.

The Su-34 fighter-bomber is designed to strike ground (surface) and aerial targets, infrastructure objects protected by air defense systems, and located at significant distances from the base airfield. The aircraft can also be used for aerial reconnaissance tasks.

“UAC enterprises maintain a high pace of combat equipment production, fulfilling their obligations to the Russian Aerospace Forces. This is not the last delivery this year. Our employees at the factories constantly improve production processes to ensure the necessary volumes of aircraft manufacturing for the tasks of the Russian Ministry of Defense,” said UAC General Director Vadim Badeha.

So maybe 20 Su-34 delivered this year. I wouldn't be surprised if this was some sort of production record for the Russian Federation.

At this rate UAC will deliver two squadrons of Su-34 and two squadrons of Su-35 this year alone.

First serial Su-70 frame being assembled.

I've read a statement iirc from some official that this year they are supposed to deliver 50% more planes than last year, which is also supposed to be the largest number of aircraft delivered yearly since the Cold War. According to the well know tables circulating the peak to now has been around 100 planes in the 2010s (have to look it up again). So does it mean they will deliver over 100 planes this year?! I would love to see a breakdown and also clarification if it refers to just combat types or also includes trainers, transports etc.
PS: the well known table.
