The Su-35 was developed at the initiative of the company "Sukhoi" (first flight took place in February 2008) on its own and borrowed funds without the participation of the Ministry of Defense, the plane made an aircraft factory in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. In 2009 he was awarded a contract to supply the Air Force 48 fighters of this type in the amount of 66 billion rubles., But since the cost of production of the aircraft increased. By the end of 2015, the Air Force should be placed last of the Su-35 under this contract, and at the same time, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu ordered to complete by the end of the year the state tests of the new machine.

One of the first customers was to become Libya, and negotiations with it entered the advanced stage, but after the intervention of the Western coalition and the overthrow of the regime of Muammar Gaddafi the issue was dropped.Now in the final stages are pre-contract negotiations for the supply of 24 Su-35 for the Air Force of People's Liberation Army of China, said a person close to the leadership of the military-technical cooperation of Russia. In addition, the marketing machine is conducted in Indonesia and several other Asian countries.
