Sukhoi Su-34 (32)

[CyrusThePlane101]

I believe the Su-34 would be a cool addition to the game, as it’s had its first flight since 1990 & was introduced on 2014 in the Russian Air Force. The Sukhoi Su-34 is a Soviet-origin Russian twin-engine, twin-seat, all-weather supersonic medium-range fighter-bomber/strike aircraft. It’s about to get modern upgrades to its weaponry and radar systems, and why not, I think these types fighter jets would fit pretty well in IF considering the huge amount of scenery we have available to us:)
