The Sukhoi Su-35S Flanker E is a highly modified and improved derivative of the Su-27. In the 1980s modifications were made to the Su-27 (Su-27M) also referred to as Su-35. About 20 years later a heavily modified member of the Flanker family was produced and given the title of Su-35S Flanker E.

This probably will be the last of the Flanker family when the fifth generation Russian aircraft arrive. Primary Role: Multi-Role Fighter, Air Superiority Fighter.
