Russian fighters Su-57 took part in airstrikes on the positions of terrorists.

The Lebanese edition of Al Masdar News has published the news that Russian Su-57 fighters, which are fifth-generation combat aircraft, tested in combat conditions on the territory of Syria took part in the attack of terrorist positions of the Islamic State (ISIL, a terrorist group , whose activity is prohibited in Russia - ed.).

“The Su-57 aircraft have already performed several combat missions inside Syria, with most of their attacks focused on the positions of the“ Islamic State ”in southern and eastern Syria. Although the Su-57 was not used as often as other Russian aircraft, this military aircraft played an integral role in their large-scale campaign to defeat the terrorist forces in Syria "- Lebanese edition reports.

It should be clarified that neither the command of the Russian Aerospace Forces grouping in Syria, nor the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation made any official statements on this matter, although earlier it was reported that Russian fighters took part in strikes, but only to test their combat capabilities .
