The Russian Navy comprises four fleets operating in the Atlantic, Arctic and Pacific oceans as well as the Baltic, Black and Caspian seas.

During the first foreign demonstration of the new Russian Sukhoi LTS Checkmate fighter at the Dubai Airshow, a program official confirmed that the Light Tactical Aircraft presented is a nonflying demonstrator intended for on-ground synchronization of construction components and equipment.

After making its move with a next-generation light fighter designed for export, Russia believes it will be able to scoop up orders from a wide range of countries.
