In the early 2020s, it supplied JF-17 Block 3 fighters to Azerbaijan and J-10C fighters to Uzbekistan, both replacing Soviet-era MiG-29 aircraft.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"17\"\/><\/p>\n<p><h2>Su-57 could replace Kazakhstan&#8217;s Su-27<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"19\"\/>The Su-57 is expected to replace Kazakhstan&#8217;s ageing Su-27 fleet and could potentially replace MiG-31 aircraft at a later stage.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>If confirmed, the procurement would make Kazakhstan the second former Soviet republic after Russia to operate a fifth-generation fighter and potentially the second foreign customer for the Su-57 after Algeria.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>The Russian aircraft is generally considered less technologically advanced than the Chinese J-35 and US F-35 in several areas. However, it offers advantages including relatively lower maintenance requirements, longer range, extensive combat experience and access to a range of specialised missile systems.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>The reported acquisition would therefore deepen Kazakhstan&#8217;s existing reliance on Russian-origin military aviation while giving its air force access to a more advanced generation of combat aircraft.<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/timesofindia.indiatimes.com\/defence\/international\/kazakhstan-set-to-receive-russian-su-57-fighter-jets-within-two-years-reports\/articleshow\/133623268.cms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Su-57 is expected to replace Kazakhstan&#8217;s ageing Su-27 fleet and could potentially replace MiG-31 aircraft at a later stage.
