NextImg:A rare photo shows Russian and American fighter jets in one place, in India

BENGALURU, India — At first glance, the photograph of two fighter jets - one parked on the tarmac and other zooming past it in the air - appears entirely commonplace. In reality, it is anything but.

The Russian Su-57 Felon and the American-made Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II - both advanced fifth-generation fighter aircraft made by rival countries- have been sharing the same space in India since Monday, a move described by India’s defense ministry as historic. The participation of the two at the Aero India 2025 international airshow comes at a time when India is seeking to bridge its fifth-generation fighter gap.

India depends on Russia for nearly 60% of its defense equipment, but the war in Ukraine has added to doubts about future supplies, and New Delhi has been looking more toward the U.S., Israel, Britain, and others.
