Wow, I guess I always knew the su-34 is much larger than F-16, I just never realized how much bigger it is

I’d much rather be in the F-16 with US kit and support. I mean the more appropriate comparison is the F22 and the Su34 since the F-16 was already in flight almost a decade before the Su-34 anyway but either way I’ll take the US kit.
F-16 is way more agile, especially at lower altitudes, which is where you will be flying in a contested airspace.
Also, it’s hilarious that Russia keeps shooting down their own Su-34s

Judge me by my size, do you?

Does that mean that the Sukhoi is easier to detect with radar, because it is so big?

Weren’t the Iraqis flying Russian planes? Don’t remember that ending well for them either.

Maybe there is something to the saying, “it’s not the size of your tool. It’s how you use it.” That being said. I’m glad I’m well equipped & know how to use it. It’s more like an F-15. Commence the bad jokes.

This isn’t the first time I’ve seen an American airplane parked next to a Russian airplane.

This is a light fighter next to a strike fighter, their operational objectives are about as different as you can get in today’s world

Is there a point to this post showing models of airplanes that have different roles?

The bigger, the heavier and less agile. And it’s the lethality of its venom that kills that behemoth. Did i just said venom? Oh, viper.

Bigger doesn’t mean better in this comparison.

It’s prolly closer to the f15, right?
Su34 is also a fighter/bomber so it needs to be bigger to carry enough ordinance for ground strikes. F16 is a pure interceptor.

I mean the f16 is basically single engine light fighter to compliment the bigger f15 which is similar to su34/su27 in size

The F-16 is far bigger after the Su-34 hits the ground

Su-34 is a fighter/bomber. 2 pilots sitting side by side, like the SU-24.
It’s got a lot more common with the F-111 Ardvark than the F-16

Real talk though, those are way cool models. Are they custom made? Both are beautiful machines. Glad that Ukrainians have F16s now and are using them well.

Which I guess makes the su-34 an easy target

[Mig-29 beside Flanker variants that the SU-34 derives from](https://i.ibb.co/9prygpR/Screenshot-2024-10-13-at-04-18-09.jpg). The mig looks comically small!
