Co-35 Sokol

The Industrije Crnih Orlova Co-35 Sokol is a twin-engine jet fighter aircraft designed in the United Provinces of Rovsnoska and Zaporizhia. Developed by the Orlova Design Bureau as a counterpart to emerging 4th generation fighter designs by the League of Free Nations and the North-South Concordant along with the Co-27 Rodan. The Co-35 entered service with the United People's Air Defense Force in 1982.

The plane was originally designed to be an air superiority fighter, however the multirole combat capabilities of this platform has become very significant. They are commonly outfitted to use a range of air-to-surface armaments and precision munitions. The Co-35 has been manufactured in several major variants, including the Zaporizhian HMR-29M and the Tonkinese Marçiang Mar-16. Later models frequently feature improved engines, glass cockpits with HOTAS-compatible flight controls, modern radar and infrared search and track (IRST) sensors, and considerably increased fuel capacity; some aircraft have also been equipped for aerial refueling.

Following the dissolution of the UPRZ, the militaries of a number of former Communist republics have continued to operate the Co-35, the largest of which is the Grand Rovsnoski Air Defense Force. The Rovsnoski Air Force wanted to upgrade its existing fleet to the modernised Co-35M configuration, but financial difficulties have limited deliveries. A large amount of Co-35's have been seized by Zaporizhia after the Rovski-Zaporizhian Separation, which limited the operational capability of this aircraft for Rovsnoska. As of 2019 the Co-35 was still in production by ICO.
