Algeria, which recently ordered an estimated 14 to 16 Sukhoi Su-34 fighter-bombers, currently operates 44 Su-24MK2 aircraft in service. Russian defense industry sources expect further orders of Su-34s to eventually replace all of Algeria's aging Su-24MK2 fleet. The Su-34 offers advanced strike capabilities and is seen as a natural successor to the Su-24 in Algerian service.
