    Two Russian military jet fighters, identifiable by red star markings and the number '21', are flying in formation above a cloud layer. The photograph appears to have been taken from a third aircraft, with its wing tip visible in the lower left corner. The aircraft are consistent with Sukhoi Su-27 or Su-30 variants based on their distinctive twin-tail, twin-engine configuration.
