Although not officially acknowledged by the Ruskovian Defense Ministry, the Sk-70 optionally manned reconnaissance / fighter was first reported by ground crews in combat zones dating back to the mid 1990s. The aircraft utilized a faceted design reminiscent of U.S. developed stealth aircraft. Multiple pilot reports of the aircraft in flight indicate that a human pilot is not required for all mission sets, but any dynamic (air to air) engagements with U.S. Forces have all been manned, leading to the belief that the aircraft is limited in what it is capable of when operating autonomously. Sensor data indicates the Redwing is more reconnaissance focused but carries limited air-to-air and possibly air-to-ground weaponry in internal fuselage bays along with numerous cameras and sensors.

In the early 2000s, an unmanned Sk-70 was shot down by Ruskovian Forces due to a guidance system fault.

The cockpit of the Sk-70 utilized largely off-the-shelf MiG-25 Foxbat components and instruments.
