Russian Aircraft

Heck yes!

Project Tupolev Tu-154B-2
http://www.protu-154.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12512

This aircraft is one of the most complex addons available for FSX, and is a "systems simulation" of this three-engined airliner.
I have an entire unofficial "flight school" for it just due to the complexity involved:

Ivan Jurcaga's MiG-21MF

Less complex but still requires some reading. Very enjoyable and fast fighter jet!

Tim Conrad's An-32
(available on most websites)
Cargo/Passenger twin turboprop with nice VC. English language and not as complex as the others.

Kirill Konovalov's Il-86

Not fully decked out systems-wise, but it looks great!

The above are all freeware.
The following is payware:

Virtavia Ka-50 "Black Shark" attack helicopter.
(available at most flightsim stores)
Very nice VC but not complex systems-wise. Still looks good and is enjoyable.

Virtavia Mi-28 "Havoc" attack helicopter.
(available at most flightsim stores)
I don't have this one and it's getting pretty old, but it seems like it would be nice.

The above is all FSX-Native too. There are a number of FS9-era ports that work to varying degrees as well.

There's more but I need to look at what I have. I'll be back.
 
The L-39 isn't Russian! ;)

I have the Virtavia Tu-22 Blinder; decent VC, and a real beast to fly.
 
To add to Sean's List: Virtavia Ka-27/32 Hokum, Mil Mi-28 Havoc and Yak-52, Alabeo Sukhoi Su-26, Bear Studios MiG-17 (And the Chengdu J-10, which is Chinese but has a great VC), ALS sim Su-27 Flanker. VC quality may vary, check screenshots first.
 
Thomas Ruth has done both the Antonov An-124 and An-225 for Fsx; you can find those at Avsim.
