The Russian military could never function without getting the huge amount of donations they get from the common folk. And Fighterbomber is one of the most efficient tools for that.

Yes, although the donations are usually rather material than financial. In the Russians military the soldiers must buy the bulk of their own ammo with their own money, and most of the food, vehicles and fuel come from private donors.
You put it well: it’s basically a charity.
