Also I would more say the Su-35 program- Su-37 was short lived and really just added thrust vectoring.

The SU 30 was the testbed fighter with canards added . The commercial model was called SU 30K.

Does Sudan have any SU 30 ? They had SU 25 but not sure if they purchased any Su 30 , Uganda did however purchase Su 30 and had threatened to use them if Sudan attacks South Sudan.

Vietnam Air Force flies the advanced variant , the SU 30 MK2V .

To put it in a concise manner Irkut sold the same model of the SU 30 ( Su 30 MKK / Su 30 MK2 ) to China , Vietnam and Indonesia and exported the SU 30MKV model to Malaysia , Venezuela and Algeria .

There are hardly too many differences between the models sold above . However, there are stark differences when compared to the Su 30 MKI especially the upgraded SU 30 MKI Mk3.

Woops, I meant to say Uganda, you are correct.

Irkut did not sell any Su-30 without canards, they have been exclusively exporting the MKI and variants both abroad and at home.
Knaapo is the one that exported the Su-30MK/MK2/etc model with no canards abroad, and the Su-30M2 for domestic use.

Vietnam, Venezuela, China, Indonesia, Uganda all got the Knaapo Su-30.
The only Irkut "MKI" customers have been India (MKI), Malaysia (MKM) and Algeria (MKA).

All Irkut birds have PESA, TVC, Canards, as the biggest differences to the Knaapo birds.

Russia is to put up for sale a batch of 18 Sukhoi Su-30 multirole fighter aircraft, rejected by India on concerns about their engines and returned to Russia in 2003, a defense official said on Wednesday.

"The 18 Su-30s previously used by India and then returned, are in an aviation repair plant in Belarus and are on sale to potential buyers," said Alexander Fomin, deputy director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation. He added that the aircraft could be modernized before being sold on.

The Su-30MKI is India's lead fighter aircraft, and around 140 have been produced under license by HAL Aeronautics in India. The Indian Air Force is expected to buy a total of around 280 during the next decade.

Development of the Su-30 began in the 1980s for the Soviet Armed Forces, based on the Su-27UB conversion trainer.

The first batch of 18 Su-30s delivered to India were Su-30MK and Su-30K standard, and were built to a lower specification than the later Su-30MKI. This meant that they did not have thrust-vectoring engine nozzles or canard foreplanes, enabling extra maneuverability.

Their avionics systems were also built to a lower specification than the later Su-30MKIs built by HAL, which included a high level of Israeli and French-built systems.

Some Su-30SME specs

Sukhoi-30MK2 Venezuelan vs F 16 Block 50 Chilean.
-F 16 BLOCK 50 PEACE PUMA Radar APG-68 (V) 9 Range: 300km detect 10 targets can attack four targets simultaneously detects a type of aircraft MIG-29 to 140km a Mirage 2000 90km tracks in any of 120 degrees
-SUKHOI-30MK2 Radar N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP) there is always confusion about the extent some people tend to confuse N001VE (RLPK-27VE) with N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP) N001VEP is the improved SU-30MKK N001VE having a range of 250km the N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP) has a range of 300km can detect 10 targets to attack at 4 targets simultaneously tracks at an angle of 120 degrees in Venezuela has detected an F-16A Block 15 160km and another SU- 30 200km. The radar looks down and up systems with anti-jamming features.
-The Motor F 16 BLOCK 50 PEACE PUMA engine F110-GE-129 to a maximum operating speed of 2,414 km / h (Mach 2+)
SU-30MK2 motors of turbofan Lyulka Saturn AL-31F a maximum operating speed (VNO): 2,120 km / h (Mach 2+) but in a post FAV CLUB gives us a top speed of 2,500km although this is highly questioned and that manufacturer data gives us Mach 2.1
Electronic Warfare System AN / ALQ-211 F 16 50 PEACE BLOCK PUMA


The choice of FACh for electronic warfare system was very clear, they chose the system ITT AN / ALQ-211 (V) 4 known as SIRFC (Suite of Integrated Radiofrequency Countermeasures) or AIDEWS (Advanced Integrated Defensive Electronic Warfare Suite) system developed for the Apache AH-64D Longbow helicopters and other US Army, which will also be used by the F-16 Oman. This is a fairly sophisticated system that detects virtually any type of electromagnetic emission passive mode is a ground surveillance radar, radar airborne or radar missile, regardless of whether it is monopulse emissions, doppler or wave keep going. Detected emission, the system automatically analyzes and verifies 10 parameters of it, not only to identify but also to save to an electronic library, which can then allow, among other things, form a true map of emissions, this in view future attack missions, SEAD or recognition.
Once the signal has been detected, located and analyzed, a fact that happens in a few seconds the system generates a specific electronic interference and almost "tailored" to interfere or block the issuer.

a graded dielectric lens is used. Russian contractors have recently been using digital RF memory (DRFM), which is of the same generation as the US IDECM EWSP, and competing with the Israeli systems in their rapid integration of jammers modern specifically: Memory of digital radio frequency or blockers base (DRFM) these blockers can capture and replicate at high speed radars air interception may return signals leaving aircraft blind combat in the most critical moments of the fight using navigation systems that can negate any capacity the first shot finally the size of the stick does not matter because technology has changed the first advantage of injection to the opponents .



Radar Warning Receiver with Block Designation White
TsKBA Avtomatika L-150 Cake with block TUEs

It is a digital computer that uses technology superheterodyne reception for the reconstruction of the carrier frequency of the radar detectador Pie in the Su-30MK2 is comprised of a total of 10 antennas, 4 DF antennas, required for the azimuth (2 plane and the tail cone 2 on the leading edge slats), 4 antennas for the rough measurement in the same plane and two lifting antennas.

The covered azimuth sector is completely spherical 360 and lifting is ± 30 °, the frequency bands covered include 1, 2 to 18 GHz. The accuracy of finding is 2 to 3 ° azimuth in the frequency band 8 18 GHz, with antennas precision in a sector of ± 60 ° in the front and rear hemispheres and 10 ° in the other sectors. In the frequency bands 4 to 8 GHz, in a sector of 60 ° in front and rear hemisphere is 5th and in other sectors of 15 °. For the low frequency range of 1, 2 to 4 GHz detection accuracy is 15 degrees in all sectors. The memory bank radar emissions includes more than 128 different issuers. Cake can operate in 3 different modes, 2 of them for determination of situational awareness and one for the attack ground targets type radar transmitters in conjunction with the TUE system. The total weight of the equipment is 47, 2 Kg.

For designating targets for anti-radiation missiles expansion block called TUEs, which controls up to 6 anti-radiation missiles simultaneously, and provides target designation in a cone of ± 30 ° in azimuth and elevation +5 to -40 ° is used, working in 3 different modes with maximum accuracy of 15% of the estimated distance. Both teams find interconnected with flares launchers and radar chaff decoys APP-50P / A disturbance and nacelles.

If we talk about combat (BVR) or beyond visual range the SU-30MK2 first detected the F 16 but affordable range of BVR both SU-30MK2 and F 16 is 130km course not shoot one BVR his greater reach BVR broader FACH is the AIM-120 AMRAAM C-7 130km is fire and forget although it has created a myth the AIM-120 AMRAAM C-7 will load data of attitude, speed and location white is a lie that the small internal radar AIM-120-C 7 detects a type of aircraft SU-30MK2 120km the Royar Air Force in tests found that with older aircraft with discontinued systems is effective but against aircraft that have advanced systems that can detect AIM-120-C-7 to time it loses effectiveness so they deciding to use the option of transmitting contantes data to the missile AIM-120-C-7 has a GPS system the BVR far-reaching Venezuela is the R-27er 130km missile launcher constantly receives data plane which gives a greater chance of success. Although this is a missile with a semi-radar missiles activoTambién SARH are very deadly in narrower ranges (R-27 vs R-77, Sparrow vs. AMRAAM). The reason for this is that the radar fighter emits far more energy than the radar seeker missile While in the wing, the missile seeker SARH closed much faster than the missile seeker ARH going to take a bit of latency " looking for "the goal before it gets a lock on the SARH missile, on the other hand, it can be" snap "shot
Once fired, the missile SARH not reveal its position RWR the target, because it is completely passive. RWR target only tell where the direction of the radiant fighter and how close the radar fighter who is radiographed target This means that you do not know how to evade the incoming missile. The ARH missile could alert the RWR when going active and where it comes from, allowing the object of an evasive maneuver
Sukhoi-30MK2 has the IRST / LASER OEPS-27 is a system for detecting and tracking aerial targets with IR up to 90 km and a laser rangefinder for light air and ground targets to aim the cannon, bombs and missiles The F16 BLOCK 50 PEACE PUMA lacks this type of own system IRST / LASER OEPS-27 tests in Russia could detect an albatross 30km it is also effective for detecting BVR BVR missiles since the time of shooting to generate a large kinetic force. Supposedly The R-73 ESIGNATION NATO AA-11 Archer is better than the AIM-9 because the R-73 has a system that can make the difference between a flare and a nozzle here the explanation of an already old program aces future military combat experts of the United States give the eye no explanation to say they are Russians.

In the exercises Pitch Black Sukhoi-30MK2 II.Los Indonesian defeated the F-18E Super Hornet that many more modern than an F-16 BLOCK 50 PEACE PUMA many tend to say good because the F-18E Super Hornet is an on-board the aircraft these further from reality the F-18E Super Hornet is the 4 ++ western aircraft with lower radar signature was made to be a pure combat aircraft. In cabin Sukhoi-30MK2 uses less analog instruments F 16 BLOCK 50 There must remember that several of the pilots of the Su-30MK2 were operating the F system 16 Block 15 clear that less than F 16 Block 50 Venezuelan pilots know well that system to other always do combat training between the Su-30 and F 16
Knowing the best radar of an aircraft multi-role fighter in Latin America Radar SUKHOI30MK2
SUKHIO radar-SU 30MK2 is the N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP monopulse pulse Doppler type with a range of 300km which is an improvement of N001VE (RLPK-27VE) having a alance 250km
The N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP has the same characteristics (N001VE (RLPK-27VE) This will substantially improve the performance of air to air and increase the air-ground resolution. N001VE incorporated the moving target indication (MTI) and mapping capabilities, and the ability to detect low-flying or hovering helicopters. Processor series Baguet replaced BCVM-486-6, suitable for two out of ten simultaneously tracked targets with semi-active homing air-to-air radar, and the following distance is extended to 70 km. 250km)
N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP: Processor replaced Baguet 55 to 04.02, able to simultaneously track 10 targets and engage four air targets or two ground targets 10 series tracked and Detection covers against fighter aircraft, detection range 150 km against the bomber extended to 300 km. what gives R-77 compatibility.
In Venezuela the SUKHOI30MK2 detected the F 16th 160km and other SUKHOI-30MK2 to 219km can detect a frigate or a type exports 300km 75km ural truck and a tank type T 72 to 80-85km.
This has been tested for more than 200 hours compared with other radars in the region APG-68 (V9) operated by the 10 F 16 BLOCK 50 of the FACH - with a range of 300 km can detect an aircraft type MIG 29 and SU-30 to 140km an airplane as a Mirage 2000 90km radar acquires 4 white and detected 16 white the AN / APG-66 (V) 2nd of the 36 F 16 MLU FACH has a range of 144km can detect a plane as a MIG 29 and SU-30 80km 35km one Mirage 2000.
Doppler radar pulse rate Monopulse N-001VEP with a Cassegrain antenna inverted operating in bands I / J, and designed by the NIIP Tikhomirov Institute, it is a modernization of components and software of the original radar N-001 Myech, installed in the plane 1985. Development completed in 2003, within the framework of Pandade program includes multi-stage improvements applied to the original radar (starting from N-001VE model installed in the previous version, the Su-30MKK) the N-001VEP introduces changes consideration of the original search radar capabilities to increase air / air the same combat and combat capabilities introduce air / ground
a) The introduction of a new computer called radar data BTsVM-486-6 of OAO Elara, built around Intel CPU technology type 486DX2-50, AMD 486DX4-100, AMX5X86-133 and graphics processors to Intel 80860-25 allow the creation of a radar mode for use missile R-77 and run the old software from old computers STsV-1 and STsV-2 used in the radar.
b) To allow the interconnection of all computers in the radar with the other elements of the same control device data buses called N-001-04 is introduced. This equipment allows the free exchange of information in different computer languages ​​(C ++ used the new computer architecture and assembler POISK of the above), through the radar, facilitating integration work.
c) The introduction of a programmable digital signal processor called Baget 55.04.02 NIISI developed by RAN and a new low-frequency digital receiver called N-001-03VP-2 which allow the digitization of information received by the radar in its receptor and the formation of new modes of air / ground advanced (SAR, DBS, GMTI, RBM, SEA) work.
With these new additions the radar gain new capabilities in air / ground combat allowing the use of anti-ship radar-guided missile, which was not possible in the previous Su-30MKK and significantly improve air / air services by introducing the guided missile R-77 active. however it is said that the improvement of characteristics is mainly oriented to air / ground and capabilities air / air field are improved slightly.
For its performance air / air, the pilot can use up to 4 modes combat beyond the horizon (called PPS, ZPS, Avt and 2x1) and 2 close combat modes (Optika and Vertikal) ..
The radar automatically tracks in Transvisual combat modes up to 10 targets, analyzing their dangerousness based on the approach speed of the white (or distance, depending on the mode), as well as their electronic identity through the use of the IFF system. In case of emergence of a new contact one, once the top 10 contacts to follow are complete in the memory of the radar, it will perform a sequence reassessment of contacts, eliminating the less dangerous contact and classifying new in accordance with others . The radar scans in 4 bars elevation and azimuth in a non-variable pattern of ± 25 ° in azimuth (horizontal plane), being possible three sectors scan (left, center, right) to guide the search airspace. The maximum scanning in azimuth is ± 60 ° and ± 55 in elevation. The radar uses repetition frequencies of medium and high pulses depending on the mode.
For use air / surface search both as monitoring and attack, the radar uses two high-resolution modes: synthetic aperture (with unknown resolutions) and Doppler beam narrowing.
For tracking moving targets, such as land vehicles of all kinds, the display mode of moving targets on the ground is used, while a mode planimetric tracking actual beam, without complex signal processing is used for updates in the navigation system or cartographic references. For the use of weapons air / sea, radar has several modes air / surface designed to suppress the clutter and confusion of echoes from the waves and adjust the receiver sensitivity to climate change and noise random background radar.
For the attack on targets at long range, the Su-30MK2 can make use of Kh-59ME missiles. High subsonic cruise speed type, this missile uses an electro-optical seeker capable of transmitting information to the launcher aircraft using a data link two way. Reception by a pod called APK-9E carried by the aircraft. During the planning of the mission, the target coordinates are entered into the system or directly obtained by the radar N-Su-30MK2 001VEP of. These coordinates are downloaded to the unit guided missile and proper distance is fired, seleccionándosepreviamente one of four heights cruise flight on the ground, which can be 100, 200, 600 or 1000 meters, whereas if it is launched on water automatically flies to 50 meters above the waves, thanks to a radio altimeter. A 5 -10 km from the target, the missile initiates the transmission of the image of your browser bearer plane which may be moving away from the danger zone. The APK-9E includes front and rear antennas and radio control has a range of over 140 km. The operator weapon systems in the Su-30MK2, use search options and engage the missile seeker to select detail white and attack, making the guided until the last minute using a crosshair aiming or you can allow automatic attack in the traditional way. You can make use of two warheads, a high explosive penetrator 320 kg or a cluster of 280 kg. The missile uses an R-95 ™-300 turbofan thrust of 350 kg as cruise engine.
Now on some pages of Facebook or some people tend to confuse evil N001VE (RLPK-27VE) using the SU-30MKK with a range of 250km with the SU-30MK2 N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP with a range of 300km say that the N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP is similar to the AN / APG-66 (V) 2nd which is false the N001VEP (RLPK-27VEP exceeds said radar detection range greater capacity and other qualities.

According to available information, six Su-30SME fighters of the new construction of the Irkutsk aviation plant of PJSC "Irkut Corporation" should be delivered to Myanmar, Myanmar will thus become the first customer of the Su-30SME fighter, the export version of the Su-30SM fighter.
