God, what a stupid man you are. What illusion are you living in, it's unreal.

No, it's not a well-known lie, because every source that decides to mention the RCS of the Su-30 claims that it has 4m2 or less of RCS.It's a well know lie. The only sukhoi flanker that got a reduced rcs is the su-35.
This is the claim commonly attributed to the Su-27 and not the Su-30.Su-30 RCS is around 15m2
The same applies to all Western aircraft that fly in the Baltics, because they and the Su-30 have something called a transponder... which is always on in peacetime.Everyone tracks it easily. In the baltic they always detect them and they are very well aware of its RCS.

What a joke. They better see how bad it did in ukraine and switch for a su-75 production libe quickly.
It can't enter a zone protected by soviet-russian made systems against which it must be familiar be it electronically with their jammers but also physically by knowing the engagement envelop , yet they think they can go against foreign systems they barely know.
Still has a large RCS which makes it very easy to lock on and reduce effectiveness of its jammers. Large IR signature. 2 man crew that makes it expensive to train crews on.
Su-75 is desperatly needed.

Why the fixation on RCS?
Do you understand that the L band radar on Su-35s are not effected by all that expensive stealth incorporated in western stealth fighters of the 4th and 5th generation?
It is overpriced western aircraft that are going to struggle... you claim the Su-30 is bad but the west wont send any fighter planes of their own design into this conflict... not even large drones which are the best of the best.

I don't know. Ask Sukhoi and Mig why they focus on stealth in all their new designs if it is useless.
The small L band radar still need to be proven to work as radars.
Last time someone posted a source about that it was saying they are used for the datalink only. L band radar need a big antenna, look at all those nebo and p-18 type radars.
I read someplace that this Su-30SM2 package only upgrades the avionics and removes imported components. That the engine and radar upgrade to Irbis-E was not done unlike expected. That is disappointing.

This is true if I had mentioned the Su-30SM, but that was not the case, I was talking about the SM2 variant of the Su-30, the SM2 received engines and radar used in the Su-35.It has no supercruise, less powerful engine and radar and has older and less capable avionics.

I never said Rafale was invisible to radars or stealthy. It has a reduced signature.
If your Mig-29's zhuk-M can spot a 5m2 target at 120km, then against a rafale with 0.1m2 which would be around 1m2 with weapons or 0.5 with few air to air missiles, the range drops too low. The rafale will see first and launch meteors first.
With a 15m2 rcs even your jammer are not that effective. Reducing the rcs means jamming will protect you better since the enemy radar will have hard time finding a small target within the jammed false targets.
Irbis is good but to track and detect a target 300km away it needs to focus its beem so it is much harder to scan all the airspace at such distance. It would need the general location of the target from awacs and then focus its radar beam on it.
Rafale has a smaller rcs, its jamming would work much better.
Specially the meteor that is stuck on the aircraft like rafale or typhoon and almost doesn't increase the rcs of the aircraft.
No it's not a su-35 with two pilots. It has no supercruise, less powerful engine and radar and has older and less capable avionics.
It also has never been pictured with r-37M.
