I have to admit to a mistake, apparently India briefly used the MK while working on the MKI. I guess they got inpatient?
I did not
Why do you think I sent a picture of a Vietnamese Su-30MK2 where you can see that it uses a N001
On Sukhois they are because they were never exported or put in service with them
Vietnam got their Su-30MK2’s in 2012-2015
And Venezuela got their Su-30MK2 in 2006
You have yet to post a source for your claims

You’re the one who needs to post a source for the MK2 using the old radar. You’ve posted a source for the MK with the radar that was used when the MK was being advertised and perhaps you think showing a Vietnamese MK2 proves your point? What, you think it would need canards for the Zhuk? You seem to still be confusing the Zhuk with the Bars, but now going on to deny the very existence of the Zhuk-MSE that was only used on Sukhois, starting with the later MKKs ~2003 (ahead of MK2 deliveries in 2004).
I get it, there are lots of Su-30 variants and lots of Russian radars from various makers, it can be hard to keep track of. But you’ll never get your head around it if you start by denying blatantly mistaking the MK for the MKK and MK2 lmao. You post a Vietnamese Su-30MK2 fuselage with its Zhuk covered up and accuse me of not providing sources?
this is clearly a cover for the N001

Like every single source that talks about Tikhomirov proposing switching back to the N001 but with a new Pero antenna to make it a PESA makes clear that China rejected this bid
“”“Clearly”“”
Wow you’re so stubborn that you just go and prove yourself wrong.
you didnt provide anything
either post a source or stop with the cope
or even better do a bug report with that source

Flanker flight models were entirely fixed [in general flight performance] last year.
Post-stall maneuvers are allegedly still incorrect, but that’s not a notable feature for air RB matches.
How exactly is the plane designating targets for the laser guided weaponry? I can’t see any obvious built in laser designator.
The IRST module. Not sure about this one tho, but modern Russian jets do have this capability IIRC
the Su-30MK2 still has the OLS-27 afaik
so definetly not
and even if it had a more modern OLS it wouldnt have a laser to designate targets for laser-guided munitions
