Usually the day after the trailer, but could change because they released it on Monday instead of Thursday

Pretty sure the Russian air ministry said exactly the opposite of what you just said and that’s why they abandoned the forward canards on the su35 and later versions of the Su30 if I’m not mistaken…
Thrust vectoring adds marginal weight btw, only a few hundred pounds, the systems are drastically lighter than that of a canard which involves reinforcement of the entire forward superstructure. (I have worked on many canard aircraft and vectored aircraft in person)
Now as far as NATO aircraft go, being much smaller airframes, your argument holds weight I’m sure.

Its a china HQ-17
Later variants of the SU-30 still use canards due to the heavier front end.
All these planes (which dont have Fox-3) should be lowered
F-16 anyway have much better radar than Su-27
And why is that?
Dev stream always friday.
if one gen4 with fox3 can be lower why other can’t?
Which one?
So USSR is left to rot with straight up inferior planes ?
Incredible lmao. Su-27SM with garbage FM, short range missiles, useless radar against PESA, supercruising Gen 4.5th planes.

Honestly, Gaijin botched the USSR/Ru line, China, and really UK/Germany too.
Su-24 should’ve come with the F-111A, considering it’s actual viability in GRB and ARB.
Su-33 should’ve come with the F-14B. F/A-18A could’ve come here too, although it would’ve been a typical Gaijin move to give the US two top planes, this is where it belongs in terms of competition.
EFT and Rafale, assuming they’re in their infancy with how they release, could’ve come with the Su-27SM and F-15C, considering there’s still nothing really any better than the Su-27SM for the Soviets, and F-15C and F-15E are SPAMRAAMing now, and were back when the 15C released.
Su-30M should’ve come before Su-34.
Su-30MKK (China) should’ve come in the last patch with the Su-30M (RU).
Steps should’ve been taken to make the release of the Su-30SM with the EFT and Rafale. F/A-18C should’ve been in this patch too.

When did USSR last dominate Air ? Tell me ?
So let them smaller nations have a chance for a change
SU-27SM should have never come. They should’ve added the SU-30M2
main america leaving comes to cry in a corner
you said SU-27SM should be lower right so why can’t F-16C F-15C and Gripen too?

While it was unfair to left Germany without true top tier jet - ICE still have better radar than Su-27/J-11. Also better RWR and better BVR missile.
So?
