The Su-30SM for the Russian Air Force was produced until 2018…All of them are also Belarusian/Kazakhstani/The Armenian and Malaysian Su-30MKM are equipped with Thales HUD 3022 (CTH 3022)…
To be frank, does it matter? (well, unless it academic interest, then sure) We dont see the instruments/screens for the second crew member anyway (Would be very based to actually be able to play from their perspective tho)
Well they will need to do that for Sim. And also generally I just like it better when planes have clean cockpits rather than a bunch of dials. Radar screens and RWR are really important.
Ok thanks. I read that France stopped delivering HUDs due to sanctions in 2015 but I couldn’t find any information on whether Russia has been using the IKSH-1KI or IKSH-1M since then, apart from this image:
The import substitution program was launched in 2015 (1 aircraft was converted with the installation of IKSH-1M)…

The Su-30SME (Myanmar) is equipped with IKSH-1KI-1…December 15, 2022…
Su-30MKK its based on Su-35. More modern construction materials compare to others SU-30’s… I remember reading that Venezuela got some Su-35 Airframes in Su-30mkk configurations.
