Kinda what I assumed, but I wasn’t sure.
lots of other stuff in that area, and it could be the result of poor maintenance or a deeper flaw
i rewatched the video, i dont see any white smoke while its flying/falling

Decided to spend 80 dolla dolla so I can say I have every flanker again. (at least the Russian ones, the Chinese ones will come soon.)
would you like the video ?
like i said, i saw it and there is no white smoke coming from the engine
That was not from the engine
“fuel surge relief valve, vents to protect over pressurisation during heavy manoeuvres, positive or negative Gs, mostly negative Gs, The manoeuvre pulled by LCA before crash ends in a negative G sink as the aircraft is thrown outwards from the outward momentum of the spiral flight”
it is unrelated to the cause of the crash, which is due to pilots mistake.

U can put anything on the pilot, but it is impossible to tell at this point. It could well be malfunction of the flight control system, there are abnormal pitches seen in HAL’s performance, and I doubt that is completely ‘pilot’s’ mistake.
Also just saying the same manoeuvre was performed at earlier airshows (successfully), and comparing the footage, clearly when the plane is taking the turn this time there was a significant pause, where it appears for some reason the plane turned towards the wrong side, which lead to lost of alt and ultimately the crash. This could be either pilot, flight control or even some sort of external factor.

Can someone explain why I see dogfight clips of Rafales, Typhoons, F-2’s at 400-450 kmph and not struggling to maneuver but when I try that in the Su-30SM I’m struggling not to fall out of the sky
bcz sukoi love BB flanker and Dont love small PP plane like rafale

So we can say with a certain degree of certainty that they wouldn’t add the Su-30SM2 now, since it essentially wouldn’t bring many changes, just an improved N011 and maybe AL41s, so we can assume we’ll have the Su-35 in December. I can already see it being delayed and we’ll have to wait until mid-2026 to get it, like with the Su-30SM.

If you are talking about WT - different lift. Rafale in WT pretty much doesn’t loose lift at any attainable AOA. Unlike Flankers that not only looses lift at less AOA than Rafale in WT but also can achieve this AOA much easier.
AL-41F-1S hasn’t been fitted yet, and won’t be for a while from the looks of things.
the only things the 30SM2 really brings gameplay wise is a new cockpit, R-37M and possibly more CMs all of which the Su-35 does and more so i would imagine gaijin will skip the SM2
Inb4 Su-30SM2 premium.
it doesn’t specifically say that it is “upgraded bars”. Words are deliberately kept very vague, and chief desgner also deliberately refers to it as “Su-30 radar”. It could be upgraded Bars, it could be Irbis, it could be stolen AN/APG-63 and it still will be technically a “Su-30 radar” if it is intalled in it.
Su-30SM2 doesn’t have an enlarged nose section like Su-35 so there might be a possibility that Irbis limited by 40 degrees when installed into Su-30.
