They were Su-27M and called Su-35 only for export marketing

that is not true
there were multiple flankers they called the Su-35 in the 90s
they all got an early version of the N010 and upgraded engines
i said most. you said only su-37 (711) has it
most=/= all
thats referring to the pictures i sent. i said that after the pictures

But the thing that was called ‘Su-35’ in the 1990s had canards. Because the Soviets at the time were copying American supermaneuverability research programs.
no Soviets anymore in 90’s though
But the program for researching canards and thrust vectoring dates back to the 1980s. In the 1990s, there was no time for research - all they were doing was trying to sell their best weapons systems to someone.

it first flew in 88, which is soviet. although to be fair, the first 2 planes were converted old t-10s prototypes, the first brand new t-10m/su-27m/su35 flew in 92, and only 3 production/serial aircraft were made in the mid 90s that went nowhere before the program collapsed, and was restarted in the early 2000s

Su33 had canards around the same time as those, and a very similar design was adopted and I don’t think the supermanoeuvrability programs had any meaningful reference to Su27s.
