Where did this image come from? A forum? Here?
It’s supposedly part of the evaluation process for Indias purchase of new fighter jets, did you know they recently bought more rafales? I think thats it
yeah, I think they bought the m variant, probably to supplement the mig-29k.
that image is older
it was for the MRFA in 2018
yeah, it was something like that, and they revived the program to buy even more and ended up picking the exact same one

In case anyone entertained any hope, clear answer Su-35S isn’t coming this update :
F-15EX and no Su-35S is crazy
Business as usual , after all we getting Su-15 6 years after F-104 XD
F-22 vs Su-35S next update trust.
But hey, at least US mains can’t complain anymore about using aircrafts from 70s against modern tech (they don’t know how to google)
I mean isn’t Su-30SM2 about the same age as F-15EX? Seems to be pretty equal among most trees with one big outlier (F-15IA)
Half a year younger if you look at delivery dates (march 2021 vs Jan 2022). But we had plenty of retarded topics when people took F-15C introduction date (not even MSIP version or the fact that current in-game config is from mid 2000s) and compared it to something like Su-27SM.
Muh 70s airframe against the beast from 2004 (Su-27SM are retrofits of airframes from the 70s)
they retrofitted T-10 prototypes?
fine, from the 80s
Sh-135 has an extended threat detection envelope thanks to the Su-35S having synchronous DRFM capability with the LEF AESAs.
very nice and very cool
and now we need a source or the Su-35S will have the same coverage as any other jet with the L-150
What happened to that nato cope about fighting 30 year newer russian equipment
Epitome of fictional vehicles rn
Su-30SM2 with al41 and irbis (doesnt exist yet), with aesa eurofighter (doesnt exist yet) and F15IA (doesnt exist yet)
Not to correct you but the Qatari Typhoons have AESA Radar ECRS Mk0 AESA and Turkish Typhoons being built will have AESA Radar.
Just because Britain and Germany have not seen an immediate need to refit all of their Typhoons with AESA does not mean it is “fictional” If War was to break out those Radars being put into export models would be prioritised for their own fleets. Similar to how we saw Russian models for export be put into the service of the Rusfed (early on)
Typhoons missiles are 30 years old :(
ZK 355 is flying as a ECRS MK2 testbed, and german ECRS MK1 quite literally made its maiden flight with PFAT in july lol, so far from being fake
anyhow offtopic
