Ngl, I quite prefer the clipped tails of the Su30MKK and it’s derivatives compared to the regular tails that the 30SM has

The Su-30SME (Myanmar) is equipped with IKSH-1KI-1…December 15, 2022…
I meant HUD, I know it doesnt have the HMD
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.
Pretty cool Camo.
True the blue cross of the Russian Naval Ensign of the Black Sea fleet singles out the Naval attack squadrons.
would the su-30mki be the best su-30 variant or would the j-16 be?
Su-30MKK based on Su-27UB

Best ATM. Su-30SM2. If India can pull the Super Sukhoi dream with that Aesa Radar with 2400(¿) GaN T/M and AL-41/117s. That would be the best “Su-30”. J-16 its really modern. But it don’t have TVC(?).
Now I’m confused. Yea Su-30’s are two seaters. But i remember reading that Some Venezuelan Su-30MK2/AMV. use Su-35 airframe. The only thing i was able to found. Its that Su-30mk2 are build by KnAAPO. While Su-30mki are made by Irkut. Must have be a Venezuelan Copium.
Su-30MKK, MKV-Vietnamese, MKV2 Venezuelan, they are all based on the Su-27UB.Irkutsk produces the Su-30MKI-a Su-30MK with canard for India
This is a translation from Spanish to English of what i found.

The Su-30 has two different version branches, manufactured by competing organizations: KnAAPO and the Irkut Corporation, both under the umbrella of the Sukhoi group. On the one hand, KnAAPO manufactures the Su-30MKK and Su-30MK2, sold to China and later to Indonesia, Vietnam, Venezuela and Uganda. Due to the involvement of KnAAPO from the early stages of development of the Su-35, the aforementioned versions are basically two-seat versions of the first version of the Su-35 from the mid-1990s. This is a fighter-bomber primarily dedicated to long-range air-to-surface attack missions.4? On the other hand, Irkut traditionally served Soviet Air Defense and in the early years of Flanker development it was given responsibility for the manufacture of the Su-27UB, the two-seat training version of the Su-27. When India showed interest in the Su-30, Irkut offered them the Su-30MKI, a version derived from the Su-27UB modified with avionics appropriate for multirole fighter missions. Along with its ground attack capabilities, this series adds new features for the air superiority mission, such as thrust vectoring, canards and a long-range radar.
What nonsense

As you have already been told above, the initial design for all Su-30s is the Su-27UB of the Irkutsk plant!.
1.Su-30/Su-30K-air defense fighters…
2.Su-30MK (1993)_The first demonstrator aircraft with that name…
- India signed a contract on November 30, 1996 for the supply of 40 Su-30K/Su-30MK units, the contract provided for 4 stages of deliveries with a gradual increase in combat capabilities…The Su-30Ks of the first batches were serial Su-30s with minor changes in equipment and navigation system…On June 11, 1997, the official presentation of the first eight Su-30Ks took place at the Lohegaon Airbase…The second batch of ten aircraft (1999) is officially called the Su-30MK (these aircraft were originally for Indonesia, which it was unable to purchase for financial reasons), although in India the first batch of Su-The 30K is often referred to as the Su-30MK…
- The Su-30MKI(T-10PMK-1) first flew on July 1, 1997…The first batch of 32 serial Su-30MKI from the Irkutsk plant was delivered to India in 2002-2004.
5.Su-30MKK_The first flight was on May 19, 1999…
They differ from the Su-30MKI in the vertical tail of a larger plane, height and thickness from the Su-35 aircraft, the first with the same name, or rather the Su-35 (Su-27M).,engines and does not have a front horizontal tail…
Su-35(Su-27M)…

even then the russian huds are alot better than the rafale one imo
you get less clutter on your hud and still all the relevant information
also the rafale hud isnt even especaily good for simulator battles,
the only hud that is special/ better for simulator is the Eurofughter HUD because it is able to show you all your radar contacts at once which gives you great situational awarness
The flanker is one of the few planes that IMO are better looking with 2 seat
