With the arrival of the SU30SM2 and SU30MKM, where are the MKA and MKI?

The SU30SM2 is essentially a two-seater SU35 with canards.
MKM is derived from MKI.
Where are the other two MKM brothers?
MKI for the UK and MKA for China or France (China seems to be a less problematic option, as it integrates Chinese missiles).
Why so much reluctance with these two fighter jets?

MKA isn’t needed and MKI would just go to Japan like MKM (Edit: Just kidding)

What?

You mean Britain right? Or Russia? Or Israel? All those make a million times more sense than Japan lol

90% Britain, 10% Russian (if russians would cry enought)

Russians have mki as well

But it literally Su-30M “Comercial” “Indian”, I’m not againts, but… Nah, who cares

i honestly dont know what’s taking gaijin so long to add Indian planes, by the time they arrive, they would’ve already been power crept into oblivion by the planes around them.
Especially since some of them are basically copy paste russian and french planes which are easy to implement.

India is an official subtree of great britain, the MKI would go to britian

France? Under what flag would that be?

becasue the UK already has the EF as a top tier jet
China has atleast 3 or 4 options that they could add as well that are far more interesting than some copy paste slop
and france litterally has the best jet in the game currently

Here comes the controversial part: MKA, the A stands for Algeria.
But since it’s a very sensitive issue for Algerians, it probably wouldn’t be right to put an Algerian vehicle in France; the MKA would probably have to go to China, since it also uses Chinese weapons systems.

Hopefully they never add the MkI. Would be a stupid addition.

Though knowing Gaijin, they’ll do it, add KH-38MTs and use it as an excuse to never ever add Brimstones to the game.

guess they have to add Su-30’s to germany and italy as well then

India is an official subtree of the UK.

China does have several options, but all of them have either not been implemented or have been poorly implemented.
For example, the SU30MKK is premium and we probably won’t even see the MK2 in the patch; the J16 is claimed by Gaijin to be too advanced, but they put the SU30SM2 in that patch (which is basically a two-seater SU35); the J15 would also be incredible, but I don’t know why it hasn’t come to the game yet; the J11BG is more of the same (but I’d also like to see it in the game); the FCK1 A/C would be cool, but it’s already missed its timing.
The su30MKA would be an intermediate option between the su30mkk and the j16.

and i’ll be all for it, british cas is very mid to bad, and its not looking good for the foreseeable future since gaijin wont add brimstone 2’s

and?

Doesnt mean they have to add loads of soviet C&P for the sake of it.

Britain alone has enough vehicles for 7 full lines. 8 if you add some stuff from SA.

There is 0 excuse to ever add the Su-30

Britians CAS should be some of the strongest in-game. We simply do not need KH-38MTs for any reason. Its stupid.
