But with off the shelf avionics and ECM suites, it would be hard pressed to make an impact against the western powers.

He would been better off buying many more counter insurgency and light attack a/c than a top end air superiority fighter like the Sukhoi. They look nifty at airshows, in a real shooting war with the US Navy, they would last about 5 minutes, and everybody knows it.

If properly maintained AND supported (with good training courses), the Su-30s and MiG-35s (New version of MiG-29s) can be very good machines.

He didn't say his video didn't suck. He just says it sucks less.

Anyways...thanks for getting things locked and edited so when I get back on my highspeed internet I won't be able to watch either of them

No complaints here at all. You're not only right about the sales, but we're also acquiring a lot of convenient targets much closer to home than the ones we currently have
