Iirc no one ever saw su-30 with kh-35. Only su-34 consistently carries kh-35, and other flankers only use kh-31s(red "mgm"s don't count).
It's unironically appears to be one of the reasons why otherwise rather mediocre mig-29m2 was so popular in later 2010s - everything is in fact integrated there, not just promises of "pay and we'll do".

Yeah, Venezuelan Flankers don't have Kh-35. The "designated" missile for the AShM role is the Kh-59MK.

And never got the Bal's. There was intent to get them along with Kilo's but it never happened

Oh well so much for that.
They did get the S-300VM though I think.
