Unlikely. A recent report was saying Chinese military avionics have migrated fully to indigenous chips, which have a very different architecture than the x86 that the Windows Xp is running on.

Or any MS Windows for that matter. The system contains a lot of ballast you don't want to bother with. You can assemble an operating system from Linux parts but it might be better to chose a Real Time Operation System designed for use in combat aircraft.

No way. XP isn't even a real-time operating system.
Windows got too much junk to be used as an embeded system. Even DOS is better than windows. There are still industrial systems that uses DOS as its OS. M$ has introduced an IoT version of windows 10. Don't know how successful it is
With the "last" years winning of the Golden helmet tropy by the Su-30MKK's regiment (9. AR) of the 3. Division .... and in mind of the previous years habit, that these aircraft were allowed to carry a special marking (like the Eagle's head for the 44. Div J-10A and the 33. Div winged-33) will the 3. iv also get a special marking ? What do You think ?

"We'll Sock it To Ya", they do look like they are having fun! woo hoo, the Flanker is still a "rocket sled"!
Sino-Flanker with Taihangs...
(1600x1066)
and while we are yakking up these Chinese Flankers, yeah! this is a nice Top-Gun style pull off the deck, note the verts/rudder and horizontal stabilator juncture provides an inner end plate for one another, and the flapperons work with the stabilons/rolling tails to roll the aircraft, and you can clearly see the deflections of each as they work together to roll to the left. A very studious picture showing the blended fuse/wing juncture, and leading edge slats/flaps.
