Interesting. Do you have a source for that?

Where is your source that Su-30 used Zhuk-ME? Only Mig-35 uses it.
Wikipedia. And I'm referring to Zhuk-MS and Zhuk-MSE.
On the Wikipedia link, it says that the section o. Radar doesn’t cite any sources.
Bad source. Its common knowledge they are not using Zhuks and the cockpits are not any better.
If you do find any source to back up your claims, then please share it. Thanks in advance.

Um, that’s not how logic works. When sometime tells you there is no known instance of something happening, asking them for a source is akin to trolling as you cannot prove a negative. The burden of proof lies with those claiming something has happened.
In this case, if you are convinced that PD radars have been operationally deployed on export or Russian frontline Flankers, then it is up to you to provide that proof rather than asking others to prove it didn’t happen.
I don’t know how I can prove it for certain unless I open every Su-30’s nose cone. That said, if Russia did provide Zhuk radar upgrades In sure we would’ve heard about it by now.
I recommend you go through the exchange between me and the other users again and look for where I claim that the Su-30MKK and the MK2 use slotted planar array radars. I just posited the question and tried to find sources that the Su-30MKK and MK2 use slotted planar array radars, because I thought, and still think they do. It has nothing to do with trolling. I am genuinely interested in how the Su-30MKK and MK2 avionics compare to the J-10A's avionics.
Fair enough. Perhaps time will tell.
