Su-35 is a political, economical, military and technical matter````not one alone can make this deal go through``
in terms of military and technical, it has nothing to do with 'filling' production capacity or engine or radar. the real deal is:
1: keeping up with the best kits that neighbors/opponents have (american would love to buy our J-10, 20 and FC-31 if we allow, but that doesnt mean China is more advanced than U.S in terms of aviation)
2: checking out their structural design (for the previous decade, SAC has a big problem of solving flankers structure flaws, especially when they changed almost all the important parts of the plane to domestic made, which made the problem even worse. only recently with the active service of J-15, J-16 and later on J-11D has the problem solved. but they still want to know how Russian's solved this problem with Su-35... in our circle, we call Su-35 the 'ultimate flanker')
to many people here think that an arse kicking plane is because they have arse kicking radars and engines```lol```but in our circle it far from that, if not million miles away from that misconception`! its a very very very complex issue that involves hundreds different fields of expertise!
the best example, not wanting to troll, is LCA, with all the decent parts from various renowned foreign companies, it is still not a decent plane.
in our circle, the real break through is J-10 and J-20, they are the real indigenous stuff from scratch, Chinese flankers are, as most western and Indian people like to put, products of 'copy'```indeed we learnt loads of things from flankers```even the armies and top brass wasnt very happy with original flanker's sub systems ```but as a whole, with sophisticated system support, it is indeed an excellent plane!
Nicely explained.
