Su-30MKI GROWLER SKI
FLANKER IN ELECTRONIC ATTACK ROLE.
On December 14 HAL, ADA and other related organisations conducted Vibration test on Su-30mki
The tests were carried out for nine configurations, including clean configuration,
with bombs (2 tons) at station 1 & 2 (centerline of the aircraft),
with BrahMos missile at the newly-developed station 13,
R-27 missiles at station 3-6, R-73 missiles at station 7-10
SAP518 pod (ECM jamming pod) at station 11-12.
SAP-518 is capable of overriding the sensors in Air defence systems by jamming and creating electronic signature of many aircrafts within the system. SAP-518 along SAP-14 makes MKI equivalent to EA-18G GROWLER, but will have payload.
Its capable of containing all defence systems working within G-J bands.Malaysian Flankers SU-30MKM are other operator of SAP-518 in Asia.
SAP-518 along with SAP-14 and earlier variants like Sorbtsiya L-SERIES are few tactical systems within Indian Arsenal less known to the world.

Wrong infos I would say, the SAP518 are wing tip ECM pods, which makes the given stations questionable, but they are also "only" meant for self protection and not escort jamming like the ALQ 99 pods of the Growlers, that is what the SAP14 is meant to do and other than Su 34s, no Flanker version has got such capability so far. Su 30s and Su 35s have (in our case will get) increased self defence capability, by integrating the wingtip pods, but to make it similar to a Growler, we need a proper jaming pod, be it from Russia, Israel, France or an indigenous one from DARE.
Did it. UAVs aren't listed!@Umair Khan Niazi
Please put Indian Navy coastguard and army aviation as well. What about UAVs?
