Circumstances were different back then, even you can acknowledge things have changed, the space-based ISR capability they granted us for one, which would've never happened in 2016.

 

[SalarHaqq]

Is SU-35 news confirmed.

A regular news site in Iran reported that it's on the agenda of the Air Force, and that the Defence Ministry and General Staff of the Armed Forces are the ones who'll make the final decision, which suggests that if they agree to it, an order could be placed - in which case Russia in turn would have to accept it and then effectively deliver.

The news site is quoting an Air Force official, not stating anything by its own.

I just never heard of this site before, so I do not know if they make fake news or not.

Iranian Air Force official is probably the least credible source left in the Iranian armed forces. I can shower you with many articles of false news or predictions in last two decades extending all the way up to Bagheri himself.

Wether it’s Iranian reluctance or Russian reluctance or both, Air Force is in the worst state it’s ever been. Their biggest “accomplishment” in last 10 years has been Kaman-22.

Also outside of the ex-Egyptian SU-35s sitting in storage, questions remain if Russia (specifically Sukhoi) can make the amount of SU-35s Iran needs specified to Iranian needs.

Right now Iran is supplying the Russian car industry with spare parts. What % of Sukhoi SU-35 relies on foreign parts or raw materials? That is the key question we don’t know. Even Sukhoi’s SuperJet passenger plane is 10% western foreign parts.

Why would anyone buy base export version of SU-30? It’s literally a flanker with 20-30 year old electronics. SU-35 has been on the agenda for over 10 years. How slow is this agenda?

As @Hack-Hook said, this news is nothing new. These Air Force officials just recycle words every couple years. Last year Bagheri said deals were concluded. Everyone here praised the end of the “so called arms embargo” and yet we are at the same point in the SU-35 stage we were several years ago.

Not sure why these “officials” travel to Russia for arms talks then make a stereotypical fluff press release and then we hear nothing. Then the cycle repeats itself.
