Photo Comment

The Su-30 (or Su-27PU as it was originally called) was a two-seat version of the Su-27P interceptor, designed to support other single-seat Su-27P, MiG-31 and other interceptor aircraft in PVO service, with tactical data. Only few of this variant were ever built. It was later developed in the Su-30M for the export market and the Su-30SM for former CIS members.
