yeah, there isn't anything more manauverable then the Su-30 in the entire world at the moment. Also, i'm not sure about this but isn't the Su-30 capable of pulling a 180 degrees Cobra manauvre???Cow is the only animal that not only inhales oxygen, but also exhales it.

whenever someone posts a video like this, that is usually the first reply. just suck it up and enjoy the vid man. Of course it helps in combat, WVR that is. BVR is a different story.

Manuevering like that eats up all your air speed and then you're well and truly F'ed.
Besides, you can turn all you like, you're still not out-turning a missile. You have to beam those, and none of the fancy-dan airshow tricks are particularly useful for beaming a missile.

sniper, the Su-30 can loose speed and then gain it dramatically... oh yes and sniper if by "beaming" you mean using chafs, then trusts me... manuverability helps A LOT!!!Cow is the only animal that not only inhales oxygen, but also exhales it.

In my opinion Sukhois are best air superiority aircraft, presently, in the world.
I agree that excellent manueverability helps in "dogfights"; however, a pilot will not practically stop his aircraft to do this manuever if attempting to avoid a BVR missile: that will ensure his destruction. Yes it can "gain speed dramatically", but in no way fast enough to gain sufficient velocity to cut the arc.Last edited by Franco Lolan; 23 Jan 05,, 17:31.

actually during a cobra manuver, the Su-30 raises it's nose up and almost comes to a complete stop instantly... whatever following the plane, passes by without hitting the plane. The Su-27 has the cobra capability as well but I believe the Su-30 can do the 180degrees cobra which is literally impossible by any other aircraft. In a close dogfight the Su-30 would seriously pop targets out of the sky without much effort by the pilot.Cow is the only animal that not only inhales oxygen, but also exhales it.

Obviously you have no idea what a beaming manuever is.
Here's some food for thought. The AIM-9X is a 90G manuevering missile, the AIM-9L is a 70G missile. AMRAAM is somewhere in between.
Those fancy airshow tricks are utterly worthless in air combat.
