    The   Sukhoi Su-30   ( Russian :   Сухой Су-30 ;   NATO reporting name :   Flanker-C/G/H ) is a   twin-engine , two-seat   supermaneuverable   fighter aircraft   developed in the   Soviet Union   by Russia's   Sukhoi Aviation Corporation . It is a multirole fighter for all-weather,   air-to-air   and   air-to-surface deep interdiction   missions.
    The Su-30 started out as an internal development project in the   Sukhoi Su-27   family by Sukhoi. The design plan was revamped and the name was made official by the Russian Defense Ministry in 1996. Of the Flanker family, the   Su-27 , Su-30,   Su-33 ,   Su-34   and   Su-35   have been ordered into limited or serial production by the Russian Defense Ministry. The Su-30 has two distinct version branches, manufactured by competing organisations:   KnAAPO   and the   Irkut Corporation , both of which come under the Sukhoi group's umbrella.
    KnAAPO manufactures the   Su-30MKK   and the Su-30MK2, which were designed for and sold to China, and later Indonesia, Uganda, Venezuela, and Vietnam. Due to KnAAPO's involvement from the early stages of developing the   Su-35 , these are basically a two-seat version of the mid-1990s Su-35. The Chinese chose an older but lighter   radar   so the   canards   could be omitted in return for increased payload. It is a fighter with both   air supremacy   and attack capabilities, generally similar to the U.S.   F-15E Strike Eagle .
    Irkut traditionally served the   Soviet Air Defense   and, in the early years of Flanker development, was given the responsibility of manufacturing the Su-27UB, the two-seat trainer version. When India showed interests in the Su-30, Irkut offered the multirole   Su-30MKI , which originated as the Su-27UB modified with avionics appropriate for fighters. Along with its ground-attack capabilities, the series adds features for the air-superiority role, such as   canards ,   thrust-vectoring , and a long-range   phased-array radar . Its derivatives include the Su-30MKM, MKA, and SM for Malaysia, Algeria, and Russia respectively. The Russian Air Force operates several Su-30s and has ordered the Su-30SM variant as well.
