Su-30MKI "Flanker-H"

I present to you, the long waited (for me), Su-30MKI Flanker.

So Glad to be Back Ya'll.

The copied wikipedia definition of the Su-30MKI,

The Sukhoi Su-30MKI (NATO reporting name: Flanker-H) is a two-seater, twinjet multirole air superiority fighter developed by Russian aircraft manufacturer Sukhoi and built under licence by India's Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) for the Indian Air Force (IAF). A variant of the Sukhoi Su-30, it is a heavy, all-weather, long-range fighter.

Some things to mention
(ONLY WHEN THRUST VECTORS ARE ON)
It has a very sensitive flying aspect undergoing Negative G maneuvers. It tends to overcorrect and will spin out of control.
The Missiles, the R-77 it's fins are missing some parts due to transporting issues (Mobile to Computer vice versa)
