Okay, I have a question.

As someone who is not a devoted student of modern aerial warfare, I don't quite understand the complexities of the same.

Does the added maneuverability, when coupled with countermeasures, not significantly increase the probability of evading a missile attack?
And does the new SU-30 not have any means of reducing its' radar cross-section to make it less vulnerable to AMRAAMs?
