Russian-origin, Indian-operated aircrafts, equipped with French & Israeli sub-systems, flying across the skies of Britain.
These picture were taken when the IAF visited the country, in 2007, as part of their bi-lateral 'Indradhanush'-series of exercises with the RAF.
Photographer Dongyi Liu had these pictures, of the 'Flanker-H', among his other uploads. The IAF sent 6 Su-30MKI fighter aircrafts for the exercise in 2007 - serial numbers SB041, SB 042, SB043, SB044, SB103 & SB107. In an earlier post, today, had posted pictures of the Il-76 MD & Il-78MKI aircrafts that also took part in them.
