And it can't be photoshopped. Russians don't have that kind of tech.

I think it's a model. And that's not an su-30.

It is a model (or the real full sized plane is about 15 feet long).

Yeah, I could shoot that down with my shotgun and/or 3 wood.

I love thrust vectoring. There are some rocket videos on Youtube that I will never find again, sadly, of huge russian and chinese rockets immediatly thrust vectoring like a mother fricker RIGHT after launch and propel themselves back into the ground.

Thrust vectoring is the shite.

Downvote for not saying its a remote controlled plane and not an actual fighter.

That was fricking cool. I did not think they had the tech nor the pilots to even do it.

I couldn't hit it with my 3 wood.. I'd need my 7 iron.

Two ways. The jet you see here has both a positive thrust/weight ratio and thrust vectoring. A fighter with a positive T/W means the engine can generate greater thrust than the weight of the aircraft, so it can accelerate in any position, even a climb. Thrust vectoring is what allows it to execute the "dancing", which means the pilot/plane can change the direction of the engines thrust to allow it to execute maneuvers outside of normal flight. (Google Pugchevs Cobra Youbtube and enjoy). This plane is definitely modified beyond just vectorable thrust nozzles.
Super maneuverability


DISCLAIMER: My knowledge on this is solely through my own interest in the subject and I don't claim to be an expert. Someone like 777Tiger can probably provide you with a much better explanation.

Edit: I see it's an RC jet. Well to save the OP, I'll post some videos of actual shite.

While the Su-30SM is a very capable fourth generation fighter, it stands no chance against the Raptor—especially in a beyond visual range engagement. Purely on hardware terms, the Raptor has an advantage on every metric except range and payload. The F-22’s combination of stealth and sensors means that the Russian aircraft would likely be destroyed before they had any idea they were being targeted. During regular training exercises in the United States, a group of four F-22s will have to practice against as many as twenty “enemy” aircraft in order to get any useful training accomplished.

I on my phone so I can't see much detail. One thing I can assure you though is that's not an SU-30. Looks kinda like it may be an Eurofighter.

SU-30


Eurofighter

Only thing is the one in the video appears to be a single engine aircraft. I'm not sure what it is.
