Why is he claiming that "dude" is Russian? His hairless arm or t-shirt?

It is soo good to see Iran finally get some new equipment for their airforce. I am looking forward to seeing the Su-35 in Iranian colours, and maybe some J10CEs one day?

Why is he claiming that "dude" is Russian? His hairless arm or t-shirt?

It is obvious he's not Iranian

- His skin color (sure some Iranians are have clear white skin)
- 0 hairs on his arms which is surprising, I've never seen an Iranian male without at least some hairs on his arms (sure he could have shaved his arm but i doubt about that, there are no reason to shave yours arms, people will mock you or think you are gay)
- His body shape, this is typically a body shape of a white that goes to the gym, Iranians are more bulky usually
- His leather belt visible
- His t shirt put inside his pants

Like he said 99% not Iranian, 1% is only in case he shaved his arms and has a surprising white skin tone

-Come on bro! You just being too mean!
We can agree on that there are some really light skinned Iranians.
Maybe he's an anomaly? Iranian with no hair? Rather that than an young Iranian man shaving his arm hair and still having access to a sensitive site.
-His body shape? Don't tell that to those rich kids of Teheran who spent half their days in the gym.
-I don't get the leather belt? Hmm
-And neither the t-shirt inside the pants thing. So Iranians guys don't wear their t-shirts inside their pants?

If he's Russian then things are looking all the better concerning Russo-Iranian cooperation!

Nothing unusual about the likely russian groundcrewman, probably he's part of a factory service/maintenance/warranty/training team since the Yak-130s are brand new.

It doesn't look likely Iran will recieve Su35s or J10cs, Iran should be going for the Jf17 block 3s, they can add their own weaponary on these planes, build local parts, maintenance etc.

There is even less chance that Iran can get JF17C's given the poor political and economic state of Pakistan. If the heavy weights wont sell to Iran because they dont think it is worth it, then how can Pakistan ?

Come on! Let Pakistan first implement the IP pipeline and then we can talk. The likelihood of such a cooperation is zero to none unfortunately.

we see 5+ Yak-130 jets in Iran, these are a prelude to su-35, it will happen

Сейчас по ящику заявили, что в Иран в январе поставлена партия Су-35
translated into English
Now they said on TV that a batch of Su-35s was delivered to Iran in January

I am looking for confirmation, and I am watching Russian web TV for possible confirmation.
However, if the news is true we will hear about it officially in the next few days, for now consider it as a hypothesis

Su35s and J10Cs are known as top end market products, Jf17 block 3s are known as lower end cost effective plane, our rival calls it 3rd generation junk fighter, I am sure we can use this to our advantage and sell it to Iran as it will not pose any threat to Iranian enemies. China/Pakistan sells it jointly.

Makes sense, but China can back the deal, or it can be sold through China as a defensive weapon. It's just an option, for Iran it would be perfect, they can integrate own weaponary, produce components and do maintenance in Iran.

Sadly I don't think it will happen, decades ago we read breaking news that Iran signed deal for su30 planes, now we have su35 planes and I have read report on Iran ready to buy su57 planes. Russia has no reasons to not sell advance jets to Iran, Ukraine has been armed to teeth by Nato, the only reason I think is zionist pressure.

Another option Iran has is to convert these planes in to a light weight 4th generation plane, incorporate all local made missiles, radars. It's specification is similar to Jf17 block 3s. Powerful engines are needed which Iran can import from China or Russia.

The contract for the sale of Sukhoi 30 and Sukhoi 35 has been concluded with the Russians, and it is unlikely that they will not fulfill it.

Of course, it may be similar to the S300 contract, the Russians are strange people and they love their enemies very much, and they did not even fulfill their own contracts on their enemies orders.
