Mainly for frontline fighter role,but its also used for ground attack role ( Yak-130 is the main ground-attack bird though ) as well as interceptor role ( especially the F-7 BGs based at Foward Air Base,Cox's Bazar )

all they say is it's (yak-130) is used for advanced training role...
f-7s for ground attack is okay but frontline fighter role is like asking enemy to kill the few fighter pilots we make after strict and harsh training...

Yaks are advanced enough to fit the ground-attack role. Hell, any plane can be turned into A2G. Some in USAF is thinking of reinstating turboprops like Super Tucano after they retire A-10 warthog.

well yeah ofc... primary purpose in our airforce is to train though...
man should've kept those a-10 on service maybe upgrade them with latest tech and open production line... those are the cheapest to maintain in USAF at the moment.

Main purpose fulfills if we buy potent 4++ gen crafts. But if not, they can also work as a stop-gap workaround.
Inter-service rivalry I guess. Army insists theybare perfect for A2G and CAS. But AF doesn't wanna do A2G work anymore.

Wrong,Yak-130 can field a wide range of lethal A2G weaponry including some of the Kh series missiles ( eg Kh-25 ).And it has a high number of 9 hardpoints ( the largest number in BAF ) to carry a dedicated air to ground combat role.It can field Chinese,Russian,European and US weapons at the same time.Russia even wanted to replace its Su-25s with Yak-131,an upgraded version of Yak-130.
