24 Su 35 and 4 LADA Class submarines according to news report
Replacement may be possible, but they won't be as good.. else Russia won't have bought them from India in the first place.
Further, Su-35 doesn't simulate Su-30MKI since it evolved from Su-27, not from Su-30.
That's why Su-30MKI is 4.5 gen, while the base version Su-30 (including Su-30MKK) is only 4 gen.
Rafale is multirole fighter and PAKFA will be airsuperity so no comparison btw two.
The Su-35 is pretty on par with the AESA-upgraded J-11Bs and also the new J-15 and J-16. I can see no other role for the Su-35 in the PLAAF besides aggressor simulation.
Russia is denying Chinese media claims that Moscow and Beijing have signed agreements to sell Russian-made arms and military technology to China, including 24 Su-35 multirole fighter jets and four Amur-class diesel submarines.
During a recent visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping to Moscow from Friday to Sunday, no discussions took place regarding “military-technical cooperation” issues, the ITAR-TASS news agency reported Monday. This was in response to an earlier report by China’s CCTV on the same day.
“The Kremlin is officially denying even discussing arms trade during Xi’s visit,” said Vasiliy Kashin, a China military specialist at the Moscow-based Centre for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies (CAST). “In Russia-China relations, specific arms trade contracts are almost never discussed by the top leaders, just the general approaches.”
Another defense industry source in Russia said there are strong reservations about going forward on the memorandum of understanding signed in December to explore the sale of the twin-engine Su-35s and Amur submarines to China.
China intentionally violated intellectual property right (IPR) agreements when it copied and manufactured Russia’s Su-27 fighter as the J-11B, according to Russia.
In 1995, China secured a production deal with Russia to build 200 Su-27SKs, dubbed the J-11A, for $2.5 billion for the Shenyang Aircraft Corp. In 2006, Russia canceled the deal after 95 aircraft when it discovered China had reverse-engineered the fighter and was secretly manufacturing an indigenous copy, the J-11B, with Chinese-made avionics and engines.
There are strong suspicions China will procure the technological know-how of the Su-35 and Amur and simply produce an indigenous version.
But not all agree. Gary Li, a senior analyst at London-based IHS Fairplay, said China’s research and development have moved forward.
“It no longer will seek to directly reverse engineer everything it buys, but maybe adopt parts of the platform for other projects [and] integrate into domestic designs,” he said.
There also are concerns China wants access to the Su-35’s Saturn AL-117S engine, which is outfitted on the T-50, a prototype of Russia’s fifth-generation Sukhoi PAK FA stealth fighter.
However, Kashin said the risks of selling the Russian engine to China are negligible.
“An engine cannot be copied by obtaining a sample,” he said.
Li said he could envision Chinese aerospace engineers studying the aircraft’s engine and thrust-vectoring for future inclusion, as well as the Amur sub’s air-independent propulsion, but it will still be more than a decade before China will stop having to order engines to replace “worn-out ones,” as it has been doing with the J-11 and J-10 fighters.
“It always takes a few years before they can make a domestic alternative,” Li said.
Kashin cautions that a Chinese attempt to copy the Su-35, as they did with the Su-27, would be more difficult, “because this time, our Ukrainian ‘brothers’ cannot help them by selling the Chinese all the technology they lacked for a handful of dollars. I think the Amur situation will be generally the same.”
Ukraine has been accused of selling China former Soviet defense technologies, but it has no access to information regarding newer systems, such as the Su-35 and Amur.
“The Amur ultimately isn’t a strategic submarine, and as Russia’s interests in the Far East are not yet that ambitious, they can afford to sell them to China,” Li said. “How better to keep the U.S. pivot off their backs?”
i do know that the 99% junks are nightmare of many enemies,haha,calm down.you need to think twice before speakYou do recognise how much of the left over 99% is the submation of hundreds of 3rd generation junks that barely fly ?
Is it worth being jealous of ?
By spreading these rumours Indians just want to prove that Chinese own fighter jets are inferior, therefore China is going for 24 Russian birds, but same logic is not applicable when Bharut opts for 126 Rafales despite having super-duper MKI's.....

Cant reason with your own twisted logic now cant you.......look around this is like a gazillionth thread created by a bhaarti to further the delusional subjectivity over some thing which isnt even officially confirmed by the concerned parties. PAF doesnt need EF's to counter the junk from the eastern side....our Jf-17 and F-16s are sufficient to keep IAF on a tight leash.Now this is indeed being jealous ..... damn.. nobody is spreading rumours that Pakistan is buying 48 F-16s or 36 Eurofighters.
(off course, Pakistan doesn't need them.. its buying them only for political reasons. )
We need to give more news space to Pakistan.. for sure.
Sorry, nothing is comfirmed. The CCTV just recycle the rumour float around the net. Kremlin has denied any of this deal. Rosoboronexport has not make any statement. Same as MOD of China. You can check out their website. If any deal is signed, they are the official spokesmen to announce the news.
