Su 30 is expensive but we need at least 18 Multi Role fighters.
ToT should be considered only if you are intended to mass produce.
As MAF requirements are just 18-24 JF 17, ToT is not an optimal choice.
With current budget MAF cannot maitain a large airforce.
60-70 fighters with 80% serviceability rate is the MAF's aim.

But apart from SU-30, JF-17 and Mig 29 you don't have other good fighters. MAF have A5C Fantan and J6 which are old Chinese trash.

Myanmar can buy SU-35 instead of SU-30. I think the price is almost same.

Small arms and gears are needed to be upgraded. Heavy weapons are of no use if the soldiers fighting in the frontline can't do anything.
