Is it the same Su-34 which superpower Turkey destroyed?

It's not a pod. It's fuselage mounted, like on F-117 and F-35. So they don't use up hardpoints carrying pods.
Look at the third pics your post its clearly a pod, or may be combination of both but it not a true ETOS like F-35 have @minimi

Platan has no pod as seen in the first picture.
believe it or not its FLIR SYSTEM WITH POD NOT ETOS SYSTEM, EVEN F-111 HAS A FLIR SYSTEM AND AMERICAN CAN'T USE THE TERM ETOS FOR F-111, ETOS COMBINE BOTH SYSTEM IRST+FLIR WHICH ETOS WORK IN BOTH FIGHTS (AIR TO AIR//AIR TO GROUND), AND FLIR WORK IN ONLY ONE SITUATION (AIR TO GROUND) @minimi

EOTS just means electro optical targeting system. It can be fuselage mounted like on Su-24, Su-25, F-117, Su-34, F-35 or it can be a pod. Pod takes up a hardpoint so reduces payload.

why you're so dump, i already explain you ETOS for both air to air and air to ground fights, its FLIR SYSTEM on Su-34 or in any previous strike jet, does Su-24/Su-25/F-117/Su-34 has a long rang air intercept capability, The ANSWER is BIG NO, on Su-34 its FLIR system MAINLY INTENDED FOR GROUND ATTACK NOT FOR LONG RANGE AIR INTERCEPT and KEEP YOUR SELF CREATED TERM BY YOURSELF @minimi :blah::blah::blah::blah:
