Nice pics..........
The middle Su-27UBK has 'Sorbitsya' ESM pods on the wingtip launch rails.

These UBKs belong to PLAAF 33rd Div stationed in Southwest China near Chongqing. The bolt numbers (5x-7x?) on the tail have been erased.

A few Flankers' turn to steal the limelight off the J-10 for a while. These are some of the best PLAAF SU-27UBK shots I've seen. There seems to be digital erasure on the bort numbers in their tail, an increasingly common practice with recently released PLAAF SU-27 pictures, as well as the lack of a bort number under the canopy, an increasingly common practice among newer received SU's in the PLAAF.
Other than the tail tips, the UBKs are externally different from the MKKs by the single nose wheel, while the MKK has dual nose wheels.
