The german "FLIEGERREVUE" wrote in 09/2005 (print) an article about the airfight manoever "Garuda II".
"A team of Six Sukhoi fighters backed by two IL-78 mid air refuellers was part in the joint Indo-French fighter exercises", Air Vice Marshal S C Mukul said in New Delhi.
According to the article a french Mirage-pilot sad after the dogfights: "God, this monster (SU 30) is agile; if you don't kill them at the first shoot, you'll never have the next chance".
Didn't the PLAAF and PLAN (SU-30) vrs. Taiwan (Mirage 2000) have the same type of aircrafts?
