Remarks:

Prototype of export version of Sukhoi Su-30SM was ready in September 2021 (unpainted with red number 001). Second 002 aircraft also unpainted.
Two aircraft delivered in 2022 were oficially inducted to Myanmar air force 15th December 2022, during celebration of 75th anniversary of MAF. Officially it's a brand new 1904 and 1905, but it raise a question: what with 001 and 002?
Two aircraft delivered in 2023 were oficially commissioned into service 15th December 2023, during celebration of 76th anniversary of the establishment of Tatmadaw Lay, in Nay Pyi Taw airbase: 1906 and 1907.
Two aircraft delivered in 2024 were commissioned into service 15th December 2024 during celebration of 77th anniversary at the Aviation School in Meiktila airbase, Mandalay. Probably it's the "old" 001 and 002.
Lasts of six ordered aircraft were officially introduced to Myanmar Air Force, during a ceremony held in Meiktila airbase, with numers 1901 and 1902. In my opinion, it's a complete mess. Also two Chinese aircraft K-8W were conducted.
One big question: why there's no aircraft no. 1903?
