Photos of mock-ups of Russian "4++" generation Su-35S fighters, presumably intended for the Iranian Air Force (IRIAF), have appeared online. A former pilot and author of the Telegram channel Fighterbomber drew attention to the exclusive coloring of one of the aircraft.
The photo shows a scaled-down copy of the Su-35S in brown with elements of gray. According to Fighterbomber, combat aircraft may be transferred to the Iranian side in this color scheme.
As I understand it, one of the color options for the Su-35S for the Iranian Air Force.
