I’m sure they had 1st rate Russian equipment - if they know how to use or maintain it is another matter.

Don’t forget from our side
ALQ-131, ALQ-213, ALQ-99 (oldie but goodie), ALQ-184 and onboard systems galore. Add to those AGM-88 and other SARM/HARM and you pretty much control what gets seen.

RADAR on a modern battlefield = bullet magnet
