3월 18일 알제리 아드라르에서 Su-30이 추락해 파일럿이 사망했다고 합니다. 미확인 보도로는 최근 도입된 Su-35라는 얘기도 있네요.
도시 근교에 공항이나 공군기지가 안 보이는데 이착륙 중이 아니라 비행중 추락인 듯 하네요.

An Algerian Su-30 fighter jet has crashed in the country’s Adrar province, resulting in the death of the pilot, according to local reports.
The incident occurred on March 18, and footage shared on social media shows a large column of smoke rising from the crash site.
While official sources have identified the aircraft as a Su-30, some reports suggest that the crashed jet may have been a newly acquired single-seat Su-35, a model that Algeria recently received from Russia. This claim has not been independently verified, and no official confirmation has been provided by Algerian authorities.
Algeria has been modernizing its air force, and reports of Su-35 acquisitions have circulated in recent months. A video previously posted by the user “Algerian Star Ship” showed what appeared to be an Su-35 flying over Algeria, further fueling speculation about its introduction into the country’s fleet.
Despite this, no conclusive evidence has emerged confirming that the crashed jet was an Su-35 rather than a Su-30.

The Algerian military has yet to release an official statement clarifying the exact model of the downed aircraft or the circumstances leading to the crash.
Investigations into the incident are reportedly underway.
