Hmm how about SU-22,32,33 for example?
Su-22 is an export-only version of the Su-17, you should find it in several OOBs such as Poland, Syria, Angola, Libya, GDR, to name a few.

The Su-32/34 is another matter, since it is apparently used in the game but under the name Su-30. Given the picture, icon and loadout I guess that they are meant to be SU-32s or 34s, but designations are still quite clouded IRL. The Su-30 is a multirole fighter as well, so could be featured in the game, but it uses the tandem-two-seater configuration rather than the side-by-side one, and has apparently not been fielded in Russia.

And from what I can tell, the Su-33 aka Su-27K, made a short carreer in small quantities (24 ordered) as carrier-borne fighter on the Kuznetsov.
