The Sukhoi-30MKI is a twin cockpit multi-role all-weather fighter aircraft and option 1 is correct. This means that the aircraft has two seats, allowing for a pilot and a co-pilot or weapon systems officer.

Option 2 is also correct, as the Sukhoi-30MKI is equipped with air-to-air refueling capability. This means that it can receive fuel mid-flight from tanker aircraft, allowing for extended range and endurance during missions.

However, option 3 is incorrect. The Sukhoi-30MKI is not manufactured by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) in Nasik. It is actually manufactured by HAL in Nasik and Russia`s Sukhoi Corporation.
