The Su has a pull-through fuction on the fbw ISTR. Might be a factor?


Probably not since the the F-15C isn't FBW and only has an overload
warning function. You can over G a F-15C.

Actually fly-by-wire aircraft can be over-Gd -- it happens to F-16s all the
time.

The F-15, while not "fully" fly-by-wire, has a primary flight control system
that is FBW (called the CAS, or Control Augmentation System) and a
hydromechanical backup system.
