How does he not get caught in his own jetwash?

Jet wash disrupts airflow across the wing surfaces which reduces lift. This plane isn't flying so much as it is being propelled around by thrust. There is no lift going on when the airflow is not there on the wings. You can't disrupt lift if you effectively have none. The jet wash has no effect here.

SU-35 - just a few rubles. They are cheap because there are no patents, shareholders, and kickbacks to Congress to pay.
