Why Did Russia's MiG-35 Program Fail With Only 6 Produced For An Aerobatic Team?

The MiG-35 is an upgraded MiG-29 family fighter jet that Russia has marketed as a 4.5++ generation aircraft. It would seem no other country shared that assessment, as Russia failed to sell a single jet. Writing in 2020, the War Zone stated that Russia's MiG-35 was "starting to look like a dead duck." Four years on, there have not been any developments to challenge that assessment.
