The M-346 is a different aircraft, internally and externally. The wing was moved up the fuselage, having been too low on the Yak-130 and causing horizontal stabiliser blanking at mid to high angle of attack (AoA). The leading-edge extensions (LEX) were reduced and redesigned to give a controllable vortex lift. Two small vertical fins were added at the wing roots to "trap" and control the LEX vortices at AoAs from 25-30° upwards. These LEX vortex controllers ensure the "vortex burst" over the wing at high AoA is symmetrical and controllable. The wing was remodelled to blend into the fuselage for improved span loading. Thickness was optimised from root to tip, and planform, profile and camber were optimised for best lift/drag over the widest possible envelope from short field and subsonic manoeuvre. Obviously avionics are totally different.
This comparison make no sense one have a basic trainer purpose.. M 346 is developed for combat, and probably cost 2 or 3 times more. Update: Yak130 basic cost 7 mil M-346 min cost 20 mil...
No, it is not developed for combat, it also has a combat version, but it is only an upgrade. However it is a completely different aircraft, because the original model developed with russians had a huge amount of problems and defects.
Tge Yak cost way less cause it not have the tech for advanced training purposes the M346 have. Aermacchi and Yakovlev split their way due the crisis Yakovlev was having with Russia giving no funds for the plane development. So the Italians goes their way and heavily invested in the M346 that have even a system of simulated combat in it. The plane can simulate training war scenarios without having any enemy or friendly plane fliying for real, but just simulating them inside the cockpit. That's why it cost 20 millions and not 7

Why don't you add the price of each jet , with or without all the goodies, so that they can be a real comparsent
