Again it makes no sense Russia downed it.USA seems to have downed superjet in response to the loss of the RQ-170 stealth drone that russia helped iran bring down.
Superjet is a commercial plane not stealth.

How does that make no sense in reference to the theories I proposed? Seriously, you need to explicitly state. How does this make sense for the US to down a plane in the midst of an international test flight...by crashing it into a freaking mountain. They could have done ANYTHING! Messed with the fuel lines. Messed with the wheels. There are a million things you could do, and prevent take-off without showing your hand, and making it look like an engineering/manufacturing defect and manufacturer incompetency, thereby defuncting the mass amount of money pouring into the Russian space program. There are a million things that you could do that would make the plane appear to perform poorly and thus reduce the Russian aerospace into ash. If the goal is to discourage Russian aerospace engineering, then why would the US make it OBVIOUS that they forcibly did it? Why would the Russian's admit that they let the US do it?! It makes no sense. Since the Russians are the most forward with the finger pointing rather than the damage control, it makes them pretty likely suspects for being behind this.

There may be industrial competition.
Based on past aggressive competitive commercial tactics employed by the alliance of American corporations, the U.S. Intelligence Community, and the Pentagon, aviation experts in Asia are wondering aloud whether the recent crash of the new Sukhoi Super Jet 100 in Indonesia was the result of high-stakes industrial sabotage engineered to protect Boeing’s lucrative commercial and military aviation market in Asia at the expense of a resurgent Russian aviation industry…
Special military forces nearby ?
Halim is where U.S. Special Forces troops have been training their Indonesian counterparts in various air force tactics, possibly including meaconing, intrusion, jamming, and interference (MIJI) electronic warfare tactics designed to interfere with aircraft navigation systems. Some of the training occurs every year as part of the EXERCISE COPE WEST, sponsored the Commander of the U.S. Pacific Command in Hawaii. Last year's exercise, COPE WEST 10, concentrated on simulated military operations against the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Air Force, which uses fighter jets designed and licensed by Sukhoi, including the Sukhoi 27 and Sukhoi 30.
Obama connection ?
On his last visit to Indonesia, President Obama inked a deal with Indonesia's Lion Air to sell 230 Boeing aircraft with a $22 billion loan guarantee from the U.S. Export-Bank (EX-IM Bank). Obama said the deal to supply Boeing aircraft to Lion Air would create 110,000 U.S. jobs. However, Sukhoi's entrance into the lucrative Indonesian commercial aviation market, which now has a number of competitors to the partly state-owned and safety record-plagued Garuda Indonesian Airlines, represented a threat to Boeing's business in the country and the Boeing deal worked out by Obama.
Was Industrial Sabotage at Play with Super Jet crash in Indonesia?
