D'ailleurs si un jour qqun peut m'expliquer la couleur jaune nauséeuse typique de ce qui sort de ses tuyères, je suis preneur!

In older engines, it has to do with inefficient combustion, thus giving a blackish smoke trail and as Bob Keeter pointed out here, american engines used to smoke a lot worse than russian ones back in the day. If you are talking about todays orangish smoking engines from Russian engines, it is because they add nitrogen to the fuel mixture for increasing range slightly, but more to better protect the engines (as nitrogen cleans up carbon build up in engines). This prolongs the engines life. If in a real combat with a good adversary like the US, the Russians will obviously not use nitrogen and keep the engines smokeless. But for training purposes or fighting shitty nations in ME, better use nitrogen and prolong engine life even if it mean giving off a slight orangish smoke trail.
