Dear Members of Mathoverflow,

I am interested about a Fact (if it is right) of the structure of parabolic subgroups of finite classical algebraic groups:

Let G$G$ be a classical algebraic group over the finite field of order $r^{e}$, and let $ P \leq G $$P \leq G$ denote a maximal parabolic subgroup of G$G$.

We regard the unipotent radical of P: $ R:=R_{U}(P) = O_{r}(P) $$P$ by $ R:=R_{U}(P) = O_{r}(P)$. Is it true, that R$R$ is a minimal normal subgroup of P$P$? (For P$P$ being a parabolic subgroup which is not a maximal in G$G$, it is not true. If we regard the PSL(3 For example,$r^{e}$) let $G:=\operatorname{PSL}(3,r^{e})$ and take as $P$ a Borel subgroup.)

IfIs it is rightcorrect for the maximal parabolicparabolic subgroups of G, are$G$? Are there any Theorems or Propositions about that?

Thank you much for your Answers.
