Exactly... The stake is very high for Russia since it is hard to believe Pakistan will ever outpace India regarding military acquisitions. What I do believe is that depending on the kind of acquisitions Pakistan is willing to make, in an act of goodwill the Indian Government may not oppose...

It is always a pleasure to see these birds flying together.

Thank you for the additional info. In our case, we paid a bit less than US$ 35 mil, each. But these are almost the only Russian equipment we operate. We have few others, but not substantially. Recently we bought few batteries of Igla-S shoulder-held missiles and we are interested in acquiring...

Or maybe the Indians are waiting to see how far the Russians can go with this... India is the world's leading importer of weapons, while the United States and Russia are responsible for about half of the globe's arms exports. I’m sure India will have the final call in this matter. In 2009 India...

I've heard they to a good job refurbishing Mi-24 old models.
