The results of the Russian military-technical cooperation in 2015 and plans for the future

According to Ivan Safronov in "mass acquisition of Weapons," published in today's issue of "Kommersant" newspaper, March 29, Vladimir Putin said that Russia has sold weapons in 2015 to $ 14.5 billion, while the order book reached a record value since 1992 - $ 56 billion. The main supplies have fallen to such traditional partners of Russia, India and Iraq. According to "Kommersant", in 2016 special attention will be paid to Algeria, which is ready to buy the Su-32 bombers and air defense system "Antey-2500", as well as the implementation of the already signed contracts with Egypt and China.


The first 2016 meeting of the military-technical cooperation commission took an entire program (see. P. 3) has been planned in Nizhny Novgorod, where Mr. Putin. In his opening remarks, the President stated: Arms exports by the end of 2015 amounted to $ 14.5 billion, which allowed Russia to retain second place in the world in terms of products delivered. "The possibilities of our equipment and weapons were shown in a combat situation, in the fight against the terrorist threat", - said Vladimir Putin. He added that the order book "for the first time since 1992" reached the level of $ 56 billion (due in 2015 signed new contracts worth over $ 26 billion). Delivery of weapons and equipment were conducted in 58 countries of the world, but among the main partners of Russia in the sphere of military-technical cooperation called India, Iraq, Vietnam, China and Algeria.

According to the source "b" in the sphere of military-technical cooperation, these countries have formed a profit in 2015. For example, India has shipped 12 sets for the assembly of Su-30MKI fighters, 23 Mi-17V-5, the party aircraft engines AL-31FP and RD-33, as well as the modernization of diesel-electric submarines of Project 877 Sindhukitri, and six helicopters Ka- 31, and other types of weapons and military equipment (all together - at least $ 4 billion). In Iraq supplied equipment contracts in 2013: Mi-35M, Mi-28NE and Mi-171SH, anti-aircraft missile and gun complexes "Pantsyr-S1", heavy flamethrower system TOS-1A, T-72B (over $ 1 billion).
Vietnam won two diesel-electric submarines of the project 06361 "Warszawianka" four fighters Su-30MK2 and means of destruction to them (for a total of about $ 1 billion).
Algeria have shipped six Mi-26T2, party ZRPK "Pantsyr-S1", the tanks T-90SA and started to modernize their infantry fighting vehicles to variant (about $ 800 million) of BMP-2M.
China this year was limited to only the party Ka-32 helicopters and aircraft engines D-30KP2.
In addition, Egypt has signed with Russia a large block of contracts (at least $ 5 billion), which includes the delivery of MiG-29M air defense systems of the "Buk-M2E" and "Antey-2500", as well as 46 helicopters Ka-52, this year the agreement will continue to be carried out.

Played a role and said Putin agreements with the CIS countries: for example, Azerbaijan was transferred to Party T-90S tanks, infantry fighting vehicles BMP-3, Mi-17B-1, and also closed a contract to supply 18 units of TOS-1A (not less than $ 600 million).
Of CSTO commercial deliveries were only in Belarus (its Air Force received four combat-capable trainer aircraft Yak-130) and Kazakhstan (four Su-30cm), but only their very fact of the interlocutors "b" is called the "great success" Let it small - about $ 500 million - but still "real money, rather than the delivery free of charge".
Free Russian equipment from the presence of the Defense Ministry was delivered to Belarus (four divisions of anti-aircraft missile systems S-300PS), Kazakhstan (five divisions of such systems) and Kyrgyzstan (ten BTR-70M).
According to sources, "b", in the past year "Rosoboronexport" is facing not only tough competition in the market and increased customer requirements, but also with the fall of revenues from traditional buyers - primarily because of cheap oil. Nevertheless, this did not prevent Algeria to sign a contract for the purchase of 40 Mi-28NE, to send to Moscow a request to purchase a squadron bombers Su-32, as well as experience on its flight range and specifications of the Su-35 fighter. In addition, according to "Kommersant", negotiations for the purchase of several battalions "Antey-2500".

Great expectations interlocutors "b" associated in 2016 with China and India. Two consecutive years, Beijing became the launch customer for Russian innovations: in September 2014 he bought the first four divisions of anti-aircraft missile systems S-400 "Triumph" ($ 1.9 billion), and in November 2015 - the first signed contract for 24 Su-35 ($ 2 billion). From Delhi, in particular, is negotiating the purchase of two submarines of Project 636 and is admitted yesterday the deputy director of the Federal Service for military-technical cooperation Vladimir yeast leasing in the Russian Federation of the second nuclear submarine ( "Kommersant" wrote about it March 24).

Intensify negotiations with Saudi Arabia: Riyadh is interested in systems S-400, and operational-tactical missile complexes "Iskander-E". Illusions sources "b" do not feed, and predicted "difficult negotiations with non-obvious outcome."

Removing the embargo on the supply of S-300 to Iran and the signing of the contract in 2015 helped to stabilize relations between the two countries, however, the conclusion of transactions hinder Tehran's desire to get a weapon in a loan and the sanctions the UN Security Council.
According to "Kommersant", at yesterday's meeting was not without its critics. In particular, Vladimir Putin drew attention to the contract in 2011 for the purchase from France of two helicopter the Mistral, which was drawn up at an extremely unfavorable for the Russian conditions (the French could terminate the contract on the basis of the government's decision and by the court Moscow would receive no more than 20% of the billion contract). The second question concerned the technical problems with the implementation of the contract - in particular, the supply of Azerbaijan BTR-82A.

Is a Secret Deal Underway for Russia's 1,616MPH Supersonic MIG-29M?

Reports indicate that Russia has produced as many as 46 new supersonic MiG-29M fighter jets with rumors that a buyer has been lined up for a $2 billion warplane contract.

The International Business Times reports that Russia has undertaken a flurry of MiG-29M fighter jet construction producing as many as 46 new supersonic aircraft leading to speculation that a secretive deal to sell the 1616MPH (2600kmh) warplanes.

Moscow has provided no official confirmation about which country, if any, has signed a contract to acquire the fighter jet that analysts estimate is worth upwards of $2 billion although qualified speculation suggests that the purchaser may be the Egyptian government.

The belief that the Egyptian government of President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi is the buyer is predicated upon an Egyptian media report that the country’s minister of military production traveled to Moscow in March to discuss military cooperation. Russia has also looked in recent years to China, India, and Iran as potential markets for its military hardware.

Analysts believe that conducting a deal for the 46 supersonic aircraft with Iran is unlikely given that the deal would likely fall victim to a veto by members of the United Nations Security Council under the terms of last year’s Iran nuclear deal.

Analysts are downplaying the possibility, but India may be an equally likely partner in light of the two country’s cooperation in the Sukhoi/HAL FGFA fifth-generationT-50 fighter jet program and may make sense as New Delhi looks to patch a capability gap vis-à-vis China until the fifth generation fighter goes into serial production in 2017.Given the short wait until the T-50 becomes combat ready, the purchase of an entire 46 aircraft fleet may be excessive even in an increasingly tense region.

Beijing seems to be the least likely trade partner for the MIG-29M in light of reports of new J-20 fighter jets surfacing over the skies of China signaling that the warplane program is nearing a critical phase before mass production.

Ultimately, the sale of 46 MiG fighter jets would be a boon for Russia’s military aviation industry. The once iconic MiG aircraft company, now known as Mikoyan, has been hit since the 1990s with lost deals and production slowdowns falling behind Russia’s other major aircraft manufacturer Sukhoi.

The rumors of a major fighter jet deal are also in keeping with a statement from Russian President Vladimir Putin earlier this month that Moscow would look to increase military exports in the coming years.

"The exports of Russian-made weapons and military equipment have reached $4.6 billion, and our contract portfolio is worth more than $50 billion," said Putin in early July. "Russian weapons and military equipment have proven efficient and reliable in vastly different conditions."

As I said in the article, this is the 46 for Egypt. And Sputnik said this long ago. This article is stupid. Unless a new deal and this is different from the Egypt deal. And mentioned many months ago.

Russia's Report to the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms for 2016

According to the information provided there, Russia formally declared delivery in 2016 for export of the following weapons, which are accounted for by the UN Register. As usual, types of weapons and equipment in the Russian report are not indicated, therefore, where possible, the relevant notes are made by us.

The bmpd comment. It is easy to see that every year the Russian reports to the UN Register suffer more and more incompleteness and a significant part of the supplies in them are not included. As a result, the Russian report for 2016 finally turned into semi-active. It is completely absent, for example, the supply of equipment and weapons to Iraq, not to mention Syria. The supplies to Algeria, where in 2016, T-90SA tanks, Su-30MKI (A) fighters (eight units) and Mi-28NE combat helicopters (six units) were shipped, are not indicated, and apparently the same "embargo" is imposed On the mention of supplies to Egypt (received a missile boat P-32).

However, no more "innocent" supplies have been indicated, such as the supply of upgraded T-72B1 tanks to Nicaragua and un-modernized T-72B1 to Uganda, T-90S tanks to Azerbaijan, armored vehicles to the CIS countries (Belarus, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan), and others .

It is designed to destroy aircraft, cruise and ballistic missiles, including medium-range ones, and can also be used against ground objectives. The S-400 complex can engage targets at a distance of 400 km and at an altitude of up to 30 km.
