Russia and Vietnam signed contract for delivery of 12 Su-30MK2 fighters, Lenta.ru reports.

The agreement was reached in mid-August 2013. It is the third contract for delivery of “Su” fighters to Vietnam. The previous two ones have already been implemented.

The amount of this contract was not unveiled, but some sources assess it at $600 million. The fighters will be delivered to the customer in 2014 and 2015. A total of 24 Su-30MK2 fighters have already been delivered to Vietnam during the period since 2004.

The negotiations on delivery of a new batch of Su-30MK2 fighters to Vietnam were being conducted since 2010. It was reported earlier that the Asian country was going to purchase 20 jets of the type. The dates for signing the agreement and start of deliveries have not been specified. Vietnam has purchased 12 Su-30MK2 fighters earlier. The deliveries have been completed in 2012.

  Light combat Yak-130M
  The presentation of the Ya-130M aircraft took place at the international military-technical forum "Army-2024", which was held from August 12 to 14, 2024 at the Patriot Convention and Exhibition Center. It should be noted right away that this is not just the modernization of the Yak-130 aircraft, but the transformation of a combat training aircraft into a full-fledged light combat aircraft. In the information field, this event was marked by a number of brief reports from federal news agencies. But the project, like the Yak-130 aircraft with its unique flight characteristics, deserves a more detailed review, which we decided to do.
