Foreign customers display high interest in the export version of Russia’s Su-57E fifth-generation fighter, Rostec Director for International Cooperation and Regional Policy Viktor Kladov told TASS on Monday.

The full-size model of the Su-57E fighter will be demonstrated at the Aero India 2021 aerospace show that will run in the Indian city of Bangalore on February 3-5, he specified.

"If we speak about the Su-57E, this aircraft evokes high interest in many countries because it features unique combat properties and flight characteristics. We see that there is the need for next-generation aircraft and there are both a market niche and pre-requisites for the delivery of this plane," Kladov said.

The Rostec executive also noted the high export potential of Russia’s upgraded Mi-28NM combat helicopter.

"I am confident that foreign customers’ interest will be very high when this modification appears on export markets," he said.

The upgraded helicopter features the best flight characteristics in this class, the Rostec executive said.
