Not only India: the Russian Federation wants to attract the Middle East for the production of SU-75 fighter fighters

Russia will try to regain confidence in the Gulf countries after failure in the war against Ukraine. According to analysts, such cooperation is possible due to the inaccessibility of American technologies. At the IDEX 2023 weapons exhibition in the United Arab Emirates of the Russian Federation plans to attract the Middle East for the production of 5 generation fighters. About it reports Breaking Defense.

Russian defense companies plan to participate in the international exhibition to find new customers to their aviation or to establish a joint production of "high -tech platforms". In Rossoboronexports, they plan to cooperate not only in the manufacture of SU-75 Checkmate, but also in air defense complexes equipped for the Marine Fleet, as well as in service for land troops.

It is noted that Russia is not a participant in the exhibition, but they will have a separate pavilion, where the defense-industrial complex will provide its weapon. The researcher of the Baker Institute at the University of the Middle East University Christian Ulrichsen believes that the IDEX 2023 will become indicative. "The bad work of many Russian systems in the war against Ukraine has undermined the trust of the international community in Russia as a supplier of weapons.

Participation in IDEX can be a way to try to restore part of the impulse lost over the last year, especially in the regional markets of the Middle East, Asia and Africa, which also The focus of Russian commercial and diplomatic activity in recent months has been in the spotlight, "Ulrichsen said. For the countries of the Middle East of the Russian Federation, it may be interesting because the F-35 fighter is not available for them. Production lines are busy for years ahead.
