For the Malaysian deal, Irkut was the main contractor, but canards, stabilizers and fins were manufactured by India’s HAL Nasik under a $25-30 million value subcontract, and India plays a role in helping the RMAF to maintain their fleet. The main difference between the MKI and MKM versions is the replacement of Indian and Israeli avionics, ECM (electronic counter-measures), and LITENING pods with Russian, French and South African equipment. This includes original Russian equipment, Thales of France’s HUD, NAVFLIR, and Damocles surveillance and targeting pod; Avitronics South Africa missile approach warning sensors and laser warning sensors. India’s SU-30MKI Mk3 is also be equipped with an on-board mechanical health-and-usage monitoring system (HUMS) from South Africa’s Aerospace Monitoring And Systems (Pty) Ltd (AMS), but there is no announced word on whether the Malaysian SU-30MKMs are equipped with a similar system

Do you have any source stating that the MiG-31 can fly at “2000 km/h+” without using reheat?
The supersonic cruising speed of the MiG-31 is 2500 km / h.
The engine operates in the “minimum afterburner” mode. The flight range is 1249 – 1300 km, the flight time is 43 – 45 minutes. Probably after the launch of the missiles the plane flies at subsonic speed.
Let’s simplify the task? NATO is expanding to the East? Perfectly! Then Russia is expanding to the West!
Step 1
Putting things in order in Ukraine. At the request of the lawful president, Yanukovych, troops are being introduced (permission has already been received). The junta is overthrown. 50% of the population will support, do not hesitate.
The trial of Nazis and war criminals in Donetsk. Execution through hanging in Lviv.
Ukraine is divided into Donetsk region, Lugansk region, Odessa region and Kiev region. The name “Ukraine” is never mentioned again.
Now this is the territory of the Russian Federation
Step 2
Operation “Baltia”. The revival of historical justice, the return of illegally lost territories of the Russian Empire.
The strike with misales “Caliber” and “Iskander” along the runways of the airfields in Finland (Rovaniemi, Tammerfors, Kallavesi). The conquest of superiority in the air (Su-35). Raid to military facilities (Su-34). Disembarkation of the Baltic Fleet assault in Helsinki (large landing ships + air-cushion ships, destroyer pr.956 and corvettes, pr. 20380)
Simultaneous entry of troops into the territory of Finland, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.
Step 3
The solution of the issue of the Black Sea straits.
On this expansion to the West ends
What else do You need?
Do you yourself generate all this garbage or who helps? I’m just amazed!
I heard that if an “army of another country” has come to you, then most likely your country’s territory can dramatically decrease. Regardless of what she promised you.
If you do not want to feed your army, then you will feed someone else’s.
What size should the armed forces be? Let’s say the army of Finland is zero, what will happen? The second option, the army of Finland – the entire population of the country, “armed to the teeth,” what will change?
Is this meant to be satirical? Jews are cunning..?
Perhaps this word is more accurate: Jews – tricky
Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania have good reason to worry about Russia.
Latvia and Estonia can not worry. Lithuania is a very interesting place for Russia, this is the only land route to Kaliningrad.
Putin created chaos in Ukraine. All he needed to do was to tell the Ukraine people in the east of the country to vote for re-unification with Russia before doing this and many, many lives could have been saved. It was clear that the majority of the people in the east of the Ukraine would have voted for re-unification with Russia and this could have happened in a peaceful way if Putin had been a responsible leader
Indeed, Putin is omnipresent as God! 🙂 I saw that a coup in Kiev was staged by neo-Nazis and a few naive romantics.
Novorossiya voted for reunification with Russia on April 27, 2014 and May 11, 2014. Why should not Ukraine stop killing civilians?
Do you understand why Russia did not accept Novorossiya, South Ossetia and Abkhazia?
Maybe it is not a coincidence that Sweden has conquered Moscow,
but Russia has not conquered Stockholm, LOL.
Maybe Russia is not as aggressive as you used to think? 😉
Based on Your ridiculous way of comparision, Egypts potential is 522 times that of Israel.
Egypt still is beaten
There is another factor. Let it be called “fighting spirit”.
German officers during the Second World War estimated it as follows:
1. Russian
2. Germans
3. Englishmen
4. Americans
Everyone knows that Arabs are bad soldiers. And the Jews are cunning and clever
Not quite
Interesting :eagerness:
Not threatened by Soviets? Whose tanks were those on the streets of Prague, then? You know, the ones with Red Army markings & Russian-speaking crews?
On the night of August 21, 1968, troops of five Warsaw Pact countries (the USSR, Bulgaria, Hungary, the GDR and Poland) were introduced into Czechoslovakia. The operation, codenamed “Danube”, was aimed at ending the process of reforms that took place in the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic, initiated by the first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, Alexander Dubcek, – “Prague Spring”.
As far as I know, Russians were forbidden to shoot (only for self-defense purposes). All the “dirty work” was done by the troops of the German Democratic Republic.
Potential of possible adversaries (area of the territory * population):
Finland 1.0
Sweden 2.38
Russia 1336
Gross domestic product
Finland 1.0
Sweden 2.16
Russia 20.1
The Air Force, the number of combat aircraft
Finland 1.0 (126 pcs.)
Sweden 2.23 (281)
Russia 10.7 (1348 pcs.)
F/A-18C/D surpass JAS-39 by 20% in total combat effectiveness.
F/A-18E/F surpass JAS-39 by 85% in total combat effectiveness.
To equalize the chances in the air war Sweden-Finland, the latter requires 70 F/A-18E/F or 33 F-35A
To fight with Russia is senseless
He said: “This Lightweight MultiFunctional Aircraft (LMFS)…”
I do not think that the Arabs will finance the development of a new engine. There are izd.117 and izd.30, but they are for light single-engine aircraft.
