I never said it arbitrarily banned weapons with ranges > 300km, but the C803 would fall under that category. But like I said before, China never signed the MTCR, so theoretically, it wouldn’t matter.
Well, you could also argue that since China never signed the MTCR, she wouldn’t fall under its purview. Sure, those are suggested guidelines, but most signators follow those rules in major arms packages. Although this does have its exceptions.
No, but the aforementioned C-803 would fall under Category I of the MTCR and thus its sale would be prohibited, if both CHina and Pakistan are signators.

hn-4? That’s a new one.
Why are you posting that? Stick to the subject on civilian rockets and Mars.
Who wants to go to Mars anyhow? First the Beagle 2 crashed or the like, and now the Spirit is broken.
Isn’t Rosoboronexport a subsidiary of the government, or some sort of governmental arm? I wouldn’t expect Sukhoi or the factories to get all the profit.
Yes, but these defense sales are big enough that I’d imagine the RuAF gets at least millions.
But didn’t the Russians make billions off of the arms sales to China and India? Where is all that money going? To line people’s pockets?
meh.
Very nice pictures.
One question though- the aircraft are just parked in open hangars? What about environmental effects?
The previous Yak cockpit was pretty obsolete looking…
Here are my guesses- since there are 3 MFDs, that must be the export Yak; the Yak-130UBS is for the RuAF only with two smaller 5.1 in square MFDs.
That looks like the pre-production Yak actually.
three 152 × 203 mm; 6 × 8 in Elektroavtomatika MFDs
No idea who makes the HUD, but the primary supplier of avionics for the pre-prod. craft was Leninets.
Hmm, sounds like hamburglar wanted us to ID the avionics, not the plane. That’s a bit harder..
