This is a tough question because government are dumb and do not use logic to select the best option. They select the deal with the best offsets or kickbacks so my guess.

Swiss: Purchase pushed back a couple of years and then F-35
India: Mig-35 so Russia can keep on screwing them over and over and over.
Brazil: FX canceled and more 2nd hand Mirage-2000s will be purchased.
Libya: Very small amount of Flankers (Su-30mk3)
Netherlands: F-35

Swiss competition: Rafale, Typhoon, Gripen
Indian MRCA: Rafale, Typhoon, F-16I, F-18E, MiG-35, Gripen
Brazil FX: Rafale, Gripen, F-18
Libya (they didn’t sign anything final with Russia yet): Flanker, Rafale
Nederlands: F-35, Gripen

Every time I hear news about the raising of prices on Russian export hardware, its usually Indians and Chinese customers.

Good. That is what they deserve for dealing with Russia in the first place! Russia makes a lot of money off of these two countries and they never seem to learn so good for Russia.

Obviously the UK does not want to a strong military force. Cancel the Carriers, cancel the F-35 order, retire the Harriers, and put the extra money in more Type-45 Destroyers and then stop b!tching about military cuts.

Its really not a SPYDER system since SPYDER is fitted with Python-5 and Derby missiles. The pics only show Python-5 missiles. This system was probably in Georgia before the war broke out for evaluation and did not have all the components as a true SPYDER battery.

Georgia now knows what weapon systems she needs and I think she will be modernizing her forces with the lessons learned in this war.

Japan needs aircraft carriers since she was a pioneer in naval aviation and built the first aircraft carrier from the keel up! In a perfect world Japan and South Korea would jointly develop and build aircraft carriers and naval aircraft.

How good of a design is the USS America (LHA-6)? Can she carry non VSTOL airctaft?
