Russia hands over commercial offer of 21 MiG-29 fighters to India
Russia has handed over to India a commercial offer to deliver 21 MiG-29 fighters, a spokesperson for Russia’s Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation said on Tuesday.
“The Indian Air Force staff received a tender request for the supply of 21 aircraft in 2021. The Russian side has transferred to Indian partners the commercial offer that is now being considered by the customer,” spokesperson Valeria Reshetnikova told reporters on the sidelines of the MAKS-2021 international aerospace show.
Last year, India’s council for defense purchases approved the acquisition of 21 Russia’s MiG-29 fighters. The Russian federal service said in February that the Indian government also decided in favour of purchasing the aircraft.
