Russia and Brazil discuss the supply of an additional batch of Igla-S MANPADS

Russia and Brazil are discussing the possibility of supplying an additional batch of Igla-S man-portable air defense systems (MANPADS). This was announced by the deputy director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation (FSMTC), the head of the official Russian delegation at the exhibition "Expodefens-2017", which runs from 4 to December 6 in Bogota (Colombia), Anatoly Punchuk.

Currently, the Brazilian side already has Igla-S MANPADS. It is obvious that the foreign customer acquired the amount of weapons that he considered sufficient to ensure his national security. At the same time, we are working with our Brazilian partners about the possibility of supplying an additional lot of this property.

- said Punchuk.

Punchuk also said that Russia has completed the implementation of a package of more than ten contracts for the supply of arms to Venezuela. Caracas received armored vehicles, rocket artillery weapons, air defense weapons and other military equipment.

Answering the question about when the plant for the production of AK-103 machines in this country will work, Punchuk said that work is being done jointly with Venezuelan colleagues in accordance with the schedules agreed with Caracas.

Their commissioning will be carried out as scheduled.

... let them take it, they won’t be superfluous ...

Yes, let them take it, but the plant under construction in Venezuela somehow upset, it seems that few cones were filled, now there is the AK-103

[aszzz888]

... I hope that everything will come to its senses and fall into place ..

And if it doesn’t settle down and the United States sells the color revolution? After all, they will receive a finished plant for the production of AK-103. So I share the discontent of my namesake.

[aszzz888]

... Maxim, I don’t think that the rams will have enough mind to finish building the plant and lines, and put AK on the stream ...

[Jedi]

Barmaley - no, of course. But the USA is easy. By and large, they are interested in not only and not so much the plant itself, as technical documentation.

[maxim947]

I welcome, in addition to these reasons, I would add with a high degree of probability the uncontrolled production of weapons, with the dubious return of transfers to the budget of the Russian Federation and + a repetition of the situation with the Chinese and Bulgarians.

Today, one news is more interesting than another. Why did the Brazilians “Needle” in the first contract was not clear, Well, then, such, like, let it be. And now an additional contract ,,,,

Everything will rot on the farm. I would also get a couple. In the garage on the wall would hang. Both beautiful and cheerful. You never know how it turns in life.

"Igloo" can be sold is not "willow!"

[dubovitskiy.1947]

Yes, what is the "Needle". It's time to think about the Iskander.
Brazil is a sovereign country and has the right to negotiate any arms with any state.

cook against the Angles?
to help Argentina?

[Incvizitor]

Something about the “Verba” is not particularly written: is it even being bought? Sell?

[Asthma]

while the calculation is according to the scheme "morning money-evening chairs", then, as for me, the norms. more orders for god orders. =)

[steelmaker]

Libya, these MANPADS did not help. They razed the army to the ground. These complexes should be taken at least with beech.

when the AK-103 automatic machine factory in this country starts operating, Punchuk said that the work is being carried out jointly with Venezuelan colleagues in accordance with schedules agreed with Caracas.

Russian business? Venezuela threw us 50 billion dollars for the previously delivered B and BT, and we are building a plant for it, by the time we build it, an American protege will already be in Caracas ....
