Kozhin: Russia is looking forward to a speedy deal on the supply of Saudi Arabia’s C-400

In the first half of this year, Russia expects to finalize a deal for the supply of Saudi Arabia’s C-400 systems, Vladimir Kozhin, presidential aide for military-technical cooperation, told Interfax.

Kozhin: Russia is looking forward to a speedy deal on the supply of Saudi Arabia’s C-400




The final document yet. In the first half of the year, I think I’ll finish
- Kozhin said, answering the agency's question about the timing of the transaction.

February 11 head of the state corporation "Rostec" Sergei Chemezov, in an interview with the Washington Post, said that Russia and Saudi Arabia have not yet reached a final agreement on the supply of air defense systems C-400.

Kozhin, in a February interview with Kommersant, also spoke about the work on this contract.

I cannot say that everything is smooth there: negotiations continue, primarily because the partners insist on a sharp jerk, implying both supply and technology transfer. We, having quite a lot of experience, respecting and appreciating the potential of a partner, still offer to move step by step. First, the delivery of finished weapons, the development and understanding of it, familiarizing our specialists with the capabilities of the opposite side. This is a complex chain, so we tell our partners that we should not hurry
- said Kozhin.

      sell with documents! !!
      they do so. By the way, let's remember the S-400, Turkey, Qatar, who else, well, and who is escalating the situation? Is that how they protect Syria by selling weapons to everyone in a row.

        Yes, you calm down. Selling Arabs to C400, we finance our defense industry. And those, in turn, are already working on new types of weapons.
        Did you see yesterday’s premieres? No one offers them to the Arabs.
        Arabs will either buy from us or from mattresses. Having bought from us, they will demonstrate to the mattresses their independence from them. And this is important for us.

          Developing industry, the state makes money, including for the defense industry. And on new species, science is working.
          And if you already sell, then it is necessary to those where our interests do not intersect - in any way. Arabs are always supporters of the United States

          Quite right, there is already a c500, why should 400 be kept secret. While it is for sale - it is necessary to sell. It’s like with a girl - while she is being married, she must be given out, otherwise nobody will take it)))

      Listen, with such new developments announced yesterday, the riddle of the sale of complexes with the 400th country to NATO and the US allies has been completely solved. What-what, but even our super cool systems are not able to deal with hypersound. So what the hell is not joking, EXCEEDENT funds will not hurt. And prestige and influence will be added! good

        Firstly, it is a purely defensive weapon, i.e. cannot be used against us. And if we do decide to solve the Saudis, then our facilities, especially new ones, this complex is not a hindrance. And high-tech weapons, like these complexes, are not scary to the manufacturer, remote shutdown, missile self-destruction codes, etc., have not been canceled. The storekeepers disconnected their devices to Saddam, which is why we are worse ... They also said that we were not going to share technologies, just buy the finished product.

      What kind of alarmism? The more C-400 will be in the world, the less Amer and NATO aircraft will fly. And we sell an export version. And if necessary, we will sell in CA and T-14 in export content.

      They really want to buy (this is independence in the event of a conflict with the USA, etc.) But they are under terrible pressure (so that oil does not rise in price ..)))) .. Turkey bought it! And acts calmly .. hehe

        That's right, Vitaly! S-400 sauds will not be taken to the borders of Russia. But the Americans will be a bummer on the purchase of weapons from them, which they do not need at all. lol So, the promise of 300 lard to Trump for a long-term supply of weapons can hang in the air. Politics, it’s a subtle thing. winked
