                Well, in fact, this is a small step towards the contract, this is one of the mandatory conditions of India - the organization of assembly on their territory, but it is far from the only one. Well, the MiG itself is damp and suits the conditions of the competition so-so. I'm not at all sure that in the place of the customer I would choose him.

        Let's first organize the production of the MiG-35 at our factories, which should complete state tests at the end of this year, and the Il-112V, which in the near future, in a new guise, will hopefully begin flight tests, and then we will talk about the chances for cooperation in joint production of these machines with India. No contract yet. In fact, only a preliminary agreement, and even with such a capricious and changeable partner as India (the history of the "joint production" of the Il-214 and the Indian version of the Su-57, I hope everyone knows). So we'll wait and see. No need to run ahead of the locomotive.

          we are talking about a screwdriver assembly, basically, we are not talking about the technology of producing engines; hence the avionics and the glider remain. They do not have a full cycle of avionics development, but the airframe may seem to be, and that since the "joint venture" even in these 2 niches will have to receive parts from the Russian Federation.

          You see IL-214 and IL-112 are somewhat different stories. In one case, we tried impudently at the expense of the Indians to "take a ride for free" (in fact, we didn’t have any developments), and the Il-112, at the very least, flies and prepares for production.

          China signed a large investment contract with Iran for $ 300 billion. and can link these investments with the supply of certain types of weapons. In China itself, a couple of years ago, it was believed that Iran would choose heavy Su-30 and Su-35 and light Chinese J-10. The volumes assumed: 75 Su-30 \ 35 and 150 J-10, later 100 Su-30 \ 35 and 150 J-10 were voiced.

        In this case, it is not. Ours have just acquired an excellent lobbyist for their interests in India itself. And what is a lobbyist, and what is excellent, so see the history of the creation of "Tejas".
        The point is that the Indian Ministry of Defense hesitated, and we with the unfinished MiG-35, and the HAL, with their half-flying third-generation semi-finished product. So they rushed to buy foreign property, which resulted in a contract with Raphael. But with the Rafals it worked out ... to put it mildly, embarrassing, and the Indian Defense Ministry did not get what they wanted. And they didn’t get much more expensive than it was planned to get ... And now everything is bad. The French are stunned, as roads, and technologies do not give, Tejas is a miserable for the modern Air Force, and our MiG-35s have slowly finished to some sort of sane state, and are ready to establish its production in the Indian open spaces ... And then get yourself HAL as allies - it's worth a lot.
        So this is definitely not our deflection

      India is not even half an eye on CAATSA when choosing suppliers. They are quite independent. And the Americans will not dare, there is something to lose. So this is all nonsense. And the chances of 35 are good, because:
      1. Price. It will definitely be cheaper than Westerners. And the Chinese are not considered - the enemies.
      2. There is experience of industrial cooperation in assembling the SU-30MKI, we have already collected more than 200 and have just signed for 12 more.
      3. Westerners will not go to industrial cooperation, and make in India will not work. And we will go.
      4. The 35th is the cherry on the cake of the 29th family, which is well known to India. There are 29s that have been in India for 30 years, have been modernized and all fly. In difficult conditions.
      5. Our managers involved in the export of weapons have the necessary corruption experience and competencies, as well as the go-ahead for these cases, so if it is needed, and in India it happens, there will be no problems.
      Something like this ...
      The chances of being 35 are high! God grant that the contract is universal.
