Russia invited India to consider the possibility of supplying the party MiG-35

The Russian Aircraft Manufacturing Corporation (RSK) MiG offers India to consider the possibility of concluding a contract for the supply of a multipurpose MiG-35 fighter, said the General Director of RSK MiG Sergey Korotkov.

“Despite the fact that we lost the tender for the supply of multi-purpose fighter jets to the Indian Air Force 126, RSG MiG fulfilled all the requirements put forward by the tender committee,” said Korotkov, who took part in the celebrations on the occasion of the 50 anniversary of the start of deliveries Indian Air Force Soviet fighter MiG-21. “The aircraft showed good results, sometimes even exceeding expectations.”

# {weapon} According to him, the corporation expects that "India will consider the possibility of concluding a contract on the supply of MiG-35."

“And we will have the opportunity to realize it,” he said. - As part of the knowledge that India received in the process of holding this tender, I would like the theme of the MiG-35 to continue in the long run against the background of our common stories and the 50-year partnership. ”

According to preliminary information, the French company Dassault with the Rafale aircraft became the winner of the tender for the supply of fighters to the Indian Air Force. However, none of the parties has officially announced the terms for concluding a contract, ITAR-TASS reports.

He said earlier that the MiG Russian Aircraft Corporation (RSK) has signed a contract with the Indian Ministry of Defense to train Indian deck pilots aviation.

The good news is that the MiG-35 is not abandoned and not forgotten. I really hope that the car will reach our Air Force.

I remember that the French refused to give guarantees for the planes that the Indians would do at home? How about ours?

To offer does not mean to marry. Indians are smart people and, most likely, Migi-35 will not buy.

Putin, it seems, gave the order, in addition to the products themselves, to give warranty service and a full range of services. So maybe this will play some role and we will get at least part of the tidbit! Of course, if the MiG hit the jackpot in the form of delivery of 126 aircraft, it would be unrealistic cool, because our kind of large parties to buy while they are not going to!

- Well, it is necessary to offer this and so that the Indians had nowhere to go. MiG now really needs both currency and orders, otherwise we will lose a great air company with great competencies. It is necessary to preserve the MiG, which means that it is necessary that the Indians nevertheless take the party, although 30-40 or more planes. Better yet, 126 is right in place of the custodians. Let them Rafal and good airplanes (according to VAF), the Indians need to somehow convince them that they need the MiG. Moreover, the way it is - the Indians already have a MiG-29, they have the first MiG-29K, close to the MiG-35, there is the necessary infrastructure for servicing the MiGs, and there are ready personnel for servicing the MiGs, then for both Rafal, the new techniques for Indians, all this still needs to be created. And in terms of combat capabilities, the MiG-35 and Rafal are quite equal, the MiG looks even better in economic terms - cheaper.

Why not buy? MIG-35 is bad? Who in the subject please enlighten ....

[silver_roman]

MiG-35 - an excellent aircraft, just apparently India decided to diversify the aircraft market. It is explained by a certain dependence on one supplier. In addition to the Su-30 MKI that we supply them with, the FFA also we will be cutting them + frigates and we will deliver to Vikramaditya. This is where the legs grow about the purchase of the ravals.

Unfortunately, the Russian Federation had certain problems with the supply of spare parts. Maybe it scared them a little!

- I read somewhere that the cost of the MiG-35 (both an aircraft and a flight hour) is quite a bit inferior to the SU-30 and SU-35, and itself, in fact, is a light multipurpose aircraft, which implies that this aircraft is significantly cheaper than with Sushki. This was the main reason for the rejection of this aircraft into service by the military. What can you do if the main important parts of the aircraft - for example, the RD-33 engines (modernized for the MiG-35) or the Zhuk-A radar station cost the same as their "dry" analogs of the AL-31 (or AL-41, so the same modernized) or radar "Irbis" (well, or almost the same). How, in this case, the MiG-35 will be significantly cheaper than the same SU-35?
A light aircraft must really be "light", otherwise it will be "heavy", but why take it when there are already heavy ones?

Is it possible that the Indian side, having the opportunity to operate aircraft of different manufacturers, is gaining experience and will probably try to release something of its own soon?

And you, Comrade General Director of MiG RSK Sergey Korotkov, kneel before them. Who, like you now, asks to buy cutting-edge weapons, which Russia itself is sorely lacking ?!

Then, when our army would need Russian weapons, in the case of Serdyukovshchina they were reluctant to take our equipment at all, and enterprises had to look for foreign clients to survive .. Just like Migu, where to go, here is a matter of life and death, if it isn’t for our MO officers it’s needed, it will work for others, the main thing is that it would be for friends at least, and not for NATO .. ​​And on the account of additional offers to the Indians, here you need to approach subtly, offer a lot of bonuses, think that we are trying to get in just to buy, you need to act so that they themselves would want to buy and not beg ...

An attempt is not torture, you see, and the Gangetic Cossacks will mature. Finally, the plane's vinaigrette from the "Indians" is the same. Looks like the dough they have for servicing such a motley horde of planes is immeasurable. Or is His Majesty Bakshish dominating rationalism (reason)?

Quote: avt

Well, not a confessional flight of thought, or did the Franks push a very sweet bakshish?

the flight of your thought is simple and understandable: if someone buys an instant-35 or a su-27, it is because they are "the best in the world" and "have no analogues", but if rafal, then here is "bakshish." by the way, Rafal has been in the ranks for a long time and has shown itself well in real combat, but the moment-35, so far nothing more than a glamorous scarecrow for air shows ... such thoughts do not fly into your head? or are you far from thought?

[Nayhas]

Well, as if in the history of India-France there were enough corruption scandals. But of course, after the contract for Rafali, it is somewhat naive to hope that they will additionally buy the MiG-35 ... On the other hand, "they don't take money for demand" ...

[Rebus]

Quote: newbie

Incidentally, rafal has long been in service and has shown itself well in real combat operations, but MiG-35, for now, is nothing more than a glamorous stuffed animal for air shows ...

If the aircraft of any country did not participate in hostilities, this does not mean that this aircraft is bad. Based on your logic, the Indians needed to buy a Messerschmitt Bf.109, this plane proved to be excellent in combat and therefore it is better than the "glamorous" stuffed f-22, f-35, since these aircraft did not show themselves in combat. ...
The MiG-35 not only surpasses the Dassault Rafale in many ways, but is also half the price. So the purchase of the Dassault Rafale by the Indians is, to put it mildly, suspicious.

and by the way, the rafal has long been in service and has shown itself well in real combat operations,

My dear man, I already live pretty well and I remember how it started and went with Rafal, but for perseverance in preserving my own aviation industry, the francs are certainly respected, but use in combat conditions .... This is past the checkout counter. That's the other one, the Jaguar there, the Marriage of the number plate and its import modifications - fought really on different continents, but not Raphael.

[VadimSt]

Let them offer and sell! It is only necessary immediately, to designate a measure of individual responsibility, in case of disruption of supplies to your army.

[sled 1912]

I would very much like for Misha to show themselves in real military operations in Iraq, Libya, Yugoslavia, Syria, Iran - but alas, they will show themselves like a bunch of scrap metal - it’s sad but I have to admit. The authority has been lost - Africa and India have remained, .Or only Africa.

[Conepatus]

P-n-ds are trading weapons with Pakistan. Which does not stop them from pushing helicopters and coast guard aircraft for India. The French are trading with Pakistan and are also pulling their weapons for India. Russia on this list is the only one that does not supply weapons to Pakistan, but Indian tenders lose with enviable regularity. The nuclear submarines rented (nobody does) the BrahMos jointly launched (there are no rocket analogues) the 5th generation of fighter jets do together (the United States provided full access to F-35 technologies only for the UK and even without the right to use it independently, and F-22 is still under lock and key). In short, we raise the Indian military-industrial complex, and we almost beg to buy weapons from Russia.
You can simply offer the MiG-35 to Pakistan (give a loan for this business) you look and the Indians will show interest in this aircraft.

[vadson]

give credit to pakistan ??? those. just give away at the expense of the budget? WHAT FOR??? they will also beat them to the ground thereby destroying the authority of the aircraft

[Conepatus]

Venisuela and Indonesia received a loan to purchase Russian weapons. Why not give Pakistan? This is actually practiced all over the world.

If the Indians do not buy it, we must deliver it to Syria as "humanitarian aid"!

Why are they in such a hurry to sell the newest fighter, which they themselves do not have very often. If the question is about money, then they will again flow away to us unknown to where. And if our army needs money for construction, then it would be time for Putin to move from words to deeds and shake his homies - Chubzaytsev, Veksel-Bergov and Ponamarevs and Co. And then what is the cycle of "green" in Russia.

[Kyrgyz]

More like a cry of despair, of course, India’s likelihood of joining the MIG 35 project is unrealistic, there is no airplane, its theoretical capabilities, and MIG’s capabilities as an enterprise to supply even 30 units of product with inevitable refinement are doubtful, first you need to create a production base to staff (horseradish with him with experience, even though education was already technical), it is cheaper for Hindus to fuck their Tezis than the MIG in Russia for a new build

[ankh-andrej]

But why is Kazakhstan silent? They have long shown their intention to acquire the 35th. It’s hard to see it with funds. There is no buyer and they don’t give money for production. And with the beetle - AM radar, some problems can be seen.

[Alexander D.]

Before buying any imported weapons, any country first of all asks: how many of these same aircraft (tanks, ships) do you have in service? And the Russian Federation is 0, but they are the best in terms of performance characteristics in their class! Would you buy a car that no one has bought before you and it is not known how it will behave?
