The Dubai Airshow will be held on November 13-17 in
the United Arab Emirates. The Airport Expo complex in Dubai is expected
to host about 1,000 exhibitors from 50 countries which will showcase
their products to more than 55,000 guests and visitors.
Visitors at the show “will be presented advanced products of the
Russian aerospace industry, such as the Su-35 and MiG-29M/MiG-29M2 multifunctional
fighters, Yak-130 combat trainer, and Be-200 amphibious aircraft,”
Rosoboronexport said in a statement on Friday.
The Russian exhibit will also promote a variety of military helicopters,
such as the famed Mi-171 transport helicopters, Ka-52 and Mi-28NE attack
helicopters and the Mi-26T - the world's heaviest-lift helicopter.
Air defense equipment will be represented by the S-300VM, Tor-M2E
and Buk-M2E air defense missile systems, Tunguska-M1 and Pantsir-S1
air defense gun/missile systems, Igla-S
man-portable air defense system, radars, electronic warfare equipment,

Russia has firmly established itself as the world's second largest arms
exporter after the United States. Combat aircraft account for almost
half of all foreign sales by Rosoboronexport.
“Russian combat systems have earned high respect and are in great
demand among customers in North Africa and the Middle East,” Rosoboronexport
said.
The
Indian local made light combat aircraft (LCA), Tejas LSP-7, made its
maiden flight on Friday, March 10, 2012. The Limited Series Production-7
aircraft took off from the HAL airport at 4.27 pm and flew for 28 minutes.
