Title: What is Russia Thinking??
Post by: shawn a on October 29, 2014, 11:36:27 PM
In the Oct. 27th issue of Aviation Week and Space Technology, there is an article titled "Back for More". It reports chinas' desired order for 24 SU-35 aircraft, and openly wonders if china intends to copy these planes. DUH.
Also mentioned in this article is a desire for what is described as "an abnormally high number of spare 117S engines"
Has Russia not learned from the past, or is this a simple case of wanting to help their communist brothers?
