Russia and Turkey discussed joint work of weapons – RBK
Russia is discussing with Turkey the supply of Russian military products and joint weapons. Dmitry Shugaev, Director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation (FSMTC) of Russia, told Interfax about this.
So, when asked by a reporter about the prospects for military-technical cooperation with Turkey and the timing of signing a contract for the supply of a new batch of S-400 air defense systems to Ankara, Shugaev replied: “Negotiations are continuing on the supply of modern Russian military products, and weapons “.
According to him, military-technical cooperation with the Republic of Turkey is steadily developing, and many countries in the region are showing interest in the S-400 Triumph system.
Erdogan said “it was worth it” assessed the purchase of S-400 systems from Russia
In December 2017, Turkey bought four divisions of the Russian anti-aircraft missile system from Russia for $ 2.5 billion. In October 2019, Rosoboronexport reported that Russia had fulfilled the terms of the contract ahead of schedule by supplying all elements of the S-400 Triumph, including missiles. In December last year, Rostec director Sergei Chemezov said that Moscow expects Ankara to make decisions on the second batch of S-400s.
