MIDHANI has been exporting Inconel & titanium forgings to foreign aerospace & defence majors for some time now:
UAE probably. Apparently, Adani defence has already supplied 10 Lakh units of small arms ammo to UAE
Apparently, Armenia got more Akash than previously reported:
Is there some website were we can check if MIL units are exporting something? Will give us a better idea.Big quantities of ammo exports are being made to European nations. Most of these shells will end up in Ukraine through 3rd parties:
Maybe SIPRI data. But that's only once a year. I have no clue about port data. Maybe @Ashwin knows.Is there some website were we can check if MIL units are exporting something? Will give us a better idea.
Like do our ports have something of like this.
Multiple export consignment tenders have been floated over the past 12 months by MIL, all contracts are for 6-12 months multiple delivery related.Is there some website were we can check if MIL units are exporting something? Will give us a better idea.
Like do our ports have something of like this.
Armenia has become the first foreign customer for the indigenously-developed Akash air defence missiles, which have an interception range of 25 km, while other countries like Brazil are even keen on co-production and co-development of advanced versions of the system. “Brazil wants an inter-governmental agreement on it…talks are underway,” another source said.
Will Russia Lose… the Armenian Air Force?

Is the Russian aeronautics industry starting to pay for its recurring shortcomings? At the end of October 2024, the Armenian Ministry of Defense announced that it had begun negotiations with the Indian aircraft manufacturer HAL in order to acquire a batch of locally produced Su-30MKI Flanker-H fighters as well as dedicated weapons. In doing so, it intends to cancel the order for eight additional Su-30SM Flanker-Cs that has been dragging on… for 5 years. This would be the first contract since India chose to export its own Su-30MKIs.
Currently, the Armenian fighter fleet consists of four Sukhoi Su-30SM Flanker-Cs received new in the spring of 2019 and around fifteen much older Su-25K Frogfoots. However, a few weeks after receiving its fighters, Armenia chose to order eight additional Su-30SMs. Although they have been partially paid for, at 70% of the contract, no aircraft have been delivered since. For one simple reason: Sukhoi has not produced any of them and the only Su-30s to date that have left its factories have been for the needs of Russia itself.
Five years later it seems that the patience of the Armenians has run out. Russia could well lose a customer but also an ally. Armenia has started discussions with HAL around the supply of eight to twelve Su-30MKI. In fact, Hindustan Aircraft Limited would take over the eight new aircraft, on condition that Sukhoi reimburses the advance, and would upgrade the four current Su-30SM to the Su-30MKI standard. This would include replacing the original passive electronically scanned array radar with an active Uttam antenna radar.
Known as the " Super 30 " program, the negotiations revolve around a batch of Astra 1 long-range air-to-air missiles, Rudram 1 anti-radar missiles, and SAAW guided bombs. All three are of Indian design and production. The size of the contract that is emerging between the two countries is currently unknown.

On-topic, how will russians react to cutting the SU-30SM and placing order at HAL for SU-30 MKI, don't they control key parts for engines etc.
I don't know you tell me......... Where the hell does this tiny state get so much money from? This weapon sale to Armenia sound like a foreign intelligence trap to get a know how on our desi weapon systems & their capabilities.On-topic, how will russians react to cutting the SU-30SM and placing order at HAL for SU-30 MKI, don't they control key parts for engines etc.
