Dubai [UAE], November 19 (ANI): Sergey Chemezov, CEO of Russia’s Rostec state corporation, has affirmed that the company will support India with whatever defence capabilities it may require.
On being asked if there is any official communication from India regarding the additional S400 systems or the Su-57, he said, “We have strong relations with India, and whatever India requires, we are here to support.”
The Rostec CEO noted that they continued to supply essential military equipment to India, despite geopolitical constraints.
“India and Russia have been partners for many years. Even when India was under sanctions, we supplied the country with weapons to ensure its security. Today, we continue the same approach as in previous years, supplying India with whatever military equipment it needs and ensuring our mutual interests in developing cooperation,” he told ANI, speaking on the sidelines of the Dubai Air Show 2025.
At the Dubai 2025 air show, a senior representative of Russia’s state arms exporter Rosoboronexport outlined what Moscow is offering India for future air combat programmes.
Describing the Su-57, he said, “Rosoboronexport offers to India both license production of air weapons for future generation aircraft and integration of Indian weapons.”
The official added that Russia and UAC are offering India the Su-57 produced in Russia along with a pathway to shift production to India in stages. As part of this, he said, Rosoboronexport is offering “technology transfer” and “technological learning of few generation technologies, including engines, optics, AESA radar, AI elements, low signature technologies and modern air weapons.”
