⚡The Ethiopian Air Force has received two Su-30K fighters. At the same time, there were no earlier reports of a contract for the delivery of Russian-made combat aircraft to this country. Both aircraft were part of a batch of 18 fighters previously operated by the Indian Air Force, but returned to Russia in 2011 in exchange for new Su-30MKIs. For a long time, these "Indian" aircraft were stored at a repair facility in Belarus, but in 2017, 12 of them were purchased by Angola. Now the remaining six are apparently going to Ethiopia. Effectively Russia has managed to sell relatively old aircraft to not the most conventional customers. |
