Russia - Azerbaijan defense contracts

Seems like we could be seeing some major Russia-Azerbaijan deals in the near future...

Azerbaijan interested in helicopters "Ka-52" and the modernization of tanks "T-72"

"As you know, Azerbaijan - a country with which we have a close relationship, both historical and now. We attach the greatest importance to the development of practical military cooperation with Azerbaijan, "- said S.Goreslavsky agency" Interfax-Azerbaijan ".

He noted that on I Azerbaijan International Defense Industry Exhibition «ADEX-2014" presented Russian company "Helicopters of Russia", "Uralvagonzavod", "Rocket and tactical weapons" and others.

"Rosoboronexport" - the only foreign company that brought full-scale specimens of his art, one of which is a reconnaissance and attack helicopter "Ka-52". He attracted interest from our partners in Azerbaijan and expressed interest to him directly by the president of your country, who was with us, "- said S.Goreslavsky.

"We are pleased to see the actual interest in the car. He also founded, as it seems to us, in two circumstances. The first - is that in service of your country already has helicopters "Mi-35M", as transport and combat, and military transport helicopters "Mi-17V-5." I want to say that because Azerbaijan is already "Mi-35M" and "Mi-17V-5", "Ka-52" would complement this line of helicopters in terms of their effectiveness in the use of combat conditions in the country's defense, "- he said .

Another reason for the "Ka-52" may be the best value for Azerbaijan, that, according to S.Goreslavskogo, all of its components are manufactured in Russia.

"The second thing that characterizes this helicopter: it is completely manufactured in Russia. All components are manufactured in Russia. In today's world, as you know, is a very serious impact on the delivery of a sanctions regime. We are now experiencing the impact of sanctions by Western countries, and where it is necessary to pursue a policy of substitution. But this does not apply to the "Ka-52" and many other weapons systems that are in service with the Russian army. Initially the principle was such that all components must be manufactured in Russia. Therefore, we are not dependent on supplies for their own army of other countries, "- he stressed.

"So it will be very profitable acquisition, including Azerbaijan, which is actually independent, taking into account the strategic partnership relations between Baku and Moscow" - added S.Goreslavsky.

According to him, "Rosoboronexport", organized presentation of aviation equipment of the Russian Federation for their Azerbaijani partners.

"We have had a great presentation for the local partners of aeronautical engineering with an emphasis on the" Ka-52 "and other helicopters and Russian-made aircraft. In particular, we have great expectations for this market promotion and training and combat aircraft "Yak-130", - he said.

S.Goreslavsky noted that the Azerbaijani specialists of aircraft are often interested in "Yak-130".

"According to preliminary estimates of your staff, this plane is of great interest to the aviation of Azerbaijan. He is in great demand in the world now, because combines advanced training aircraft for any brand is not only Russian aircraft production, but also American, French, and others. And at the same time it is air-combat platform ", - the representative of the deputy director of" Rosoboronexport ".

In addition to aviation, according S.Goreslavskogo, Baku is interested in the heavy armor.

"Here (in the exhibition - IF-Az), along with the" Ka-52 ", was introduced and the full-scale specimen combat vehicle" BMPT-72. " In general, we have held with Azerbaijan (in the past - IF-Az) contracts for the supply of tanks "T-90", "BMP-3", "BTR-82A", flamethrower systems of various types and other military equipment. We look forward to our continued cooperation, as it started a very successful and dynamic development, "- he stressed.

Baku and Moscow, according S.Goreslavskomu, negotiate and modernization of tanks "T-72".

"We are in talks on the modernization of tanks" T-72 ". We are now at the beginning of the way, show the possibilities and look forward to their implementation in the future "- said S.Goreslavsky

In the words of Sergei Goreslavsky: "The two sides are negotiating over joint modernization of T-72 tanks."

And now might the Russian-supplied TOS-1s will be used to Blitz Nagorno-Karabakh's defenses outright?

Russia made some major miscalculations; it doesn't have near the influence, mediating or peacemaking capability between Armenia/NK and Azerbaijan as it thinks it does. Or maybe it just doesn't care, and was too enticed by the possibility of a quick buck to resist arming Azerbaijan with everything it needs to take NK.

Armenia has nowhere else to go but with Russia for the moment anyway. But if Turkey should leave NATO a few years down the line, then that would open Armenia for a lot more co-operation with NATO, EU & the US than now - and Russia will only have itself to blame if it looses it.

TUrkey leaving NATO? Sure. NATO leaving Turkey? I guess that's the kind of trade-off, Russia DREAMS every night and day. Turkey dropping the NATO pretense also makes Greece far more secure, (IF you link them with Turkish Stream). So yeah, Turkey going out NATO; where does VVP sign?

Turkey won't be able to leave NATO. US has nuclear weapons on turkish soil, just like in germany and netherlands. The US has a protocol if it ever losses control over germany in a manner that they could not bring germany back under US hand even with their color or bloody coup de etats so this protocol is there to initiate the nukes.

According to "Azeridefence" quoting KBM at "Armiya-2015" arms expo, Azerbaijan has received the first batch of Khrizantema-S.
