According to a number of reports, the Ministry of Defense of Kazakhstan has abandoned plans to modernize and re-repair these MiG-31s, which will therefore be decommissioned in the next few years. It is possible that the Su-30SM fighters as part of the 610th air base began to come to replace the MiG-31 interceptors.

Am surprised they didn't go for Buk M3. Would have been a better option.

Update on current Kazakhstan Air Force purchases of aircraft and SAM.

@RadarFennec
After much fanfare by some Westerners that Kazakhstan was buying the Rafale, it appears they were very much mistaken.

The Asian country is buying Sukhoi Su-30SM fighters from Russia. they are instead getting C295 and A400M transport aircraft from Airbus.

There is simply no reason to get the A400M when the Il-76MD-90 is much cheaper and more capable.
But yes Russia needs a complete transport aircraft lineup.

That's not the same class of cargo planes.

Isos wrote:That's not the same class of cargo planes.

You can carry whatever you can carry in the A400M inside the Il-76.
The A400M is an aircraft in between the C-130 and the C-17. Even the US doesn't have an equivalent.
