Venezuela is planning to buy several Russian military transport aircraft in near future.

Sergei Kornev of Rosoboronexport’s Air Force department made the announcement after Farnborough Air Show outside London.

“A contract in transport aviation is expected with Venezuela soon. We have strong position in Latin American Arms Market.” Kornev said.

India, Venezuela, Algeria and Malaysia are few major buyers of Russian military aircrafts. Total deliveries to all above countries have crossed $2 billion mark in 2008

Russia has already given Su-30MK2 Flanker-G aircraft, Mi-17B-5 Hip-H, Mi-35 Hind-E helicopter gunships as well as Mi-26T Halo freight transport helicopters to Venezuela. This deal will make military ties between both countries stronger.
