    - Eh ... "Fedot, but not that one ..." - Not exactly "that buyer" ... - This is on the basis of "brotherly relations" again ... - minimal "partial prepayment"; a huge share of the repayment of the declared value by barter - payment in Kazakh goods; provision of components and other equipment on a preferential basis; and just “writing off” the residual outstanding debt ...
    - Well, the rollback from this deal is enough for our officials ... but whether our factories are "enough" ... is another question ...
    - I can cite as an example the "killed factories" (entire powerful industrial associations) in Omsk and Novosibirsk, etc., which could easily "stamp" both satellites and missiles (equipment and complete assembly), as well as - and the latest military aircraft for the Russian army (both "Su" and "Migi", etc ...)

      Such examples are throughout RUSSIA, but they could not have BEEN if the USSR had not collapsed and everything would have been OWN, and now it’s NOT YOURS and OURS, but only a handful of oligarchs.

    The main thing is to launch to the market, provide maintenance and service. And the buyers will stretch.

    Well, that's good. Let several, but the Kazakhs have already wished to take our MC-21. Well, from now on it will depend on our service departments.
