Russia to sell two more Gepard ships to Vietnam
LANGKAWI, Malaysia. Dec 7 (Interfax-AVN) - The Russian arms export monopoly Rosoboronexport and the Zelenodolsk Gorky Plant have successfully finished a contract on shipping two Gepard vessels to Vietnam and signed another contact for two such ships.
"The contract has been fulfilled within the agreed-upon timeframe. Vietnam has no objections. The first Gepard was shipped last year and the second this year. Another contract for the second pair of such ships has been signed now," Sergei Rudenko, a deputy director of the Zelenodolsk Gorky Plant for state defense order and foreign trade, told Interfax-AVN on Wednesday.
The first two ships were armed with attack missiles, while the other two will bear anti-submarine equipment and weapons, he said.
Other South Asian nations have also displayed interest in these ships, Rudenko said.
"We had a meeting with the Cambodian defense minister at this exhibition yesterday. They were interested in the same pair of ships," Rudenko said.
