A contract on the supply of advanced Russian anti-ship missiles to Syria is being implemented, head of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation Mikhail Dmitriyev said on Wednesday.

Russia has repeatedly said it would honor a 2007 contract on the delivery of several Bastion anti-ship missile systems armed with SS-N-26 Yakhont supersonic cruise missiles to Syria, despite efforts by Israel and the United States to stop the deal.

“This contract is under implementation,” Dmitriyev told reporters in Moscow but declined to elaborate.

The Yakhont missile has a range of 300 kilometers, the capacity to carry a 200-kilogram warhead and the unique ability of being able to cruise several meters above the water surface, making it difficult to detect and intercept.

Dmitriyev also said Russia will meet its goal to export $11.7 billion worth of weaponry in 2011.

Russian arms exports topped $10 billion last year.

We should sell Syria the HQ-9 defense weapons.

Syria should bomb zionist occupational forces if mass protests increase inside Syria....
imo its the zionists who are creating unrest in the region.
like this Syria will gain support of the majority in the Muslim Countries and will prevent the puppet governments from doing something silly on the behest of Imperial American Israeli partnership.

nice counter strategy

wrong, after the blood bath by the syrian security forces arab populations will never be happy with this regime. even if it bomb zionist state will not have a victory but it will make it weaker and then go away so this regimes's days r numbered
