Rosoboronexport will also feature an Il-76MD-90A(E) plane capable of transporting 60 metric tons of cargo to a distance of 4,000 km

MOSCOW, May 19. /TASS/. Russia’s state arms exporter Rosoboronexport will demonstrate the latest Su-57E fifth-generation fighter jet at the LIMA 2025 international maritime and aerospace exhibition in Malaysia, the company’s press office announced on Monday.

"The aviation component is the exhibition’s main theme. In this segment, the company will feature the latest Russian Su-57E fifth-generation fighter, which will be of interest for both representatives of the Malaysian Royal Air Force and other Southeast Asian countries. Its basic advantage before a small group of rivals is its successful combat experience in a real armed conflict amid the enemy’s use of advanced aerial attack, ai defense and electronic warfare capabilities," the press office said in a statement.

Visitors to the LIMA 2025 international maritime and aerospace exhibition and Rosoboronexport’s potential partners will also be able to view Russian-made Su-35S and Su-30SM super-manuevrable fighter jets during the air show of the aerobatic group Russkiye Vityazi (Russian Knights), it said.

Rosoboronexport will also feature an Il-76MD-90A(E) plane capable of transporting 60 metric tons of cargo to a distance of 4,000 km. The plane can be used to airlift personnel and military hardware, airdrop troops and cargo and can be promptly converted into a fire-fighting version and a military hospital, the press office said.

In addition, Rosoboronexport will demonstrate the Russian-made Ka-52E and Mi-28NME combat helicopters and the Mi-171Sh military-transport rotorcraft at the LIMA 2025 aerospace show. These helicopters have confirmed their high flight and technical properties in the process of their operation and are especially in demand in Southeast Asia, it said.
