According to Turkish sources, Iran is ready to buy the 24 Sukhoi Su-35 Flanker-E fighter jets that Egypt ordered from Russia, but Russia did not deliver. It is believed that after this purchase, Iran will make a second one for another 36 units of the Russian flagship.
The Turkish publication sammunasanayist.com claims that after the purchase of the first 24 fighters, Tehran and Moscow may sit down at the negotiating table for the production of the 36 fighters in Iran.
The Turkish source claimed that 30 Iranian pilots are already in Russia and are expected to undergo training.
