These deals were in the pipeline for a long time now. Their conclusion is a satisfactory development. The 42 Su-30MKI are most probably the Super Sukhoi variants with the added ability to carry Brahmos ALCM. Still bigger deals are in the offing with the PAKFA/FGFA deal amounting to a record breaking USD 30 bln!
