MOSCOW, November 17 (RIA Novosti) - Russia's Sukhoi holding will showcase fighter aircraft as well as a new civilian airliner at an international defense exhibition in Indonesia, the company said on Monday.

Sukhoi said it would demonstrate the Su-35 Flanker and Su-30MK2 as well as the Superjet 100 medium-haul airliner at the Indo Defence-2008 exhibition due to open in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, on November 19-22.

The Superjet 100 project is a family of medium-haul passenger aircraft developed by the Sukhoi Design Bureau in cooperation with major U.S. and European aviation corporations.

Sukhoi has said there are at least 100 firm orders for the aircraft, which should complete certification flights in the second half of 2009.

Russia's arms export monopoly said on Wednesday it had signed deals to sell six Su-30 Flanker-C jet fighters and 18 BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicles to Indonesia, adding that Indonesia could also buy other Russian warplanes, as well as Mi-17 and Mi-35 helicopters.

A Rosoboronexport executive said that Indonesia had asked Russia's assistance in modernizing its Soviet-era weapons and equipment.
