Russia and
Turkey are discussing the possibility of deliveries of the Russian-made Sukhoi Su-57 stealth
fighter jet and Su-35 aircraft to Turkey, the RIA news agency cited a
Russian official as saying on Wednesday.
Russia began delivering S-400
missile systems to Turkey this year, in a step that strained ties with Ankara's NATO allies and prompted
Washington to begin removing Turkey from its program for manufacturing F-35 jets, which Turkey also planned to buy.
The head of Russia's Federal Service of Military-Technical Cooperation said he planned to discuss the S-400 missile defense system with a
Turkish colleague later on Wednesday as well as "possibly deliveries of the Su-35 or Su-57".
