Russia is to put up for sale a batch of 18 Sukhoi Su-30 multirole fighter aircraft,
rejected by India on concerns about their engines and returned to Russia in 2003, a defense official said on Wednesday.
"The 18 Su-30s previously used by India and then returned, are in an aviation repair plant in Belarus and are on sale to potential buyers,"
said Alexander Fomin, deputy director of the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation.
He added that the aircraft could be modernized before being sold on.
