Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin is to visit India on March 11-12. Three arms-sale contracts worth $4 billion, including an agreement specifying the new price of the Vikramaditya aircraft carrier, have been prepared for his visit.

A Russian Defense Ministry official and a source close to top managers of Russia's state arms exporter Rosoboronexport said this implied an additional $2.35 billion contract for completing the Vikramaditya (formerly the Admiral Gorshkov) aircraft carrier, between Rosoboronexport and the Indian Ministry of Defence, a $1.2 billion contract for the delivery of 29 Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-29-K/KUB Fulcrum-D carrier- based fighters, including those for the above-said carrier, and a contract between Russia's United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) and India's Hundustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) on jointly developing the Multirole Transport Aircraft (MTA), designated the Ilyushin Il-214.

The most expensive contract, for the delivery of the Vikramaditya aircraft carrier now being refitted at Sevmash shipyard in Severodvinsk, northern Russia, has a long history. In 2004, the price of the carrier modernization contract was estimated at $970 million.

However, India stopped financing the project in 2007, after Sevmash had spent $550 million. After it became clear that the allocations were not enough, both sides began to negotiate a new contract price. Last year, Sevmash received an additional $100 million tranche from India, as well as a 6 billion ruble loan from Vnesheconombank in 2008. The latter made it possible to avoid mothballing the project.

Consequently, India will allocate an additional $1.5 billion, while Russia initially requested $2 billion, a source close to Sevmash top managers told the paper.

Moscow and New Delhi have been discussing the MTA project since the early 2000s and have examined plans to finance it at the expense of India's debts. In the long run, both sides agreed to contribute $300 million each to the project, a source at UAC said. The relevant contract is also ready for signing.

The financial problems have been solved at a time when the MTA project seems unfeasible for the lack of human resources, said Konstantin Makiyenko, deputy director of the Center for Analysis of Strategies and Technologies.

Nevertheless, these contracts and the final carrier refit agreement are a major success that compares with the 2009-2010 arms-sale contracts worth almost $5 billion between Russia and Vietnam and the 2006 Russian-Algerian arms-sale contracts worth over $7.5 billion, Mikhail Barabanov, editor-in-chief of the Moscow Defense Brief magazine, told the paper.

Moscow and New Delhi are negotiating contracts for the development of a new fighter based on the fifth-generation Sukhoi PAK FA Advanced Tactical Frontline Fighter and the delivery of about 40 Sukhoi Su-30-MKI Flanker-H multi-role military aircraft. However, both documents are unlikely to be signed during Putin's visit, a source close to top Rosoboronexport managers told the paper.
