Russia may receive from France technology systems interconnection and command and control "Mistrale" only if you sign a contract to build a further 2 of the helicopter carrier. In consequence of the current international situation this may not happen.
The Russian side has already passed disks with documentation for systems of communication and command and control of the helicopter carrier. Experts, however, report that the acquired data will be in vain without the study of the French professionals. The study is possible, but only on the condition of further cooperation between Russia and France, whose prospects are unclear.
Therefore, Russia has access to overseas technologies without the possibility to establish their own production. This will be possible only in case, if there will be built 2 helicopter with the participation of French experts.
"At the moment Russia has already passed disks with documentation on the system, but the technology also implies the study of the French experts. Under the contract, the latter is only possible when purchasing the third and 4th ships on 1st two are installed ready system, and without the help of others to collect and integrate them it will be possible only in case of further partnership," reports "Izvestia" expert's words.
Adept Russian military-industrial complex also proved that the country is passed technical documentation 3 systems installed on 1st two ships, noting that the information obtained is practically useless.
The Russian government has not yet decided about signing the contract to build a further 2 "Mistrale". The final decision will be made only after Russia would get 2 already made helicopter carrier. "When we get these ships, when being said get, let's see if satisfied with the Navy. In a few years it will be clear, whether it will buy another", - have told in the United shipbuilding company.
