KUALA LUMPUR, April 21. /TASS/. Malaysian pilots speak highly of Russia’s Sukhoi Su-30MKM fighters that are guarding the country’s skies, Russian Ambassador to Malaysia Nail Latypov told TASS on the sidelines of the Defense Services Asia (DSA) International Exhibition of arms and military equipment in Malaysia.

Military-technical cooperation, he noted, is one of the important areas of interaction. Thus, Russia’s Su-30MKM fighters, which have proven themselves to be very effective, are "guarding Malaysian skies."

"I spoke with Malaysian military personnel and Malaysian pilots, and the feedback was very positive, very favorable, which we are naturally proud of and believe is a good basis for us to continue working with the Malaysians in this area," Latypov emphasized.
