MOSCOW. Nov 3 (Interfax-AVN) - A contract envisioning the delivery of Russian-made Yakhont supersonic cruise anti-ship missiles to Syria has most likely been fulfilled, a military-technological cooperation expert, who asked not to be named, told Interfax-AVN on Wednesday.
"According to foreign sources, Syria has already received a Bastion mobile coast-based missile system equipped with a Yakhont self-guided supersonic missile. The Russian Defense Ministry has confirmed this information indirectly as well," the source said.
The delivery could have been made under an intergovernmental agreement, he said.
"Apparently, Rosoboronexport did not participate in this deal," he said.
