After Ukraine suspended its military cooperation with Russia, the sale of Russian Su-35 advanced fighters to China has been stalled after Ukraine suspended military cooperation with Russia, as the fighter is designed with Ukrainian parts and technology, according to the Hong Kong-based Phoenix Television.
Russian president Vladimir Putin conceded to selling China 24 Su-35S fighters in November 2012. However, China and Russia have not yet made any consensus on signing the contract. Under the invitation of the Russian Armed Forces, a Chinese delegation under Zhang Youxia, the director of the PLA's General Armaments Department, visited Russia on July 16, according to the Moscow-based Military Parade.
