It is noteworthy that Shugaev has not specifically announced what new orders they have made with Vietnam to provide these types of weapons. However, there has been a great deal of interest in the Su-35S as well as the S-400 Triumph Long Range Anti Aircraft Missile.

Another possible long-awaited contract is the negotiation of a license to build four additional Molniya 1241.8 missile defense vessels with stronger weapon configurations.

This is a very good time for Vietnam to buy more Russian weapons, as we have been exempt from the CAATSA.
