Former chief opposes Russian jet purchase
ACM Pong Maneesin, former chief of RTAF, is against purchasing the Su-30 for his country.
He said the jets are made of poor-quality materials and would pose maintenance problems because of a lack of spare parts. Russia had proposed its Su-30 MK during his tenure but he rejected them after considering the pros and cons.
Meanwhile, Interior Minister ACM Kongsak Wantana said he favour the Sukhois as they are comparable to F-15 which are expensive.
