The presence of Algeria on the lost was unexpected. It is the third-
largest buyer of Russian military hardware and has only purchased
coast guard boats and Kalashnikov plants from China so far. Russia
signed a contract with Algeria in March 2006 for the delivery of 28
MiG-29SMT and 6 MiG-29UB planes. However, the Algerian government
complained about the quality of the planes immediately after the
first deliveries. Russia offered to replace two of the planes, which
were manufactured by the Sokol plant in Nizhny Novgorod after
Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika wrote to Russian President
Vladimir Putin, but Algeria did not respond to that suggestion.
Observers say that the country's interest in the FC-1 may be due to
its disappointment with the MiGs, although the FC-1 is much less
militarily effective.
