Russian navy gets advanced Su-30SM fighters
Multi-purpose Su-30 M2 fighter jet
Moscow - Arab Today
Russia's naval aviation has received a batch of advanced Su-30SM (Flanker-C) multirole fighter jets, Sputnik quoted Navy spokesman Igor Drygalo as saying Monday.
Su-30SM are air superiority jets of the 4++ generation that combine functions of a fighter and a bomber. They are produced in Irkutsk in southern Siberia.
"The handover ceremony took place at the airfield of the Irkutsk aviation factory where pilots of the Russian Navy's maritime combat aviation corps received another batch of Su-30SM jets," Сapt. 1st Rank Drygalo told reporters.
Russia's Defense Ministry has commissioned the Irkutsk plant to build 88 fighters for the Aerospace Forces and 28 fighters for the naval aviation by 2018.
Navy commander-in-chief Vladimir Korolyov said on November 22 that the aviation branch of the Navy would get six Su-30SMs by the end of this year.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led
