( RIA Novosti ) - Russian arms exports will total about $7 billion in 2007, a Russian official said on Sunday.
Mikhail Petukhov, deputy head of the Federal Service for Military and Technical Cooperation, who leads the Russian delegation at the Dubai Air Show 2007, said Russian arms exports had been growing steadily in the past few years.
"The existing portfolio of orders and the growth dynamics give us the hope to expect arms exports at the level of around $7 billion in 2007," Petukhov said.
