Commercial use of military transports planned

Published: 8/21/1998

The commercial use of military transport aircraft may be a source of considerable funds, believes Russian Defence Minister, Marshal Igor Sergeyev. He stated this at a meeting of the Defence Ministry collegium which discussed the legal aspects of aircraft of the military-transport aviation wing undertaking commercial air services. Sergeyev pointed to the need for extra-budget funds for the army and navy: he believes extra funds will enable aircraft equipment to be repaired. Part of the funds may be spent on organising combat training and reforming of the armed forces. "The funds thus earned should be strictly controlled and used thriftily in the interest of the army," the minister said.(DF898.3) (VZ)
