Russia is ready to deliver weapons to Iran but only after the international sanctions are lifted, head of the Federal Service of Military-Technical Cooperation Dmitry Shugayev said.

"The Russian side is ready to discuss with Iran cooperation in this sphere [arms sales] on condition that practical implementation of the projects ... starts only after international restrictions are lifted," he said at the Dubai Airshow.

Shugayev noted that Iran may be interested in Russian fighters, helicopters, tanks, ships, coastal missile systems, aircraft engines and spare parts for repairing aircraft, armoured vehicles and submarines, Sputnik reported.
