Ukraine's Radionix, which supplies upgrade packages for Russian-made fast jets and air defence missile systems, used the SAHA event in Istanbul to pursue partnership opportunities with Turkish industry.
Ukraine-based Radionix, a developer and manufacturer of radio-electronic protection complexes for aviation equipment dubbed Omut in various versions, was a quiet but notable presence at last week's SAHA expo in Istanbul.

Radionix proposes three main upgrades: the multifunction Esmerelda radar designed to replace the Phazotron N019 aboard MiG-29s, the NIIP N001 in the Su-27 and the Omut-KM new-generation EW system.
