You really want to be local on that, it is a pita dealing with companies overseas, sole suppliers, etc. At least the US and Canada have a well established working relationship and it's relatively easy operate after the sale.

Even if it were possible to buy them, I couldn't imagine how the russian's could provide adequate support which would satisfy DTA's strict requirements. The brits have been very difficult to deal with, and the cost of spare parts is astronomical.

All that and why would be buy from our enemy?
