"The agreement on Sukhoi Superjet 100 deliveries could be signed here at the MAKS tomorrow if the negotiations are successful," Ali Vatani, the Iranian official, told RIA Novosti on Tuesday.
Earlier on Tuesday, Iranian Vice-President for Science and Technology Affairs Sorena Sattari said in an interview with Sputnik in Moscow that Tehran is keen on acquiring Russian Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft.
Sattari arrived in Moscow on Monday at the head of high-ranking delegation to take part in International aerospace show MAKS-2015. It opened on Tuesday on the airdrome of the Mikhail Gromov Flight Research Institute in the town of Zhukovsky to the southeast of Moscow. It will continue through August 30.
Organizers of the show expect a greater number of participants and visitors than the one reported at MAKS-2013, according to TASS news agency.
MAKS-2015 is playing host to 150 companies from 23 foreign countries and over 580 companies from various regions of Russia.
