Indonesia is set to buy six Sukhoi fighter jets Tuesday, a representative from Russian weapons exporter Rosoboronexport said at an airshow outside Moscow.

"The contract is for 330 to 350 million dollars. It's for six Su-30 jets. The contract will be signed at 3:00 pm (1100 GMT)," an official with Rosoboronexport told AFP at the start of Russia's major annual air show at the Zhukovsky airfield just south-east of the capital.

The Su-30 is a fighter jet first put into service in the mid-1990s.
