Russia discovered a fraud that caused millions of dollars in damages to the country's public coffers.

Andrey Silyakov, a government servant, was involved in selling lots of scrap and scrap pieces from the aircraft factory. The Mig-31 fighter is an airplane like no other, it is huge and reaches speeds impossible for other fighters, even the most powerful.

The hoax occurred when Silyakov sold four entire aircraft if they were lots of scrap. This resulted in a unit price of around eleven reais.

The intention would be to sell the four aircraft later, perhaps to Russia's own air force, where it would then be a big profit for the operation.
