Perhaps most of the products shown at the fairs are wooden or plastical models. It's not even a prototype. Technical and physical infrastructure is required for a successful product to enter any army inventory. They need to be tested and developed for many years. You cannot produce a successful military product in such a short time as you can pull a rabbit out of a hat. To take the products at the fairs seriously, it is enough to look at the producing company. It doesn't matter if the range in the catalog data is 1 km or 10000 km.

Don't kill the messenger as I take this with a grain of salt as well imo. They would be better off importing Chinesium loitering munitions.

Don't ask me my friend probably looking to make some quick cash. Unlikely anybody is interested in it considering the many, many options on the table.

What's the estimated worth of all destroyed Armenian equipment?
at the end of the war, drones alone made more than 2 billion dollar damage, with 7 S300 systems and so on. Ilham Aliyev also said yesterday again that We destroyed 7 S300 systems during the war.

@AzeriTank
I found this article but the primary source is Azeri:


If the 5 b figure is correct, the damage that has been caused to the Armenian forces will cripple them for at least 15 to 20 years.
