Deputy head of the Saudi Arabian Navy Admiral Ibrahim Nasir said Tuesday that his country is interested in Russian ships, particularly the new Steregushchy-class corvette, according to Sputnik.

"Yes, we are interested, that's why we are here, and we are not only talking about the navy. We are interested in frigates, corvettes and guard ships," he said.

"It's too early to compare prices, evaluate logistic and then we can make actual decisions," he added at the Army-2015 forum in the Moscow region.
