The CEO of the "Fores" company Sergey Shmotiev is ready to pay a bonus of 15 million rubles for the destruction of the first American F-16 fighter jet in the zone of hostilities between Russia and Ukraine.
“Payment for the downed F-16 is our contribution to supporting those who risk their lives every day for the security of the Motherland. We are proud of the heroism of our military and will continue to provide them with all-round assistance“, said Shmotiev.
The businessman recalled the payments for damaged Western-made tanks. “We paid 5 million rubles for the first tank and 500 thousand rubles for the following tanks. The award goes to the fighters who defend the country,” he noted.
Fores has been actively supporting the Russian army since the beginning of the war. The total amount of assistance, including the supply of equipment, humanitarian aid and financing of training units, exceeded 230 million rubles.
