this participation is more a sales pitch than a display. however with politics re Russians allegedly supplying Syria, things kicking off in the UN it wouldnt surprise me to see this pulled.

The issue of the Russians (Rosoboronexport) attending Farnborough has been raised in Parliament. Apparently Mr Hague is considering the matter.
An FCO spokesman said that Mr Hague was still considering the matter, but added: "Farnborough International Air Show is a commercial event run by Farnborough International Ltd. The British Government plays no part in deciding which companies are invited to the event."
