Question about Beriev Aircraft Company

[phantom]

I have a couple of questions about some of the Beriev aircraft:

Is the Beriev A-42 still flying ?
Is the Beriev A-42 still in development for the Russian Airforce ?
How many Beriev 12 planes are still flying ? (Ukraine, Russia, TANTK)

But Wiki is also outdated. According this article from 2010: http://en.rian.ru/analysis/20101021/161043453.html

The Russian Defense Ministry has already announced plans to purchase these aircraft. However, a 2008 plan to purchase four A-42 search-and-rescue planes, as well as their multi-role versions later on, never materialized.

And soviet transports database says:

last flight sep08; stored at the TANTK airfield, will probably never fly again and l/n there 23apr09
