The construction of new production buildings and the renovation and modernization of infrastructure continue at the Irkutsk Aviation Plant. The construction of a garage complex for the flight test unit and the reconstructed building 142 will be completed in the near future.

The projects became part of a large-scale enterprise modernization program. The construction of a garage complex for special equipment of workshop 216 began last year.

The area of the building is almost 4,000 square meters. It will house repair and parking boxes, as well as an administrative and amenity building.

The parking box has 12 gates for easy movement of equipment. It will service vehicles for cleaning the airfield, starting engines and treating aircraft with anti-icing compounds. The repair area is equipped with an overhead crane, an aggregate section and inspection pits. Completion of work is scheduled for early May.

Currently, the plant produces Su-30 fighters, Yak-130 new-generation combat trainers and is working on the creation of the MC-21 airliner. 

Earlier www1.ru reported that 200 aircraft will be built in Russia by 2030: there are guaranteed buyers with money.
