At the LIMA 25 exhibition in Malaysia, the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC, part of Rostec) presented a model of the Be-200 amphibious aircraft with PD-8-200 engines, which are planned to be installed instead of the current D-436.
Work on re-engining the already legendary amphibious aircraft will begin after the latest domestic engines have completed a full cycle of testing and certification on the regional SJ-100 "Superjet" in a fully import-substituted configuration.
The thrust of the basic version of the PD-8 exceeds the D-436, amounting to 8,056 vs. 7,500 kgf, respectively. The upgrade of the units will improve the flight performance of the Be-200.
At the same time, the installation of new engines will require refinement and certification of the updated version of the amphibious aircraft.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that work on the "Baikal" aircraft has reached a dead end: it will never see the light of day.
