In 2025, the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) will set a record for aircraft production. This was announced by the head of UAC, Vadim Badekha.
According to him, a growth of more than 30% is expected, and 2024 was also a record year.
This is mainly due to military equipment. Growth due to the "civilian" part will come later — technically, we are only now receiving certification for the aircraft.
The head of UAC reminded that Russia is the only country in the world that produces a completely import-independent aircraft. SJ-100 is one of the most "flying" aircraft.
Operators are very satisfied, the fleet's flight hours sometimes even exceed those of Airbus or Boeing. The MC-21, SJ-100, and Il-114-300 passenger aircraft are in the final stages of testing. The production of serial machines has been organized, and the first ones will be produced this year.
Deliveries of fully domestic aircraft will start in 2026. UAC is working to reduce the cost of the machines so that domestic aircraft become competitive in both domestic and foreign markets.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that ODK revealed the technology of "growing" blades for PD-8 and PD-14 aircraft engines.
