The new TV7-117ST-01 turboprop engines developed by the United Engine Corporation (UEC, part of Rostec) have logged over two thousand hours on Il-114-300 aircraft as part of certification flight tests, the company said.
The prototypes have performed over 250 flights, Rostec emphasized. Il-114-300 aircraft are being created in cooperation with leading domestic developers and manufacturers under the auspices of UAC and include only systems and equipment of Russian production.
The power plant, consisting of two such products, surpasses foreign analogues in a number of characteristics. In particular, in takeoff mode, the engine develops increased power while maintaining high fuel efficiency for its class.
The Il-114-300 will replace the An-24, ATR-42/72, Bombardier Q-300, CRJ-100/200 on local airlines, which will improve the transport connectivity of the country's regions.
The aircraft has improved flight performance, installed a new digital flight and navigation system, and increased the use of composite materials.
