Profit is secondary: Russian aviation industry takes the path of "by force" at the expense of the budget

Russia lacks a global market and shareholder pressure, against this background the MC-21 and SSJ-New look different

Russia lacks a global market and shareholder pressure, but there is a government stake — funding comes from the budget, and profitability is secondary.

Such a model allows programs to be brought to completion "by force", but also makes them dependent on politics and government orders, rather than on pure economics.
