With the submission of the first persons of the state, additional funds will be invested in the development of the promising PD-35 aircraft engine. This opinion was expressed by the chairman of the Civil Aviation Commission of the Public Council of Rostransnadzor, former Deputy Minister of Civil Aviation Oleg Smirnov.
He recalled that in September 2025, Russian President Vladimir Putin held a meeting on engine building in Samara.
And with the help of a blow to the table with the presidential fist, additional investments will follow in order to complete the PD-35 and bring the engine to mass production, which has no equal in the world in terms of power and other parameters.
Smirnov added that new aircraft can already be designed under the PD-35. The engine will become a new important factor in the country's engineering independence.
Russia is on the verge of the take-off of our civil aviation - and there is very little left for Putin to bang his fist on the table. Otherwise, officials, out of habit, are dragging their feet for some reason.
When creating the PD-35, the scientific and technical groundwork based on the results of the development of the fifth-generation PD-14 engine was used as much as possible. At the same time, 20 new critical technologies are being developed, including the creation of new coatings, materials, manufacturing and design technologies, as well as design solutions.
Earlier www1.ru reported that 54.47 billion rubles were found for scientific work for the aviation industry.
