The future of the aviation industry in Russia will be determined by the development of computing power and software," said Hero of Russia, Flight Test Director of PJSC "Yakovlev" Roman Taskaev.
According to him, the industry is waiting for new aircraft, new engines, new systems. Much is aimed at improving safety, efficiency and comfort. New materials and design methods are emerging, including the use of artificial intelligence.
The main thing is the development of computing power and software. When I started, everything was analog. Today, even a child holds a phone with powerful computing capabilities, and the plane becomes, in fact, a "smart machine".
The promising MC-21 airliner has so far performed 19 certification flights, bench tests are actively underway, and evidentiary documentation is being provided, said Dmitry Yadrov, head of Rosaviatsia. At the same time, import substitution of the aircraft has so far "stalled" in replacing five foreign systems.
