According to the source, nine lawsuits have been registered in the courts against the plant from "Energosbyt Plus" for 20 million rubles. Also, PJSC "Il" (part of UAC) demands the return of 184.6 million under a state contract for the maintenance of military transport aircraft.

According to preliminary data, the plant was acquired by Rostec in poor financial condition. The An-22 aircraft was not serviced before its last flight.

As a reminder, earlier this week, on December 9, a crash occurred in the Furmanovsky district of the Ivanovo region of a transport An-22 aircraft. There were seven crew members on board.
