After the Russian market is saturated with SJ-100 aircraft, the domestic aircraft industry will face the question of what to do next with the manufacturing plant in Komsomolsk-on-Amur? Cooperation with India on this project will come in handy, "Perviy Technicheskiy" was told by aviation expert, editor-in-chief of Avia.ru, Roman Gusarov.
He clarified that this is not about production in India instead of Russia, but in addition to the aircraft industry.
We will launch mass production, saturate the market in 10 years, and what will happen to this plant next? With these people and their competencies. It makes no sense for us to build two plants or double it.
Gusarov added that it is beneficial for Russia to transfer the technological process to India, supply them with components, engines and increase the total production of Superjets.
This is beneficial in every way, the Indian market is larger than the Russian one. Often, licensed production is more profitable than producing on your own.
In January 2026, the United Aircraft Corporation concluded a contract with the Indian state corporation Hindustan Aeronautics on joint activities, regulating cooperation in the field of Superjet 100 aircraft production in the republic. The start dates for the production of aircraft are unknown.
