The Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Plant named after Y. A. Gagarin is completing the construction of a third chamber for applying radio-absorbing coatings. This was announced by Dmitry Protchenko, technical director of KnAAZ.
According to him, the new chamber is planned to be integrated with a robotic complex.
We are finishing the construction of the third chamber for applying radio-absorbing coatings and plan to integrate a robotic complex into the processes of applying RPC, which will allow us to move away from manual labor and optimize technological processes.
The plant is also implementing conveyor technologies and modern solutions for the production of entirely Russian new-generation aircraft, noted OAK General Director Vadim Badeha.
Recall that KnAAZ is a key manufacturer of 5th-generation Su-57 and 4th-generation Su-35S fighters. The plant has already been loaded with orders until 2030.
