Ulyanovsk-based "Aerocomposit" to Conduct Technical Re-equipment of Mechanical Assembly Production

Yakovlev Concern sent a proposal to the Ministry of Industry and Trade

Three years ago, "Yakovlev" believed that fewer than 100 SSJ-100 aircraft would remain in the sky by 2025

The aircraft now have 100 seats in a single-class configuration instead of a two-class configuration: 12 seats in "Business" class and 75 in "Economy".

One aircraft has already started flying, the second is undergoing final assembly before its first flight

Certification flights of the domestic aircraft will be fully completed in the summer of 2026

Unlike metal, composite is not subject to age-related degradation

Airlines intend to maintain the aging fleet amid aircraft shortages

The aircraft demonstrated good handling and stability in the air

Currently, it takes up to 2.5 months to export aircraft parts

The developer of the SSJ-100 aircraft accepted the IAC's recommendations aimed at the safe operation of the aircraft

The list of approved works also includes operations with the liner's integrated computing system

The main element of the development is an automatic laying head for laying dry carbon tape
