Long-range version of MS-21 may appear in Russia

13

After the introduction of Western sanctions, the Russian aviation industry got the opportunity to develop independently to meet the needs of domestic air carriers and the demand for aircraft in countries that do not cooperate with the West. The medium-haul narrow-body airliners MS-21 and Sukhoi Superjet New, the long-range wide-body Il-96-400M appeared, and the development of aircraft for regional and small aviation began.

At the same time, recently on the sidelines of SPIEF-2023, UAC General Director Yury Slyusar in an interview TASS said that the aforementioned MS-21 may have a long-haul narrow-body version. According to him, it will conditionally be something similar to the Airbus A321 XLR, which will be able to carry out non-stop flights on the Moscow-Vladivostok route. He clarified that the UAC is also studying the possibility of remotorizing the Il-96 - creating a twin-engine version and producing a shortened version of the modernized Tu-214 with an increased flight range.



It should be noted that the standard MS-21 has a maximum flight range of 5100 km, while the specified long-range MS-21-400LR for 250 seats will reach up to 12 km. The market really needs such an aircraft, because sending, for example, half-empty versions of the Il-000 for 96-300 seats over the same distances or a medium-haul narrow-body airliner with an intermediate landing costs much more. Therefore, it is likely that an improved Il-435M based on the MS-62 will appear.

    The MS-21 medium-haul narrow-body airliner is not yet on the lines, but the long-haul MS-21 has already been announced. After 2030, there may and will be MS-21. Now there is a medium-haul Tu-204/214 on the lines, which already flies as a long-haul one. Tu-204/214 has no restrictions on flights, it is not subject to sanctions. What prevents the release of 25 pieces. per year Tu-204/214? MS-21 will fly on domestic routes and to countries where it is possible to agree. NATO countries and their satellites, and these are 52 countries, are closed to MS-21. Sanctions for a long time, for 25 years.

      Lack of production base.
      Until it is expanded to 10 aircraft per year, the MS-21 will already be ready.

      Today Mishustin was at Gorbunov.

      The government decided to allocate almost 42 billion rubles from the National Wealth Fund (NWF) for the development of a project to increase the production of Tu-214 civil aircraft. In total, the project requires 83 billion rubles, and the rest of the funds can be raised through Rostec bonded loans, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said at a meeting on aircraft construction in Kazan.

      It is planned that the decisions made will allow the production of 20 Tu-214 airliners annually by 2027, increasing production to half of this volume already in 2025.

        Plan for the production of MS-21 on the line in 2030. It may be like that. About the production base, industry, personnel, the government had an attempt to get rich, fill it with money to make a modern controller (chip). This was before the Ukrainian events. Alas. We turned to Taiwan and everything was quickly done there. An analysis of RF capabilities of R / E showed a complete loss of competencies in some areas, without which neither the development nor the production of such controllers - chips is possible. It takes 15 years to reach the capabilities of Taiwan.
        One hope for Kazan is that they will be able to quickly establish the serial production of the Tu-204/214.

      while we dream of releasing at least 10 Tu-214s a year, God forbid, and you are already dreaming about 25 here.
      In the meantime, Boeing only produces the B-737 model at 45 aircraft per month, I emphasize again (PER MONTH), and not per year, not counting the production of other models B-767, B-777, B-787
      Only now you can imagine what kind of ass the officials from the Ministry of Aviation drove us into, and all because of kickbacks from the purchase of finished aircraft, so they did everything to buy as much as possible and produce as little as possible themselves. But the most annoying thing is that all of them, as they were in their lured places, are sitting there, only they have already "changed their shoes."

      Yesterday the news came that Aeroflot bought two Boeing 737-900s, i.е. no service from the company, no components, no insurance, but bought. This once again confirms the anti-people, venality of the liberal comprador power of the Russian Federation. What prevents Aeroflot from giving this money to Il-96, Tu-214. The answer is that the development dates back to Soviet times and the aircraft had a military-civil purpose. Three people is not a disadvantage.

        They are not available, everything that is in production is scheduled for years to come.

        Well, the “comprador power” yesterday allocated 214 billion rubles for the development of Tu-42 production, in addition to the 12 billion allocated earlier.

    You will not believe it, but an intergalactic ship may appear in Russia. You just have to be patient a little.

      One gets the impression from such writings: in Russia everything can be and deadlines are set, but it will never be, with rare exceptions, which confirms the rule. The bureaucratic monster of the Russian Federation, accustomed to irresponsibility, plunders everything and fails, because the Russian Federation has become a country of broken promises, from the president to the last of the officials.
