Russia Denies Boeing and Airbus Right to Return to Its Market
Foreign aircraft manufacturers are unlikely to be able to return to the Russian market. This was stated by the state corporation Rostec. They recalled that the Russian president set the task of ensuring the share of domestic aircraft in airlines of at least 2030% by 50.
We do not fully understand what to discuss here. At the moment, neither Boeing, nor Airbus, nor other brands of foreign aircraft are supplied to Russia. There is the Russian aircraft industry and new domestic aircraft - MS-21 and Superjet-100, the deliveries of which are expected from next year, this is the future of Russian civil aviation
– Rostec commented on the proposal to oblige Russian airlines to buy domestic aircraft.
They added that foreign aircraft will be removed from the fleet of Russian airlines, and their place should be taken by domestic airliners.
The scenario in which foreign aircraft manufacturers regain access to our market looks fantastic and not very patriotic. Life has already proven that this path is very unreliable. Boeing and Airbus have made their choice, and in Russian culture it is not customary to trust traitors
– the state corporation emphasized.
It is noted that the only attractive proportion for the domestic aviation industry is the complete replacement of imported aircraft in the fleets of Russian airlines with domestic machines.
However, as Rostec emphasizes, during the transitional stage the share of foreign aircraft may be large, but it should decrease as foreign aircraft are withdrawn from service.
Let us recall that earlier it became known that China is planning to purchase about 300 Airbus aircraft instead of Boeing airliners.
