Serial production of the Tu-214 passenger aircraft will be launched in stages. Russian Industry and Trade Minister Anton Alikhanov told reporters this, outlining some details of the plan, including expected production volumes.

According to him, all necessary modifications will be completed in the near future. He expects to produce eight Tu-214 airliners in 2026, 12 in 2027, and 20 annually starting in 2028.



A key step toward launching production of these aircraft is the Tu-214's receipt of a certificate of approval for a major change to its standard design. The Kazan Aircraft Plant named after S.P. Gorbunov (a subsidiary of PJSC Tupolev, a subsidiary of PJSC United Aircraft Corporation, controlled by the Rostec state corporation) has already completed the bulk of the large-scale modernization and technical re-equipment of its production facilities.

Alikhanov clarified that the Russian Federation had developed a state-of-the-art avionics suite for the Tu-214. Furthermore, Russian aircraft designers had created the first domestically produced anti-collision warning and ground proximity warning systems. This is a very significant achievement. technological step.

A single company produces them for the global aircraft industry, and we were able to overcome their global monopoly. Now, these proven systems will be installed on other aircraft models.

– Alikhanov explained.

It's worth noting that the Tu-214, with its modern domestic avionics suite and components, received a certificate of approval from the Federal Air Transport Agency (Rosaviatsiya) for a major design change. According to Russian Transport Minister Andrei Nikitin, this pave the way for serial production of these aircraft for delivery to Russian airlines.

    Whatever one may say, without the "bad" Soviet past, today's efficient managers can't do anything, and don't know how to do anything, except PR, of course, in which they are ahead of the rest of the world, led by a fan of raking sports. laughing

        He would have faced the same fate as many who weren't from the USSR, to The Hague or the gallows! The great Stalin even considered the traitors who still hide behind the shield and might of Soviet arms!

      In general, there's no future without a foundation in the past, unless it's imported, of course. Remember: who built the Trans-Siberian Railway and other major railways? The Russian Empire. And where did the USSR's automobile industry come from? Mass-produced 1.5-ton trucks and engines from the US in the 1930s. Who built the VAZ? Italian FIAT.
      Nothing comes from nothing. It is always based on something.

        The Trans-Siberian Railway, which the Russian Empire "built," immediately had to be rebuilt and expanded... The Trans-Siberian Railway, already in 1905, was not ready for the challenges of the times, as a result of which the Russian Empire lost the Russo-Japanese War...

          It's clear that the Trans-Siberian Railway wasn't fully completed by 1905, and it's been under construction throughout its history. This included adding a second track and electrification in the USSR. Yes, it still needs reconstruction.

            History of the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway
            The first stage, from 1891 to 1904, was built simultaneously from two ends: from Chelyabinsk and Vladivostok. The second stage, from 1904 to 1916, was completed when the Russo-Japanese War threatened the security of the Chinese Eastern Railway (CER)—another section of the Trans-Siberian Railway that ran through Manchuria. A new section along the Amur River was built in its place. The official opening of the entire line took place in 1916, when a train for the first time traveled the entire route from Chelyabinsk to Vladivostok without stopping.
            Thus, this great construction project was completed before the Bolshevik revolution and took place without the GULAG, without mass human casualties and all sorts of Leninist-Stalinist abominations and crimes.

              During the construction of the Trans-Siberian Railway, convicts were used; this fact is described in literature.

    Who are these people and what does they have to do with aviation? They're like a salesperson in a store, not responsible for the quality or the delivery of a particular product. They're not responsible for the planes and can change their plans without any consequences. They're just cardboard cutouts who aren't responsible for anything! And those who are responsible are keeping quiet? Where's the young, crony air traffic controller with the status of chief?

    "will be launched", "some details of the plan", "expected volumes", "all necessary modifications will be completed", "will be installed"...
    Another "blah-blah-blah" from another effective manager.
    Everything is in the future, everything is a pipe dream, everything is in the form of vague promises and prospects.
    Where are the words: “plan”, “obligations”, “control”, “implementation”, “responsibility”?!

      This character, while still governor of the Kaliningrad region, when asked, if I'm not mistaken, by a mother of many children "why" subsidies, answered "for the sake of it"...

      How such "talents" get to the top, and not end up sweeping yards, is unclear... but it is clear why they have no results... for the hell of it!!!

    Look, the "great" bourgeois coward and weakling will sign a peace treaty with the fascists in which Russia will be relegated to the role of a colony, and all these projects will be safely shut down, and we'll be able to fly abroad as before! The money has already been stolen by the bourgeois's friends, so everything will continue as usual. It will be exactly like with Chubais and all that Yeltsin-Putin riffraff!

      Flying is a strong word. Sanctions and embargoes won't be lifted anytime soon, and they might not be lifted at all.

    Judging by the fact that in 25th they didn’t produce a single one, I wouldn’t particularly trust the words of these chatterboxes.
