Russian airliners will be equipped with Belarusian parts

The Governor of Khabarovsk Krai visited Minsk on a business visit. During the negotiations with the Belarusian President, a verbal agreement on cooperation in the aircraft industry was reached. First of all, we are talking about the Sukhoi Superjet 100, or rather, its import-substituting version SJ-100.


Belarus is ready to become a permanent supplier of parts for the United Aircraft Corporation. Moreover, this country has about a dozen specialized enterprises capable of helping Russia revive civil aviation.

There are large repair complexes in Minsk, Baranovichi, Orsha. In Zhitkovichi there is a motor-building plant that produces gear pumps. There are enterprises that have established connections with the world's largest suppliers of aircraft parts.


Moreover, the President of the Republic of Belarus is personally interested in developing business relations. The industry of this country is focused on long-term cooperation with the Russian Federation. If there is such a need, then cooperation can be established right now.

The Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aviation Plant named after Yuri Gagarin is one of the largest enterprises not only in Khabarovsk Krai, but also in Russia. SJ-100 passenger airliners are assembled there.

By the way, more than a hundred suppliers are already taking part in the construction of the import-substituting model. Belarusian enterprises will soon join them, since a verbal agreement on this has been reached at the highest level.

As for the SJ-100, work on it continues. At the production center of PJSC Yakovlev in Komsomolsk-on-Amur, there are now more than two dozen airliners at various stages of readiness.


Domestic parts in by plane are becoming more numerous, each of them is not inferior to foreign ones. Some are even better, but at the same time cheaper. How can one not remember the regular buttons that used to have to be ordered from the USA. They cost $500 each.

The governor of Khabarovsk Krai invited the head of Belarus to visit the Komsomolsk-on-Amur aircraft plant. There is a whole cluster there where they assemble not only civilian but also military aircraft.

The Belarusian company Belavia is also interested in close cooperation and the earliest possible entry into production capacities of KnAAZ. They urgently need new SJ-100 airliners.
