russia-india engage in talks for the production and purchase of russian designed airliners8/27/2016 Delegates of Russian-Indian working group for modernization and industrial cooperation has been engaging Indian airliners for the possible purchase of the Sukhoi Superjet Airliner The group also has been lobbying rigorously for the Indian civil aviation authority for the validation of the SSJ 100 certificates. The Russian authorities noted that the absence of a firm order is making the process difficult.
In the present time India is looking for an international partner to manufacture a regional jet aircraft either with turboprop engines or Jet engines with the ability to carry 80-90 passengers. With indigenous production it would open up the doors for the export of such aircraft and also the creation of a military variant which can be used for various purposes. Although this type of project was started by HAL and NAL but it failed to deliver a design or anything that is tangible. In the month of March,2016 HAL announced that it is looking to pair up with a foreign aircraft manufacturer to produce a regional aircraft . The aircraft would be produced under a joint venture based on a 5-50 partnership. @MWnetwork |
