"It should be noted that Russian aircraft producers have started working with carriers more closely, which is a surprising experience, thanks for the support. <...> We plan to increase the fleet of demanded Superjet aircraft to 192 jets by the end of the year," he said.

The Sukhoi Superjet 100 is a Russian short-range passenger jet, having a maximum capacity of 103 seats. The aircraft is meant for carriers Rossiya, Azimut, Red Wings, and Aurora.
