The fully import-substituted SJ-100 aircraft with the Russian PD-8 engine will take off and begin testing in December 2023, Head of Rostec Sergey Chemezov said in an interview with Rossiya-24 TV channel.

"I think that somewhere at the end of this year in December we will already fly a fully localized aircraft and it will begin to conduct tests," he told reporters.

The SJ 100 is the first civilian aircraft developed in Russia. Following the imposition of Western sanctions against Russia, the Ministry of Industry and Trade launched the Superjet New initiative. At the same time as the import of components is being replaced, processes related to system reliability, increasing comfort, safety, and maintaining airworthiness are being improved.

  Light combat Yak-130M
  The presentation of the Ya-130M aircraft took place at the international military-technical forum "Army-2024", which was held from August 12 to 14, 2024 at the Patriot Convention and Exhibition Center. It should be noted right away that this is not just the modernization of the Yak-130 aircraft, but the transformation of a combat training aircraft into a full-fledged light combat aircraft. In the information field, this event was marked by a number of brief reports from federal news agencies. But the project, like the Yak-130 aircraft with its unique flight characteristics, deserves a more detailed review, which we decided to do.
