Irkutsk Aviation Plant to deliver 27 Su-30SM fighters and 12 Yak-130 operational trainers to Russian armed forces this year, TASS reports with reference to the Deputy Minister of Defense, Yuri Borisov.

“This year Irkutsk Aviation Plant must deliver 27 Su-30SM fighters to Russian air forces and navy as well as 12 Yak-130 operational trainers in the network of the State Defense Order,” he said during his visit to the enterprise.

According to experts, Borisov said, “these figures are feasible and realistic”. “Deliveries will be started in April,” he noted.

He also added that Russian Ministry of Defense supports the enterprise by placing additional orders for Su-30SM jets. Taking into account a high export potential of products manufactured by the enterprise, he added: “The plant’s backlog represents at least three years of production and assures its development and technical re-equipping”.

Earlier president of Irkut Corporation Oleg Demchenko said that “around 30 large aircraft and 30 small aircraft will be delivered to Russian air forces in 2015”. He added that this year would be a record one in terms of deliveries of combat aircraft and operational trainers. In addition, Demchenko noted that Irkut is going to deliver eight aircraft to a foreign customer in April.

  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.
