Russia's Technodinamika Holding company seeks to produce a number of components for the country's new airliner MC-21.

Russia's Technodinamika Holding company is planning to substitute a number of components being made abroad for a new Russian passenger plane, MC-21, including the fuel system, airborne auxiliary power and other equipment, the company's Design Center Director Viktor Nikolenko told Sputnik.

"We delivered for this aircraft [МС-21] only landing gear components so far, but we have a number of proposals to design the electrical power supply system components, airborne auxiliary power, system parts, including the fuel system. As of today many of these components are being delivered for MC-21 from abroad," Nikolenko said.

According to Nikolenko, products developed by Technodinamika for МС-21 have not yet reached contracting stage due to preparations for the aircraft's maiden flight.
