Russian Sukhoi SuperJet 100 aircraft in 2021 will be delivered in the amount of 37 pieces, said the Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Denis Manturov, reported by TASS.

“We have crossed the milestone of 200 aircraft. In 2020, 12 aircraft were shipped to customers, among the main recipients are Rossiya, Azimut, Red Wings airlines. This year we are to deliver 37, with the exception of a maximum of 10 aircraft, which may go to January - February 2022, "Manturov said.

In October last year, the minister noted that Russia plans to resume export deliveries of the SSJ 100 aircraft only after saturation of the domestic market, which, based on the current production schedule of 22-23 aircraft per year, will not occur until 2022.

The SuperJet 100 is a Russian short-haul passenger aircraft developed by Sukhoi Civil Aircraft. The maximum capacity is 103 seats. The Long Range version (SSJ 100 LR) has a flight range of over 4,000 km. For its high-speed category "C" (cruising speed - 830 km / h, maximum - 860 km / h), the aircraft can land on a very short runway - 1700 meters.
