Wi-Fi will be available on all Russian aircraft starting in 2028, Minister for Digital Development Maksut Shadayev has told TASS on the sidelines of the CIPR-2024 conference.

"We will launch [a satellite] constellation, I think, by 2028," said Shadayev in response to a question.

In February, the minister mentioned that the first batch of Russian communication satellites for internet use in a highly elliptical orbit will be formed and launched by 2026.

As part of the plan, 737 low-orbit communications satellites will be put into orbit by 2030.
