Ground testing of the systems and equipment on the second serial-production SJ-100 aircraft is currently underway in Komsomolsk-on-Amur. According to the regional government’s press service, the Russian-made aircraft is set to take to the skies before the end of this year.
The aircraft is equipped with domestically produced PD-8 engines, and its passenger cabin interior has also been developed entirely in Russia.
“Today in Komsomolsk-on-Amur, two critical objectives are being addressed simultaneously: the final preparations for the maiden flights of these new, import-substituted aircraft, and the establishment of a modern production infrastructure for their serial manufacture,” noted Dmitry Demeshin, Governor of the Khabarovsk Territory.
The Superjet was also named the best project in the Science and Technology category at the Made in Russia – 2026 awards.
