Technical characteristics of the aircraft ms 21. Deep spin. State of modern Russian aviation. Economical, technological, domestic

Did you know that last years aviation industry did not design or assemble new models passenger aircraft(not counting long-haul vehicles), limiting itself to the modernization of the old ones. Boeing and Airbus not so long ago began to make such curved ends of the wings, which are in the photo. This design allowed saving 1-1.5% of fuel. And also a gearbox was invented with interesting design inventions, which made it possible to reduce the weight of the engine and save 15% of fuel during operation.

Russia shocked the aviation industry by announcing the successful test flight of a new medium-haul passenger aircraft MS-21 - this is how the world's leading business television channel CNBC reports. On Sunday, a new Russian passenger aircraft MS-21 made its first test flight in Irkutsk. The flight duration was 30 minutes, it took place at an altitude of 1000 m at a speed of 300 km/h. The liner was operated by test pilots, heroes of Russia Oleg Kononenko and Roman Taskaev.

“The mission has been completed in full. The flight took place in the normal mode. No remarks preventing the continuation of testing have been identified, ”the press service of Irkut quoted Kononenko as saying.

According to CNBC, the Russian aircraft with a capacity of 163 to 211 passengers and a maximum flight range of 6,000 km will try to compete with the Boeing 737 and Airbus A320. The TV channel also cites the words of the Russian manufacturer that the new aircraft is superior to existing competitors.

In particular, the widespread use of polymer composite materials and a new generation engine, which reduces fuel consumption, is emphasized. Direct operating costs will be 12-15% lower than those of direct competitors.

Irkut already has an initial portfolio of 175 "firm orders" that will support production capacity "in the coming years," the TV channel notes.

It is no secret that the MS-21, due to a fortunate combination of circumstances, noticeably outperforms its Western competitors in almost all technical specifications. And all because five years ago the giants of the world aircraft industry - Airbus and Boeing - did not dare to develop fundamentally new aircraft and limited themselves to a deep modernization of existing models.

This is how the projects of the Airbus A320NEO and Boeing 737MAX families appeared. More recently, these liners began to enter the fleets of airlines. Their main difference from their predecessors is the new engines of Pratt & Whitney's PurePower series and CFM International's Leap-X series (owned by GE and Snecma). These motors are almost 15% more economical than all the others power plants, including those that are on the current Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 families. Their developers managed to achieve such indicators through the use of a number of revolutionary technologies in the design of new engines. For example, in the case of Pratt & Whitney, these are special gearboxes that allow the turbines to spin faster and the fans slower. This innovation reduced the number of blades by about 1500 and drastically reduced the weight of the new engines, which in turn made them less noisy. True, engines are only one, albeit a very important aspect. Advanced European and american liners also received new wingtips in the form of shark fins, which can reduce fuel consumption by another 1–1.5%.

Thus, the overall fuel economy in the operation of modernized Western aircraft will be about 16%. But for the MS-21, this figure will almost certainly exceed 22%. And the point here is not only in a specially created modification of the Pratt & Whitney engines that the MS-21 is equipped with. Much more important is the fact that the airframe of our new liner is almost 40% composed of composite materials, and the wings are almost 100% at all. The so-called black wings are a revolutionary innovation for narrow-body aircraft. Their use significantly reduces the total weight of the liner structure and promises truly fantastic benefits during operation.

Now the technologies for manufacturing all-composite wings are Boeing, the Canadian Bombardier and our UAC. But since Airbus and Boeing for their NEO and MAX families did not begin to make fully composite wings, but decided to leave aluminum ones, their next programs for creating new narrow-body aircraft using this technology will be launched no earlier than in ten to fifteen years.

First flight of MS-21

Marina Lystseva writes:

On May 28, 2017, the first flight of the new MS-21-300 passenger aircraft took place at the airfield of the Irkutsk Aviation Plant, a branch of Irkut Corporation PJSC (part of UAC).

The flight duration was 30 minutes, it took place at an altitude of 1000 meters at a speed of 300 km / h.

We arrived the day before yesterday in the morning and immediately rushed to the plant. MS-21 prepared for taxiing.

2

The weather was just right for #lyszing.

3

The plane ran along the runway, at the end of which technicians ran up to it and inspected the landing gear.

4

We ran, we looked, everything is fine.

5

He turned around and drove back to the hangar.

6

By the way, while we were standing and waiting for a run, a downpour began, under which everyone was pretty wet.

7

Yesterday morning we arrived at eight o'clock in the morning, but still did not have time to remove the roll-out from the hangar.
The film crew was rehearsing how they would film the exit of the pilots to the head of the Irkut, and the photographers ran a little around the plane.

8

Tokunaga flew in for one day from Japan with a transfer in Khabarovsk.

9

Heel to protect the fuselage from tail-strike (literally "tail strike").

13

Why 51? I have no idea.

16

For the first time in the history of domestic aircraft construction, an airliner is offered to customers with two types of engines - PW1400G from Pratt & Whitney (USA) and PD-14 ODK (Russia).

17

New generation engines have reduced fuel consumption and low noise and emission levels.

18

The PD-14 is not yet ready, so the first flight took place with American engines.

19

The flight was scheduled for 11 am, 2 hours before we were taken to the field so as not to interfere with the plane.

20

The Yak-130 escort plane took off first.

21

And at 11:15 MS-21 soared into the sky.

22

Yeah .... I thought ... I should have taken a point in the middle of the strip, and not at the end ...

23

If you estimate visually, then the run of the MS-21 was about 900 meters ..

24

The Yak-130 was flying in parallel at the time of takeoff, video was being filmed from it.

25

The flight plan included checking the aircraft for stability and controllability, as well as the controllability of the engines.

26

In accordance with the program, during the flight, a simulated landing approach was performed, followed by a pass over the runway, climb and turn. This technique is typical for the first flight of new types of aircraft.

27

The first test flight always takes place with the landing gear extended.

28

After takeoff, we jump into the bus and rush to the hangar in order to have time to climb onto it. On the way, we observe the people outside the territory.

29

We rise to the hangar.

30

Everyone is waiting to pass.

31

Two days before that, there was a rehearsal of the flight, only instead of the MS-21, the An-12 Irkut flew over the runway.

32

I went low, I had already decided that there would be a landing.

33

But no, again gained altitude.

34

And it's beautiful past us...

36

At this time, applause is heard from all sides ...

37

How do you like the cabin glazing?

38

Beauty.

39

Turned around for landing.

42

A few more minutes of waiting...

43

A video is circulating on the net, as someone filmed a takeoff from the territory of those warehouses.

44

Plop!

45

He rolled, and we ran down from the hangar in order to have time to film the exit of the pilots.

56

Spectators are not yet allowed to the plane, only a few photographers and videos.

59

And here it is, an exciting moment. Door opened.

61

And to thunderous applause, the test pilots go out onto the ladder.
The plane was piloted by test pilots, Heroes of Russia Oleg Kononenko and Roman Taskaev.

62

Report to the President of the Corporation "Irkut" Oleg Demchenko.
Oleg Kononenko: "The flight task was completed in full. The flight was in the normal mode. There were no remarks preventing the continuation of the tests."

63

And the informal part began.

64

Yuri Slyusar, head of the KLA.

65

The pilots took off into the sky several more times.

66

Vitaly Naryshkin, deputy chief designer, was also torn off the ground.

68

Roman Taskaev: "The characteristics and operating modes of the engines were confirmed, all aircraft systems worked without failures."

71

Oleg Demchenko: "Today is a historic day for our team and the entire large team working on the creation of the MS-21."

72

"We have invested in our aircraft the most advanced technical solutions that will provide increased passenger comfort and attractive economic characteristics airlines. And today I am happy to announce that the first flight of the MS-21 was successful! Congratulations to all participants of the program on our common holiday!"

73

President of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) Yuri Slyusar:
"MS-21 was created in broad cooperation, where, along with Irkut, other enterprises of the UAC are actively involved: AeroComposite, Ulyanovsk and Voronezh aircraft plants, UAC-Integration Center. This is an important stage in the formation of a new industrial model of the UAC.

74

"According to our estimates, in the next 20 years, the global demand in the MC-21 segment will be about 15,000 new aircraft. I am sure that airlines will highly appreciate our new aircraft."

75

MS-21-300 is a new generation passenger aircraft with a capacity of 163 to 211 passengers, aimed at the most massive segment of the air transportation market.

85

The MS-21 aircraft will provide passengers with a qualitatively new level of comfort due to the largest fuselage diameter in the class of narrow-body aircraft. Such a solution will significantly expand the personal space of each passenger, allow them to pass the service trolley and provide airlines with a reduction in the turnaround time at airports.

86

Thanks to the installation of large windows, natural light is increased passenger cabin. The aircraft will maintain comfortable air pressure for passengers and an improved microclimate.

87

An innovative ergonomic cockpit has been developed for MC-21 pilots.

89

High demands on the comfort and economic efficiency of the aircraft required the introduction of advanced technical solutions in the field of aerodynamics, engine building and aircraft systems.

92

The MS-21 aircraft surpasses existing analogues in terms of its flight performance and economy.
The main contribution to the improvement flight performance aircraft will introduce a wing made of polymer composite materials, the world's first designed for narrow-body aircraft with a capacity of over 130 passengers. The share of composites in the structure of the MS-21 aircraft - over 30% - is unique for this class of aircraft.

95

The MC-21 aircraft meets the advanced requirements for environmental protection.

96

The estimated reduction in direct operating costs for the operation of the MS-21 aircraft will be 12-15% compared to analogues.

97

The starting portfolio of firm orders for 175 MS-21 aircraft provides loading production capacity for the coming years. Advance payments have been received for firm orders.

98

The main Russian participants in the program are: the lead contractor is the Irkut Corporation (part of the UAC), the leading enterprises of the UAC, the Rostec State Corporation.

As well as NEO and MAX - replicas of the last century, where only new engines are identical to the MS-21 engines.

For example, it was also possible to remotorize the Tu-214 airframe with these engines. As well as to implement a high-speed wing with a span of up to 36 meters.

What is calling card MS-21, though it is not clear why a completely black wing. It was enough to apply new alloys from RUSAL. And without these alloys, everything would look no worse.

I wouldn't be surprised if the reverse process starts soon. Some elements of the black wing will begin to be made of metal.

According to him, the test flight of the MS-21 does not yet indicate the complete success of the project.

This opinion of the radio station "Moscow speaking" was expressed by the honored pilot of Russia, a member of the commission under the President of Russia on the development of general aviation Yuri Sytnik.

“It took off, didn’t stay on the runway, didn’t fall apart in the air, the aircraft’s systems worked – but this is a local success. Next, you need to look: will it correspond to the parameters that the creators stated, will the calculations be confirmed, its aerodynamic quality, weight, range, its operational parameters, how reliable and maintainable it will be. If you invest such loot, then you can make candy out of anything. But why spend such billions if there is already such a machine - the Tu-204SM. Therefore, I am not optimistic about MS-21.”

==================================
Our old friend, Hero of Russia, honored test pilot Magomed TOLBOEV called the editorial office. The reason is joyful - the first flight of the Russian medium-haul aircraft MS-21. Here is a short conversation between the chief editor and the legendary test pilot.
- Magomed Omarovich, would you like to sit at the helm of this aircraft yourself?
– With pleasure, because at one time, back in the distant 80s, I flew an Airbus-319. Our and the French guys were then preparing for the Hermes space program. We dreamed that someday we would have the same car. Finally the dream came true. I think we should first of all thank Oleg Demchenko, President of Irkut Corporation PJSC, CEO- General designer of OKB im. A.S. Yakovlev". This is a unique organizer and designer, one of the representatives of the Yakovlev design school. And the second, of course, to Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin for his principled support of this aircraft when the MS-21 program was on the verge of failure. But he assured everyone - we will find the money and take to the air! Finally, the patriots won.
- When will domestic engines be installed on the aircraft?
– Thanks to this aircraft, the program for the production of the latest PD-14 aircraft engine was revived. If there were no MS-21, then our Russian engines would not exist either. There would be Rolls-Royces, Pratt-Whitney. And what's on initial stage installed by P&W, this is normal. And it was necessary to do so in order to reduce the time of flight tests.
- I think that the PD-14 will be on the MS-21 in two years.
- Will. Three thousand hours of bench tests have already passed, flight tests have begun. It remains to tidy up the electronics, the fuel management system. Everything has to be digital. This is the only one. And then, before the MS-21, all control was mechanical. So it was believed that for security reasons in case of war it is better to have a mechanical control than an electronic one. But electronic gives savings, noise reduction and specific consumption fuel. The benefit is big.
But in any case, it is the human mind and its genius. This is not just electronics, he took the button, pressed it - and the numbers ran ...

If we compare this one with aircraft of the same class - with the Boeing-737 and the Airbus-320. Have you flown all of them?
- There is no doubt: our plane is no worse than others. But it won't be too "better". It's clear. Boeing has reached the highest peaks in this area. We have failed for the last 25 years... We, the Russian people, show amazing heroism: first to fail, and then to win. For 25 years, Airbus and Boeing, of course, have gone far from us. But we also reached the finish line and are not obliged to lag behind. We will go on an equal footing.
So there is nothing to compare?
- Compare? This is at the last stage, called operational. The operational flight reveals all the little things that the test pilots could not notice, and the designers could not foresee. The more flights will be made on more aircraft, the sooner we will find out all the minor flaws, with the elimination of which the aircraft will be brought to perfection.
- Magomed Omarovich, I also congratulate you, because you have done a lot to keep our civil aviation. Thanks to people like you, we always have hope that Russia will remain a great aviation power!
- Thank you. Now it's the turn for the Tu-334. Let it be called differently, but soon it will definitely return, at least to the Armed Forces.
- Will we see the Tu-334 in the sky?
- Yes, this is another strong-willed decision of President Vladimir Putin and the implementation of the patriotic, civic positions of Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin. Everyone is ready, just waiting for the go-ahead.

================================

So the Tu-214 needs to be modernized, including on PW with a thrust of 16 tons, as a larger aircraft, with larger capacity and range.

Therefore, these two aircraft are not competitors, but complement each other.

The most fundamental MS-21 is the wingspan - 36 meters.

Is it possible today for a metal wing for the MS-21 with a span of 36 meters?

Perhaps with the use of alloys from RUSAL, and with the preservation of all characteristics.

In general, the only breakthrough characteristic of the MS-21 is the pressure in the cabin at flight level. That's where you can promote composites.

But the advantages of the composite wing are very doubtful.

Let's compare. The Tu-214 wing is one and a half times larger. However, the empty weight is only 13 tons more.

I'm embarrassed to ask, but how much is 13 tons as a percentage? 30 or 35?

well, that's what
cube square

Wing made of composites solely for the sake of
aerodynamic excellence

But the weight is questionable and worth it
the price tag is not guian

Remotorize Tu-214? This has already been done - Tu-204SM. Did not help. It's not about the engine.

And attempts to revive the Tu-334 is another hole where taxpayers' money will fly into. To put it into production, a lot of money is needed, despite the fact that 20 of these aircraft will be produced at best. Will NEVER pay off. And most likely they will also want to modernize it, because it is already outdated for sure in terms of filling.

Your knowledge is amazing. It would be better if you were silent and did not create topics with a stupid name.

- TOTAL? Do you think that 13 tons is a trifle? Recalculate this weight in passengers! That's 130 people with luggage!

Oreshenko Pavel
by the number of questions you can immediately see the level

Below the plinth

Again it will be necessary for the Wikipedia guru
FAQ show

What are these magical "mermaid" alloys? Is Rusal developing materials for aviation?

Real metal.

If NEO and MAX, and along with them the MS-21, are outdated junk, then you must have reconsidered " star wars"- there are no newer aircraft in this segment. What then is modern and progressive? Tu-204?

NEO and MAX sold many years ago for many years to come.

MS-21 is not junk, but an aircraft identical in terms of engines. And the weight is identical to the A321.

Remotorize Tu-214? This has already been done - Tu-204SM. Did not help. Isn't it the engine?

It's just the engine. The Tu-214 has never been remotorized. Tu-204SM too. Do not read Wikipedia at night.

There were ideas to remotorize the Tu-204 on the V2500. However, only ideas.
There was a less economical version with English engines, but it belonged to a private investor, so he flies on them.

Are you Poghosyan?
And very similar. Discussed MS-21, and suddenly Tu.

Tu-334 in any way to the topic.

"In general, the only breakthrough characteristic of the MS-21 is the pressure in the cabin at the echelon. That's where composites can be promoted."
Your knowledge is amazing. It would be better if you were silent and did not create topics with a stupid name?

You, as an admirer of Wikipedia, simply have nothing to say.

"empty weight is only 13 tons more"
- TOTAL? Do you think that 13 tons is a trifle? Recalculate this weight in passengers! Is it 130 people with luggage?

Hard case. People with suitcases will fly on the wing.

Do you have any aviation education at all?

This is a question for you.

Without a doubt, the MS-21 is provided with orders for 10 years ahead.

Therefore, it is time to think about real innovations.

According to the ideology of MS-21, this is B787. A little more comfort and buzzwords.

However, the B787 composite wing has a lift of only
two percent better than B767. Yes, and as I wrote in the topic
basically nothing better than a wing IL-96-300.

Bolsunovsky Anatoly

This is supposedly an innovative wing.
effect has not been proven
neither in weight nor in aerodynamics

When comparing Tu-214 with B757, approximate parity is visible
when comparing A321 and MS-21, the same parity
however, what is the gain and novelty

Innovation for the sake of innovation

There is no doubt that for 10 years MS-21 is provided with orders

However, this is exactly the same obsolete aircraft.
like Tu-214

However, Tu-214

This is serial and with domestic equipment
also with the possibility of modernization and remotorization

But it is impossible to compare MS-21 and Tu-214

First of all, the wingspan

European manufacturer Airbus is working on expanding the capabilities of the remotorized A320neo narrow-body aircraft during short takeoffs and landings. runways, according to the materials of the aircraft manufacturer. At the moment, the aircraft manufacturer is conducting appropriate tests.

The performance improvement was achieved by replacing the standard panels on the wing root fairings with Kevlar ones. By optimizing the air flow, the updated elements, called SHARP (SHort Airfield Package, set for short airfields), will increase the lift of the wing. This in turn will lead to a decrease minimum speed during takeoff and landing of the aircraft and, as a result, to reduce the takeoff and landing distance.

Installing upgraded deck panels will be offered as an option. In addition, the updated element can be installed on already operated machines.

One of the reasons for the development of SHARP was Airbus' desire to provide A320 access to Rio de Janeiro's Santos Dumont airport. It is located between a mountain and a long bridge, and its runway is about 1300 m long. According to the Flightradar24 service, now only the "younger" members of the family fly there: A318 and A319.

Improved aerodynamics of the A320neo will significantly expand the scope of its application compared to its predecessor. Thus, the European aircraft manufacturer will have greater access to markets that are characterized not only short runways, but also airports located at higher elevations, as well as a hot climate.

It can be assumed that due to improved aerodynamics, the A320neo will be able to compete more successfully with the promising Russian narrow-body aircraft MS-21, one of the potential markets for which are Asian countries, including India and China.

Another consequence of the improved aerodynamics of the A320neo may be that the aircraft will force some of the smaller machines from competing manufacturers out of the market. With similar takeoff and landing characteristics, the A320neo will provide operators with a higher carrying capacity, which will improve savings on routes with dense passenger traffic.

Compared to the Tu-204 MS-21 wins almost 30% in fuel consumption per passenger-kilometer. A little more than 10% due to new engines, about 10% - because it weighs less, about 5% - due to aerodynamics, the rest - the "snowball" effect. What do you think is progress? That's a huge amount of progress in 30 years! Technology has gone on the shelf, to advance to the next 30%, a whole revolution in materials, engines, laminarization, etc. will have to be carried out. It costs a lot of money, which is why both Boeing and Airbus have postponed the introduction of an entirely new generation of narrow-body aircraft. So purely technically, the MS-21 has a chance to break through ...

And stop dreaming about Tu-204NG, Tu-334NG, etc. If we simply remotorize the Tu-204, then the gain in fuel will be only a little more than 10%, i.e. the loss to the leaders of 20% will remain. And who are you going to screw up?

Bolsunovsky Anatoly
compared to the A321 of 1994

And who are you going to be pushing?

Know the price of second hand
and there is also a neo and max 2017 release with identical engines
Tu-214 is much larger aircraft
and in terms of capacity and fuel supply

and Tu-214 terribly disliked Poghosyan

Tu-204 outperforms SSJ by almost 30% in fuel consumption per passenger-kilometer

But this is exactly what Poghosyan wanted.
do not compare SSJ with competitors
and lead the discussion

After all, the meaning of the topic
is that yesterday's innovations are not effective

So it's time to do something

Sometimes you remind me of a word bot that generates a pseudo-random set of words. Do you even read what you wrote yourself?

"MS-21 is a hopelessly obsolete aircraft." "For example, it was also possible to remotorize the Tu-214 airframe with these engines." "It's just the engine."

This is all taken from your, sorry, illiterate posts. When they prove to you that this is illiteracy, you immediately jump off the topic and start wagging: “You know the prices for second-hand clothes,” etc.
I think it is useless to continue the discussion. Don't feed the troll :(

Bolsunovsky Anatoly
aiyayay, but all he suggested was to compare the MS-21 with the A321 of 1994
i.e. 23 years ago
weight is the same engine thrust is the same

What's the point of a composite wing
and where innovations can have an effect

New neo engines deliver 16 percent fuel savings
according to the manufacturer

Tu-214 is 15 percent more spacious
that is, with identical engines with the A321
fuel consumption will be the same.

However, it is impossible to compare Tu-214 and MS-21
in terms of wingspan, these are different market segments
Tu-214 should be compared with B757
here, obviously, remotorization is needed for neo engines
with 16 tons of thrust
then there will be an obvious profit over B757

MS-21 should be compared with A321 1994

A321 1994
48 tons
220 pax
14 tons engine thrust
Wingspan A321 - 34.1 meters

MS-21 2017
48 tons
211 pax
14 tons engine thrust
Wingspan - 35.9 m

Long-haul aircraft have placed 17% more orders than the market needs, according to a recent study by major Swiss bank UBS. Like most international experts, when analyzing the market, UBS takes into account only aircraft manufactured by Airbus and Boeing, since these companies act as virtual monopolists in the civil aircraft market with a passenger capacity of more than 100 people.

Of the two aviation giants, the European Airbus is in a more vulnerable position, according to UBS. "While Airbus' portfolio of received and pending orders is significantly larger, we estimate that its largest customers are 26% overbooked, while Boeing's big customers are 2% overbooked," said UBS analyst David Strauss in a note. published report.

To ensure that all ordered aircraft are put into service, the global fleet of mainline aircraft should grow annually by 6% over the next seven years, UBS calculated. This, in turn, implies an annual increase in the volume passenger traffic by 7%.

According to Swiss financiers, unreasonably large orders were placed by Lion Air (Indonesia), AirAsia (Malaysia), IndiGo (India), VietJet (Vietnam) and Avianca (Colombia). For comparison, the list of carriers that are potentially short of planes consists of American and Chinese companies - Delta Air Lines, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines and China Eastern Airlines, China Southern Airlines.

If we consider the categories of aircraft, then the excess of orders for narrow-body aircraft is 21%, the leader is the Airbus A320 family. As for the regions, the most overheated market is China, while North America, on the contrary, lacks about 900 aircraft.
An excess number of orders for narrow-body aircraft is not the most pleasant news for the project of the promising Russian long-haul aircraft MS-21, which recently made its first flight. According to expectations, by 2037 it is planned to deliver about a thousand MS-21s.

And also in wide international cooperation.

In 2009, on the basis of the design team of the Experimental Design Bureau. A.S. Yakovlev, a design and engineering division was formed in the corporation - the Engineering Center. A.S. Yakovlev, which provides the development of MS-21. It unites and coordinates the work of scientific and industrial cooperation, which includes the Central Aerohydrodynamic Institute. Professor N.E. Zhukovsky (TsAGI) and presenters scientific institutes Russia; competence centers established within the framework of the United Aviation Corporation (UAC); domestic and foreign engineering companies that create fundamentally new developments for the MS-21.

In a single information space with the Engineering Center, specialists from the branches of the Irkut Corporation in Ulyanovsk and Voronezh are developing the design and systems of the MS-21 aircraft.

A customer-centric approach to product development was introduced in the design of the MC-21. It provides for the involvement of potential customers in the aircraft development process from the earliest stages of the project.

By 2017, the Irkut Corporation signed firm contracts for the supply of 175 MS-21 aircraft. The portfolio of "soft" orders (options and agreements of intent) exceeds 100 aircraft. At the same time, Aeroflot, the start of deliveries is 2018.

Total investment in the creation program the latest aircraft MS-21 in the middle of 2016 amounted to about 100 billion rubles, of which 80% was money received from the state in the form of various assistance, and 20% - from the Irkut Corporation.

On May 28, 2017, the new Russian civil airliner MS-21, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin announced this.

And we are very proud that it was created in our country. This is a huge victory for aircraft manufacturers, a victory for the Irkut corporation, our scientists, designers, our engineers, our workers. Your hands (of course, with some support from the state) create a modern Russian aircraft industry that moves our entire country, our economy forward," Dmitry Medvedev said.

Moscow, May 28 - Vesti.Ekonomika. The first flight of the new MS-21-300 passenger aircraft successfully took place on Sunday, May 28, 2017, at the airfield of the Irkutsk Aviation Plant, a branch of Irkut Corporation PJSC.

The flight duration was 30 minutes, it took place at an altitude of 1 thousand meters at a speed of 300 km / h. The flight plan included checking the aircraft for stability and controllability, as well as the controllability of the engines.

In accordance with the program, during the flight, an approach simulation was performed, followed by a pass over the runway, climb and turn. This technique is typical for the first flight of new types of aircraft.

The aircraft was piloted by a crew of test pilot, Hero of Russia Oleg Kononenko and test pilot, Hero of Russia Roman Taskaev.

Oleg Kononenko said that "the flight task has been completed in full." "The flight was in normal mode. There were no remarks preventing the continuation of the tests," he explained. Roman Taskaev noted: "The characteristics and operating modes of the engines were confirmed, all aircraft systems worked without failures."

Flight performance of the aircraft MS-21-300

The capacity in the two-class layout is 163 seats (16 business + 147 economy), the capacity in the dense layout is 211 seats. Maximum takeoff weight - 79 250 kg. The maximum commercial load is 22,600 kg.

The maximum flight range is 6 thousand km. The main dimensions - the length of the aircraft is 42.2 m, the wingspan is 35.9 m, the height is 11.5 m.

MS-21 flies faster than competitors and wins due to greater efficiency. According to Irkut's calculations, when using the MS-21, airlines will be able to save up to $3 million a year.

Irkut has collected 175 firm orders for MS-21, another 100 orders are under discussion. Aeroflot will be the first operator of the new aircraft. Deliveries of MS-21 will begin in late 2018 - early 2019. Aeroflot intends to buy 50 aircraft.

The catalog price of the MS-21 will be from $90 million, while the European competitor Airbus A320 - $97 million, American Boeing 737 new versions - $95 million

MS-21 is an important stage in the formation of a new industrial model in the Russian Federation

The integrators of the main systems of the MS-21 aircraft are Russian enterprises. During the implementation of the MS-21 program in Russia, competence centers were created in the field of development and production of products from composite materials. In order to introduce new technologies, a radical modernization of the production facilities of the Irkutsk Aviation Plant, a branch of PJSC Irkut Corporation, and a number of aircraft manufacturing enterprises and related industries was carried out.

The main Russian participants in the program are: the main executor is the Irkut corporation (part of the UAC), the leading enterprises of the UAC, the state corporation Rostec.

President of PJSC United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) Yuri Slyusar emphasized that the MS-21 was created in broad cooperation, where, along with Irkut, other UAC enterprises also actively participate: AeroComposite, Ulyanovsk and Voronezh aircraft plants, UAC-Integration Center.

“According to our estimates, in the next 20 years, the global demand in the MC-21 segment will be about 15,000 new aircraft. I am sure that airlines will highly appreciate our new aircraft. This is not just a flight of a new aircraft, this is the emergence of a new product that will will determine the face of the Russian civil aircraft industry", - said the head of the KLA.

MS-21-300 is a new generation passenger aircraft

MS-21-300 is a new generation passenger aircraft with a capacity of 163 to 211 passengers, aimed at the most massive segment of the air transportation market.

Thanks to the installation of large windows, the natural illumination of the passenger compartment has been increased. The aircraft will maintain comfortable air pressure for passengers and an improved microclimate.

An innovative ergonomic cockpit has been developed for MC-21 pilots. High demands on the comfort and economic efficiency of the aircraft required the introduction of advanced technical solutions in the field of aerodynamics, engine building and aircraft systems.

The MS-21 aircraft surpasses existing analogues in terms of its flight performance and economy.

The main contribution to improving the aircraft's flight performance will be made by a wing made of polymer composite materials, created for the first time in the world for narrow-body aircraft with a capacity of over 130 passengers. The share of composites in the structure of the MS-21 aircraft - over 30% - is unique for this class of aircraft.

For the first time in the history of the domestic aircraft industry, the airliner is offered to customers with two types of engines - PW1400G from Pratt & Whitney (USA) and PD-14 from the United Engine Corporation (Russia). New generation engines have reduced fuel consumption and low noise and emission levels. The MC-21 aircraft meets the advanced requirements for environmental protection.

The estimated reduction in direct operating costs for the operation of the MS-21 aircraft will be 12-15% compared to analogues.

The starting portfolio of firm orders for 175 MC-21 aircraft ensures the utilization of production capacities for the coming years. Advance payments have been received for firm orders.
