Russian airline Gazpromavia ordered 10 Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft for its regional routes in Russia, and announced the order at the MAKS Moscow Air Show. The order is worth $323 million at list prices. Â Vladimir Prisyazhnyuk, President of Sukhoi Civil Aircraft, commented “I’m sure that our aircraft will show its operational efficiency on the regional route network.”
With Russia having spend more than $9.5 billion in restructuring its aviation industry, this and other orders worth more than $1Billion in deals so far provided good news for Sukhoi and other Russian manufacturers. Â We expect to see additional sales for Superjet in the Russian market, despite the incursion by Bombardier with the CSeries order from Ilyushin Finance.
