🔥 The fully import-substituted Tu-214 has completed its maiden flight
A new Tu-214 passenger aircraft, built entirely with domestically produced components, has taken to the skies. The first test flight lasted 70 minutes and was completed successfully, with no remarks. The aircraft took off in factory livery and confirmed the readiness of its core systems.
The Tu-214 is designed to carry 155 to 210 passengers and can fly up to 6,700 km nonstop. The airliner is powered by Russian-made engines and has become one of the flagship projects of import substitution in civil aviation ✈️🇷🇺
The aircraft’s main advantages are its reliable, time-tested design and relatively low production cost. The new jet is expected to strengthen the fleets of Russian airlines on medium-haul routes.
