Yakovlev

The green aircraft carrying serial number MSN97001 headed west after completing flight-testing with manufacturer UAC that began in August 2023.

The first flight of the new import-substituted version of Russia’s MC-21 narrowbody airliner will take place by June 30, according to the CEO of Yakovlev.

The MiG-UTS will be designed for affordability—in production and operations.

Despite the conflict in Gaza, the Middle East’s military modernization is continuing.

The first operators of Russia’s new Yakovlev MC-21 airliner were always set to face teething problems given the immaturity of the narrowbody’s PD-14 turbofan.

Plans for Sukhoi Su-35 fighters, Mil Mi-28 helicopters and Yak-130 jet trainers to enter Iranian service have reportedly been finalized.

Yakovlev, the manufacturer of the SJ-100 and MC-21 commercial airliners, opened a new aviation training center in Skolkovo Innovation Center, Moscow.

Images of two Yakovlev Yak-130 advanced jet trainers being flight tested in Isfahan, Iran, and wearing Iranian Air Force colors were published online on Sept. 2.

Russian aircraft manufacturer Irkut Corporation has changed its name to Yakovlev.
