Just for those who cant read Russian, its a 12 month delay owed to a lack of skilled missile engineers to dedicate to the project. Almaz is concurrently developing about a half dozen missile systems so resource constraints on the company are to be expected. It was never supposed to enter service in 2011 anyway. The delay is from 2012 to sometime in 2013. A lack of ground based testing facilities for navalized SAM’s also means the first test launches will be from ships.

1 additional 20380 is being built in the far east at the Amur shipyard so while a near total monopoly it is, it isnt a complete monopoly.

The cheap corvette will probably just turn out to be some additional Project 21631 “Buyans.” Its unlikely there is some other class on the drawing boards given the funding challenges they currently face.

It has a terminal range of 80km’s and a max speed in excess of Mach 10. You cant pretend to gauge speed or range by eyeballing a video.

Severnaya has a signed contract for 6 22350 frigates and 6 20380/20385 corvettes. The last of the 12 ships are to be delivered by the end of 2018 (will never happen, but that’s what the worthless piece of paper they signed says).

This means 12 frigates budgeted for at the minimum under the current GPV though since this current GPV runs through 2020 and not 2018 there will probably be a few more keels put down before 2020 that havent been signed for yet.

The An-140 order for the MoD stands at 10 right now.

You’re also missing the Su-30MK’s originally meant for China that Russia took delivery of. 4 delivered so far, but weren’t there 12 of them in total?

The 6 Yak-130’s meant for Libya will also definitely end up in VVS hands. There was a story this week on the factory desperately trying to unload them on the VVS this week.

“Embarrer has $5.5b of yearly sales. Irkut has $1.6b of sales. But gross profit of Irkut is far higher percentage. (when you remove the effect of taxes). It means Irkut is making greater part of components inhouse or inside Russia for its products. “

Completely irrelevant comparison since Irkut is not an independent company but a mere subsidiary of UAC. UAC is pretty much without question the #3 player in commercial aerospace now.

Keep in mind these numbers are for 2010 before any kind of revenue for the SSJ could be booked. Just their military sales make them bigger than Embraer.

This is just the R-37 renamed RVV-BD right?

1 PAK-FA will definitely fly at MAKS, and both might, but you wont be able to get too close to either one on the ground. You will only be able to take pics at a considerable distance.

Yeah, the Pantsir comment was very interesting. Very sad of them to spin the induction of the same 10 Pantsir’s they’ve had for 2 years now as something new.

Cant be, they just finished delivering the last D-30’s China had on order. The assembly line should still exist.

The first upgraded A-50 was supposed to have been delivered about a month ago. Does anyone have any pictures of it?

The Aeroflot seats look terrible frankly. Armavia went with much nicer leather ones.

Il-476 is cheaper I believe and thats what drove the decision to fund the program.

Actually, nope. Looks like Baltisky has been fully and thoroughly raided by its owners (OPK) and all productive assets sold off. The only thing that remains of the enterprise is its administrative offices. OSK says it likely will not acquire what little is left of the enterprise.

I had thought OSK bought it from OPK back in 2009 when it first went into receivership, but that deal was apparently never finalized and now likely will never be.

Baltisky got the contract for Rosatoms floating NPP. I think OSK wants Baltisky to focus on civil projects.
