How Are Sanctions Hamstringing The Production Of Russia’s Domestic Airliners?
Following the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the West slapped the Russian aviation industry with comprehensive sanctions. This caused massive shock waves throughout the sector, and overnight, the country’s production of regional airliners shuttered to a halt. Over two years on, the Russian production of regional airlines remains in limbo. The future of Russia’s once touted Sukhoi Superjet 100 remains in doubt, and none have been produced since the start of the invasion. But it’s not just the Superjet – all other Russian regional aircraft (MC-21, Tu-214, Il-114, and Baikal) are affected too.
