We already had many accidents with Russian airplanes , we lost many lives of our good people we cannot afford buy Russian planes again. Best choice is airbus and on the fighter jets my opinion is Rafael , su-30 and mig-31 if possible.

How about FGFA?
Airbus certainly makes excellent air crafts. But it will never sell its technology. Iran needs to have its own technology since, you never know what future brings. Those Russian planes you mentioned were old Tu-154 which were all beyond their operational age and Iran had rented them from third grade private Russian companies.
il-96 and Tu-204 have excellent safety record. And they cost quarter of Airbus price and operational expenses.
Though without technology transfer, I would prefer Airbus. The only case that can be made for these two Russian planes is if they can be fully manufactured in Iran.
That would be best
But don't rely upon a single type though.
I hear Sukhoi Superjet 100 is great passenger jet. A whole new dimension is opening up for you. Congrats and best of luck
You know, I had been to Iran once in one of the FICCI delegations. My family owns a small import-export company, on that relation.
Hehe..thanks..Thank you. You are right on that.
Wonderful. I hope your visit was pleasant. Hopefully there will be other visits in future as your business grows.

Ilyushin Il-96
Produced 1993–present
Number in service : 14
Unit cost : US$ 40–50 million
Standard passenger capacity : 262 seats
the Il-96-300 had been deemed inferior to counterparts from Boeing and Airbus, and the manufacturer could not arrange commercially viable mass production, making only one plane per year
Tupolev Tu-204
Produced 1990–present
Number in service : 41
Unit cost : US$ 35 million
Standard passenger capacity : 210 seats
First introduced in 1989, it is intended to be broadly equivalent to the Boeing 757, with slightly lower range and payload, and has competitive performance and fuel efficiency in its class. It was developed for Aeroflot as a replacement for the medium-range Tupolev Tu-154tri jet. The latest version, with significant upgrades and improvements, is the Tu-204SM, which made its first flight on 29 December 2010
Yeah that crashed killing all onboard during Indonesian Airshow.That would be best

Airbus a320 also crashed in an airshow but after some tweaking its one of the successful planes of our time. And they hit a montain not failing to do the takeoff like airbusYeah that crashed killing all onboard during Indonesian Airshow.
Smart thing for Iran would be getting boring or Airbus planes..
As for ILs and Ans nobody wants to sit on those... Those are basically uncomfortable military planes turned into passenger planes... With a lot of service and maintenance costs.

Well we suggest you instead of looking at the form think about the spirit of the slogan.What of "Marg ba Amrika" and legacy of khomeini?
