Russia to supply Sukhoi Superjet 100 to Vietnam - News VietNamNet
Vietnam and Russia on September 6 reached an agreement under which Russia will supply Sukhoi Superjet 100 (SSJ100) to two air transporters: Vietnam Airlines and Vietjet Air.
Deputy Industry and Trade Minister Viktor Evtukhov made the confirmation on the sidelines of the 17th session of the Vietnam-Russia Intergovernmental Committee for Economic, Commercial, Scientific, and Technological Cooperation in Vladivostok city.
Interfax quoted Evtukhov as saying Russia will “deliver the flagship of the Russian aircraft plane Sukhoi Superjet 100 to two Vietnamese airlines: Vietnam Airlines and VietJet Air”.
However, he did not disclose the number of SSJ100s and the delivery time.
“We had silence on this issue for some time, the negotiations seemed to have stalled, but today the Vietnamese side said that the interest in the liner is maintained, and we very much hope that the citizens of Vietnam will soon be able to fly on these comfortable and safe Russian aircraft," Evtukhov said.
SSJ100 is a new aircraft family allowing its passengers to experience the mainline level of comfort. The leading-edge technologies, being the core ingredient of the Sukhoi Superjet 100 Project, penetrate its every stage – from design and development to final assembly, delivering a modern, economically efficient and globally marketable aircraft.
Sukhoi Superjet 100 features fully electronic fly-by-wire control system for piloting, landing gear extension and retraction, and a brake system to prove its high maintainability and weight perfection.
The airliner was designed and spearheaded by Sukhoi, a division of the Russian civil aerospace company (UAC), in co-operation with several foreign partners.
