In my understanding, special boards have 4 engines, or is this not special enough? )))

[donavi49]

Modern boards on the 1 engine are flying quite well. Therefore, the requirement of 4 engines is gone.

[Shurik70]

What creative creator had the idea to put the Russian flag on board? You look from the side on the ground - just symbolism. Below - the shark smiles.

I work in aviation. They, Tu, have half of the emergency landings on one. But the piloting class, when 15 km from Krasnoyarsk the kerosene ran out, nothing, they planted it. Beast car, not in vain in a government airline.
Another case: "The plane landed in a forest a kilometer from the runway at Domodedovo Airport. Only eight crew members were on board, they were hospitalized."
In the FOREST, in the forest. They can do it if you give it on time in time.

For comparison with the landing in Krasnoyarsk without engines, a similar case with partners. In New York after takeoff a flock of migratory birds got into both engines (November), the commander managed to land on the Hudson River. The guy has been at the controls for 40 years, half in the army. Books have been written, a film has been made. For us, the best reward is not punishment.

Where is he so much. :) There is a bike that they were going to do with a three-engine a la Lockheed “Tristar”, but they did, after all, a twin-engine.

I had to build a total of 30 boards and leave only two engines on each. Savings however. And what did you do immediately on the MS-21?

didn’t it be done right on the MS-21?

MS-u still need to prove that he knows how to fly, and the Tu-204 / -214 is already quite brought to mind the plane.

The Tu-214 aircraft is the basic platform for installing on it a wide variety of special equipment in the interests of, above all, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.
Russian aviation previously reported that, as part of a state order, the aircraft factory has already manufactured a number of special-purpose aircraft: two Tu-214PUs (command post), two Tu-214ONs (Open Skies), and two Tu-214SUSs (aircraft communications center). In 2016, the Kazan Aircraft Plant completed the construction and delivery to the customer of five Tu-214SR transponder aircraft.

The news is generally encouraging. A country that has its own aircraft construction does not exactly bend, it is very good that our airlines have finally earned.
The question is - what about 30 aircraft for what period?

“A country that has its own aircraft industry will certainly not bend” is a controversial opinion, Ukraine also has / had its own aircraft industry. It all depends on the leadership of the country, on the people, on external intervention and much more ....

Do not cast a shadow over the wattle fence. More than 20 years ago, they began to produce the Tu-204.
Tu-214 deep modernization of Tu-204. Start of production of Tu-214 special equipment (which is discussed in the article) began to be produced in April 2010.
