    RUSSIA TO EXPORT 10 SUKHOI SUPERJET 100S IN 2012

    RIA NOVOSTI
    Bebruary 24, 2012

    Russia will export 10 Sukhoi Superjet 100 airplanes in 2012, United
    Aircraft Corporation CEO Mikhail Pogosyan said on Friday.

    The planes will be delivered to Mexico, Indonesia, and Laos in the
    second half of the year, he added.

    So far, only one plane has been exported and that was to Armenia.

    Another 10 SSJ 100s will be delivered to domestic airlines Aeroflot
    and Armavia.

    The Superjet 100 is a medium-haul passenger aircraft developed by
    Sukhoi in cooperation with U.S. and European aviation corporations,
    including Boeing, Snecma, Thales, Messier Dowty, Liebherr Aerospace
    and Honeywell.

    The aircraft is capable of carrying up to 100 passengers for up to
    4,500 kilometers.

    In early February SSJ 100 received the Type Certificate from the
    European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA).

    Sukhoi has received over 200 firm orders for Superjet 100 airliners
    so far.
