just on the one. thing on the top of the receipts he writes russia's last condo on the chancellor has exposed again this time in a sexy photo shoot for influence in taksim but the commission is now soon trying to reach a proxy authorship posted on the rise pictures on the web. down the combination on the basis of the coast as a ligament tear but also the country remains that may want to see what the amount of power not displayed this a growing number of couples in the country had facing rejection by bungling communities as they turn back by contradiction. does the headlines not the time for all seizing to the show spotlight so they head of sukhoi aircraft is in the studio to talk with the future of russian aviation.

spotlight on r.t. . and today my guest in the studio. for engineering technologies two thousand permits to said that despite tough competition russian aircraft manufacturing companies are capable of penetrating global markets the size famous russian fighter jets several civil projects that could become a success globally and one hundred media. is one of our guests in the studio today is the first vice president of the united aircraft corporation to talk about the plans and the problems of the russian aircraft industry. have been dominating much of the world skies powerful

comparatively cheap they remain an attractive alternative to more expensive western models. is being tested now and some foreign experts say the team is better than its american rivals. computer and russians are especially proud because the. russian components besides produce a. passenger plane. it's a replacement for planes and foreign brands and so what else is coming from the hangar. maker the c.e.o. . will spill the beans on today's edition of spotlight. thanks for joining us who. first thing the. comes to mind when you talk about. the recent presentation of a fifth generation fighter jet prime minister putin attended for resign

a grown tests done and fly tests have still ahead that does this mean that russia is still a world leader in military aircraft. certainly our positions in a military aircraft manufacturing are a quite strong expose. and to me the ground for twenty five percent of the world's military aircraft exports in terms of its own blood will we manufacture it twelve to fourteen per cent of all military aircraft so there we were you. telling me this is that so you do if there's any country make more across the americans. the united states covers more than fifty percent of the world's military aircraft market so the world's number three producer but the first two places are taken by a wall keyed and boring look at the world which mainly provide aircraft for the u.s. department of defense used. for the counter bombs going to i would get. no waste

a beach in the way it's recently china presented its new fighter jets cold f c one . mistaken it looks very much like our su twenty seven but i think it's also cheaper so two questions here first do you see this as dumping and will russia take any measures to protect its intellectual property which they have to skip but i. more than twenty years ago there were russian federation in the people's republic of china has signed a contract for the licensed production of ass u. twenty seven in china. it was under the contract with russia was to supply ports for certain number of planes but will china wants to manufacture a certain number of fear craft with the. and the deal also included some other provisions about the possibility of more knowledge being the aircraft them developing the use a program further. could make honestly we do have some questions concerning the way

this agreement is being implemented but the russian chinese commission for military technical cooperation is looking into these matters so i will soon work out a mutually acceptable solution as a regards were attempting our intellectual property and developing this project to further only one so you do have questions about this across so it's not clear what it's a violation of and lois said to figure that out but we do have questions and we have to discuss this matter in t.t.l. would open ordinary which is what our agencies and experts on both sides are doing now. which. you've mentioned america being a lotus manufacturer of military aircraft as well should do it but it was primarily because the u.s. department of defense had pentagon is u.s. made a crofter that yes the us market is the largest nor is russia mostly produces for export as i understand it i can say that over the past twenty years the russian

defense ministry of purchased almost no new planes for it but all are achievements in the industry are based on our mass production for export well but now the situation is changing. and it is i was just about to ask where the russian defense ministry and the air force are ready to develop and to become your major customers . you need to be serious i was a. defense minister he isn't just trading has already become one or a major customers in two thousand and eight two thousand and nine but we signed contract to supply more than a hundred and fifty aircraft to the defense ministry a lot of news to one hundred plus of sukhoi and thirty plus me planes all of the who are i believe the defense ministry plan. you continue to mine new aircraft for the air force. planes that were manufactured before and the nine hundred ninety s.

are gradually being commissioned so. most of the points su hoary and produce will go through the defense ministry. of course so this will add to our instability. and help us promote our products on the international market as well. just ten years ago. now it's back with a new generation jet on the world market spotlights you know has more. the pride of russia's aviation industry then you wish to change a ration fighter jet fifty was unveiled to the public at the beginning of the year the jets most outstanding characteristics i meet stealth and its ability to fly at supersonic speeds for the duration of its flight it's set to possess twice the range of its american equivalent and is expected to capture

a large part of the market when it comes into service in three years time into says it wants to buy up to two hundred fifty of these jets and the demand for them is only expected to increase as they're going to be cheaper than those from the u.s. but what's probably more important for russians is that civil aviation is also showing signs of preval after almost twenty years of decline the first post soviet besting to plane this is the jet one hundred was presented to the international public at last year's paris show how about the super jets main task is not so much to impress potential for in customers but to replace the outdated planes currently used by russian. the driving force behind the regeneration of the russian their vacation is growing corporation with bars. what started as just supply oprah materials is great really turned into joint research and it can only to projects in the past five years where she has increased state funding of the industry like

twenty times but it's still mighty keys if not dedicate the civil segment to russian aviation to keep up with its western counterparts like boeing their boss. but what in the at that now after watching this video i have a question let's compare planes and cause the fiesta my formula one race cars or will i basically policy models to try out new technology that will later be implemented in mass produced because you don't have to me so is there a similar situation in your industry that once you develop a new technology for combat aircraft do you then apply it in civil aviation and that's that after this there is a six month. well she's toric only military aviation has always been the driving force behind the aircraft manufacturing industry where many new materials

like thirteen email oist which are widely used in civil aviation to date were initially developed for military purposes and the same goes for every awnings. the military industry was leading the way and then it's to acknowledge those who were integrated into civil aviation but now the situation has changed to do that's a two way street on the one hand you have military technologies developed for military programs she implemented in civil aviation but on the other hand many things in that had for civil aviation. for military planes for example the boeing seven hundred eighty seven but its use of composing materials so it's a whole new level of aircraft design. so if we want to be a world leader in an aircraft manner. factory we should develop both the military and civil sector. i know that your company plans to increase the share of civil

aircraft but because so far you make money mostly by making military across there and what do you plan to increase the share of civil aircraft by means of the russian market are you planning to promote your products more aggressively worldwide. there is no russian market in the aircraft industry there is the world market if we want to succeed and this applies to both military and civil programs and we have to consider the world aircraft market in the reason we have been successful with our military aircraft just because we considered the situation on the world market and we made them competitive over the same goes for civil aviation but you when you said something strange just now what do you mean there is no domestic market to be able to air traffic inside russia is so low that you can't rely on it to produce an airplane that would be able to compete against western aircraft to if we consider only the russian market with our planes whom stand

competition although i do consider that's why we have to go by world standards will actually in our airlines who want the same flaw doesn't want to buy russian planes often theory or quality used it once aircraft was superior to those used by its rivals you. except through it by the way an aeroflot offended to a company just the other day they appealed to the russian leadership saying they wanted to become a monopolist you had to and they said that health of the planes they buy would be right and the other half knowing about does this mean that they're not going to buy your plane said old. sirius no we have a contract with air flight for thirty planes with an option for them to buy more later one of three of those are regional class planes three of them useless for short medium and long range airliners at this point in the united aircraft corporation cannot alone for air flow planes that would be able to compete against boeing or airbus should this be so in the future we would like to show more civil

points to offer but to date your flooding is our strategic partner for regional class planes. this should choose what's made this medium range sukhoi superjet project north successful vendor. tuple if t u three thirty four if i got its name right there well one particular well that's because we design our plane for the future is not for today and another thing when you launch a new project if you have to keep it short well you can take ten years to design a new plane or they'll have to keep it short leash there should be some sleighs because tupolev did everything on its own while saeco used for into college and. from the very outset and so we decided that we wanted our products to have international certificates we wanted to have an airplane that we would be able to offer to both domestic and foreign customers to put consequently we had to impose

stricter requirements on our contractors so when they had to provide international certificates what it wants they provided was comparable and we had a cost limitations because we have to compete against western mass produced aircraft and in terms of both plants and floetry alone someone believes we came up with a better new year with one hundred passenger aircraft for the regional market was a little if we used a number of new technological solutions that made it competitive from school for example it's a control system to use the safest in its class so if it meets the highest international standards and it's more comfortable compared to other regional planes then there is a number of other technological solutions as crucially says. general director of the whole light company spotlight will be back shortly one after the break so stay with us and. that.

question was that so much about the taxpayers' money materialization make it a lot of people at area reality t.v. want to be popular and commercially lucrative but just how realistic are these programs are they the ultimate. hungry for the full story we've got it first the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers on. wealthy british style. markets find scandal find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to cause a report on our t.v. .

welcome back to spotlight time out you know and just to remind you that my guest in the studio today is me how you guys sound the first vice president of the united aircraft corporation he's also the head of the soho aircraft camp and make after that and they so that the man who who makes all the jet planes in this country nearly all of them. started specials i what if you're coming back to your favorite brainchild of the super. tanker is sad they would hit the market in the summer of two thousand and ten which means pretty soon. at the very keeping up with the timetable that they see what's going to do we have twelve planes being assembled there to come some malls going to we're all the different stages i said hell many do you need to hit the market to come to the market it's enough to supply the first lames your customer going to our planes we're to supply the first three planes to your foot in our mob you're our first customers how many have you sold today to

just today our stock of orders is in there in a hundred and twenty points there's already sold yes in a move received advance payments from our customers so it's a slope of how much is the advance payment in relation to the full price also the percentage varies could live with us. but how much do you like to get. personally i don't have any particular. payment. to the companies. there are various modifications so that catalog varies between twenty five and twenty eight million dollars. we offer discounts and the market price is subject. to company and its customers sport let's. try to find out if people here in russia trust russian

aircraft here's what she came up with hi there well some say that it is safer to travel by plane. however it seems that you have more control when you are the one. with little christmas flights miniscule ready to get a word interest. let's see if. those bullets if they. yes i did i think. it is new. technique. because i. don't really trust. no i don't well it actually.

gets. to be honest with you. your graph on the on the buyout occurred. i know that for. a lot of other. that he did he has got a question guest. that's going to get us to competitive or the russian aircraft. so my next question is competitive all the russian approach considering the fact that as you've just seen many people tend to distrust russian aircraft or even tourist companies as they run their advertising campaigns promise you'll be flying a boeing. we're talking about civil points right. well over the past twenty years

we have developed a very few new plane models and as a result certain amount of trust has built up because a russian made plane city or the companies used to do mostly old ones. because you know even if we take those critical things that we've just mentioned the picture that emerges is an accurate one on the one hand they point to high level of technology and a high level of reliability but breakdowns are rather frequent because of the like of servicing exploits you know it at that it depends on the company that operates then right this is also true someone often russian made planes are inferior to their foreign made counterparts that they enjoy less maintenance. we're putting most serious sampras's on organizing a worldwide after sales service system that can meet modern standards considering that as a no less important than developing an aircraft complex within the framework officer

project one hundred project. most attention to infrastructure and servicing all over the world would you not responsible to passengers it's a separate issue which we weren't before the responsibility was with companies currently both in military and similar craft it's the manufacturer in that you. responsibility for after sales service and we are organizing a special structure that will keep aircraft in terms throughout their service life with the ship what all the legal aspect to say you'll move through aircraft from flights that has to be for maintenance we must assure such are a liability that airlines would be able to operate the plane between scheduled maintenance periods for the maintenance schedule will be part of the contract. wish there was a future if so you can ban and i craft from being upgraded if it fails to get maintenance that's not our goal or goal is to work together with the airlines and provide everything necessary for a successful operation off aircraft what is this something you just plan today it's

something we're already doing the way we want and we have been doing you see when before we supplied our first aircraft to customers. we've begun talking about sukkot is cooperation with foreign companies. do you plan to expand this cup or ration would have been the reason to bring the entire production chain back to russia like it was in the soviet times. or so we should increase russia's share in the production of equipment but since we consider the world market we should coppery it with the world's leading components like manufacturers and i see it is our strategy vector to my mind or russia possesses a lot of skills like you'll software development the high intellectual resource of the engineer personnel the manse russian industry and so forth with these could be modern industries are emerging as well and all of that makes it possible to increase the sheriff russian made in future planes a little. bit the does this international cooperation have

a matthew elements to it let me explain what i mean will come with mystify manco the make of the new russian super com rusia once came to the studio and was sitting where you're sitting right now he said he had been told things told breaks made by bosch and other foreign made components in which case had been. that would be no problem certificate why is it he said he wanted to use only russian parts no one would signify if they told him is there anything like that innovation. yes. or no i don't see anything like that all you need is a sufficient amount of skills and experience because you can certified almost anything but will if you certify something that was never certified before they have to realize that their certification cycle will take a lot of time we must make products that will come to the market within rather a brief time frame to do so there is no question of protectionism no there is no

direct protectionism they will write another question it's more of a political nature but you are the right person to ask about it said the bulk of the soviet military transport aircraft industry was left in the crane as i understand well was the main manufacturer in this class also what's your plan will you try to make something new on the road so i know you have a plant income is going to more or are you working with the ukrainians or russia today has some experience in making military transport planes for example i also made a six who was one of the main planes used by the defense ministry for transportation as well today the aleutian company has a number of branches but of course we are actively discussing the possibility of integrating russian aircraft industry the anton of company in some other plants in ukraine i see some promise and you know i think that we should cool our resources and efforts to my mind this may be a very effective with the expertise or that russia and ukraine have any area of

military transport aircraft and i think we can be very successful because oh right we've discussed cooperation with china we said there are a few problems but you've promised that they will be results that we've also talked about cut the ration with the training now at. it's india if they want to weigh in they both from the fact that we sell many military planes to india there is also a russian intent project to develop a multiple transport plane yes how is the project going and when will we have the first results of. partners in aircraft manufacturing and this goes beyond military planes like you just said this includes transport planes as well as the russian engine program of building the su thirty m. . very successful. india produces this aircraft under license with the multipurpose transport plane program we progressed from regular solar by

relationship with food. shipping producing more than aircraft. we're also considering a similar partnership for the fifth generation project which we also mentioned today by the way with so i think we'll have some results in the next few years and this year i expect that we'll sign action plans for both programs. multi-purpose transport plane and that of the fifth generation and the last question could you reveal a secret and tell us whether russia is going to build its own drones or continue to buy them from israel it's designing on managerial planes is one of the priorities for you definitely get the full so you all waiting on it. soon as the defense minister gives us a definite list stuff required characteristics for this plane we'll be able to start working on this project directly in situations where a small number of drones are necessary i think they can be purchased from israel.

thank you very much for being with us and just a reminder that my guest in the studio today was. general director. and make companies the head of the first wife. residence of the russian state's aviation building corporation and that's it for now from all of us have pulled back with more first and comments on it was going on in and outside russia until then stay on r.t. and take care.
