  • Deliveries scheduled for 2029–2032 show that Aeroflot’s fleet transition depends on sustained production ramp-up and the resolution of sanctions-related supply constraints.
  • The commitment expands on Aeroflot’s earlier planned MC-21 fleet, making the airline a central launch customer for Russia’s import-substitution strategy.
