in Kamal score a prototype of the
0:29
superjet aircraft has successfully
0:31
completed its inaugural flight with
0:33
domestically produced pd8 engines this
0:36
event signifies the start of flight
0:38
tests for the pd8 as part of the
0:40
superjet program test pilots Dimitri
0:43
demenev and eigor grov as well as flight
0:46
operator Maxim gurianov operated as the
0:49
crew responsible for the flight the
0:51
aircraft attained an altitude of 3,000
0:54
MERS and a speed of 500 kilm per hour
0:57
during its approximately 40-minute
0:59
flight the crew Commander reported that
1:01
the flight mission was finished in its
1:03
entirety after landing the stable
1:06
operation of the pd8 engine power unit
1:09
was evaluated during the flight which
1:11
involved an evaluation of the engine's
1:13
gas Dynamic stability in both constant
1:16
and variable operating modes Dennis
1:18
manov first Deputy Prime Minister of the
1:21
Russian Federation and chairman of the
1:23
supervisory Board of rosc State
1:25
Corporation said the aircraft with the
1:28
pd8 power unit has joined flight tests
1:31
this is an important and long-awaited
1:33
step towards certifying a
1:35
technologically independent version of
1:37
the superjet the full dedication and
1:39
perseverance of the engine manufacturers
1:42
have enabled the aircraft to
1:44
successfully complete its first flight
1:46
with Russian engines to accelerate
1:49
certification tests the manufacturer
1:51
plans to introduce a third fully Russian
1:53
superjet into the program we expect this
1:57
work to proceed on schedule and the
1:59
government is providing full financial
2:01
and resource support to aircraft
2:03
manufacturers the yakovlev company of
2:05
the United aircraft Corporation is
2:07
leading a vast network of Enterprises
2:10
within rosc that are engaged in the
2:12
superjet import substitution program
2:15
experts from the United engine
2:17
Corporation ueec have devised the new
2:19
Russian power units the aircraft with
2:24
9557 which was manufactured in 2018 was
2:28
the Prototype superjet that was used for
2:30
the first flight with domestic engines
2:33
it is important to note that the suco
2:35
superjet 100 ssj100 aircraft which has
2:39
Western components has been equipped
2:40
with the pd8 engine according to recent
2:44
updates the pd8 engine was effectively
2:46
integrated and the ssj100 was turned on
2:49
for the first time in October
2:52
2024 the Franco Russian Sam 146 engines
2:56
are being replaced by this engine as
2:58
part of Russia's initiative to develop
3:00
an import substituted version of the
3:03
ssj100 in response to International
3:06
sanctions as per the Russian officials
3:09
integrating the pd8 into existing
3:11
aircraft would be very costly this
3:13
engine will be integrated with the fully
3:17
future the superjet is undergoing the
3:20
replacement of approximately 40 imported
3:22
systems and components as part of the
3:24
import substitution project these
3:27
systems and components include the
3:28
engine avionic landing gear auxiliary
3:31
power unit integrated control system
3:34
electrical power supply air conditioning
3:36
fire protection systems and more
3:39
furthermore the aircraft has been
3:41
equipped with a domestic fuselage that
3:44
has been redesigned to facilitate
3:46
production and maintenance UAC CEO Vadim
3:49
BHA said the First Flight of the
3:51
superjet with the pd8 engine is on one
3:54
hand the culmination of extensive and
3:56
complex work carried out in
3:58
collaboration with our colleagues at
4:00
ueec on the other hand it marks the
4:03
beginning of a crucial new phase testing
4:06
the engine as part of the aircraft the
4:08
flight tests of the pd8 engines on the
4:11
superjet are starting with an aircraft
4:13
in its serial configuration but still
4:15
equipped with imported systems this is
4:17
because the level of novelty in testing
4:20
such critical components like the engine
4:22
must be increased gradually this
4:25
approach will allow us to maintain the
4:27
necessary certification Pace while while
4:29
refining Technical Solutions to enable
4:32
the future re-engining of the existing
4:34
superjet Fleet he further noted that the
4:37
introduction of a completely Russian
4:38
configured aircraft into flight tests
4:42
would facilitate the testing of the
4:44
interaction between the pd8 power unit
4:46
and domestic systems during the
4:49
certification process Alexander grev CEO
4:52
of ueec said the Flight of the aircraft
4:55
with new domestic pd8 engines has been
4:57
one of the most anticipated events of
4:59
the year the engine demonstrated
5:01
excellent performance and fully
5:03
confirmed all its technical
5:05
characteristics I am grateful to the
5:07
entire large team of ueec and UAC as
5:11
well as the leadership of the ministry
5:12
of industry and trade Rosa vatsia rosc
5:15
and the ne zukovsky Institute for this
5:18
Collective achievement by the end of
5:20
March we plan to deliver two more
5:22
prototype pd8 engines for further flight
5:25
tests the type certificate for the pd8
5:28
engine is expected to be obtained in the
5:30
fall of this year rosc CEO Sergey chov
5:34
said today's flight confirms the
5:36
accuracy of our engineering calculations
5:38
and the high Readiness of the aircraft
5:41
the project is being implemented in
5:42
extremely tight time frames by global
5:45
aviation industry standards since 2022
5:49
the superjet has essentially had to be
5:51
rebuilt from scratch at the same time
5:54
the engine is one of the key elements of
5:56
the import substitution program it is
5:58
the heart of the aircraft
6:00
there is still a lot of work and many
6:01
flights ahead in April another fully
6:05
Russian aircraft with pd8 engines will
6:07
join the certification flight tests
6:09
developed for the superjet passenger
6:11
aircraft and the be2 200 amphibious
6:14
aircraft the pd8 is a dual circuit turbo
6:17
fan engine that generates an 8ton
6:20
thrust it has been created through the
6:22
collaboration of ueec companies and the
6:25
application of Advanced Technologies and
6:27
novel Russian materials as well as the
6:29
knowledge acquired from the development
6:31
of the pd14 engine now do you think
6:35
Western manufacturers have lost the
6:37
market of 8ton engines in Russia and
6:39
some other parts of the world please
