Deliveries of Il-114-300 aircraft will begin ramping up in 2028,said Denis Manturov,Russia's First Deputy Prime Minister. He announced this at St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF),presenting aircraft's type certificate at same time.
Manturov remains optimistic about increasing deliveries,but warned of possible one-year shipment dip. This might happen due to disconnect between contracting and certification processes. "But starting in 2029,I hope that from 2028 they will rhythmically increase in volume," he said.
Il-114-300 expected to fill key roles for Ministry of Defense. Manturov emphasized its cargo transport strengths,thanks to wide side door for pallet loading. A boost to operational flexibility.
