the Russian aviation industry has been
0:04
diligently engaged in the development
0:06
and implementation of new engines for
0:08
civil aviation in recent years the pd8
0:11
is one of these engines which is a
0:13
potential option for medium Hall
0:15
passenger aircraft the pd8 provides a
0:18
variety of benefits such as environment
0:20
friendliness reliability and high
0:23
efficiency the pd8 engine will be
0:25
installed on a flying test bed which is
0:28
a critical step in the certification
0:30
and testing process this installation
0:32
will enable the engine's performance to
0:34
be verified under actual flight
0:37
conditions this announcement was made
0:39
recently the certification timeline for
0:41
the pd8 engine for the superjet sj100
0:46
and b200 aircraft was postponed from
0:48
December 2023 to the end of 2024 in 2023
0:53
the flight testing of the pd8 Prototype
0:56
which was installed on the IL 76 LL
0:58
aircraft was susp ended Yuri slusar
1:01
General director of United aircraft
1:03
Corporation informed the media that the
1:06
pd8 engine will be tested as part of the
1:08
aircraft in 2024 the flight testing
1:11
program could Encompass more than 200
1:14
flights United engine Corporation
1:17
reported in December 2023 that
1:19
additional work was necessary as a
1:21
result of the identification of issues
1:24
during pd8 testing Dennis manturov the
1:27
Deputy Prime Minister and minister of
1:29
industry and in trade publicly
1:31
acknowledged the significant obstacles
1:33
to the pdh development in late February
1:36
2024 he stated the pd8 engine testing
1:40
issues are perhaps one of the most
1:42
challenging aspects there are numerous
1:44
advantages to installing the pd8 engine
1:47
on an Airborne test bed the engine will
1:49
undergo testing in conditions that are
1:51
as similar to those of real flight AS
1:54
feasible which will assist in the
1:56
identification of potential issues and
2:00
of the requisite modifications the
2:02
engine's certification for use on
2:04
passenger aircraft is contingent upon
2:07
successful testing on the flight test
2:09
bed furthermore the engine's
2:11
dependability and safety for future
2:13
passengers will be guaranteed by
2:15
conducting tests on its functionality in
2:18
actual flight conditions the pd8 engine
2:21
is capable of being installed on a
2:23
variety of medium Hall passenger
2:25
aircraft variants following its
2:27
successful testing and certification
2:29
this would enable Russian Airlines to
2:31
use engines that are manufactured
2:33
domestically thereby fostering the
2:35
growth of the national aviation industry
2:39
and decreasing their Reliance on
2:41
imported components the initial Flight
2:43
of the sj100 Prototype tail number
2:47
951570 which was equipped with pd8
2:49
engines and foreign avionics did not
2:52
occur in late 2023 ground testing is
2:55
presently underway for this aircraft the
2:57
subsequent phase involves the Airborne
2:59
and testing of the sj100 ssj new or
3:02
superjet new prototype since 2018 the
3:06
sj100 has been under development as a
3:09
modification of the superjet which is
3:11
officially known as the rrj 95 new 100
3:15
this version is designed to incorporate
3:17
pd8 engines and the highest possible
3:20
percentage of russian-made components
3:22
parts and systems the new ssj100 version
3:26
included the replacement of 38 systems
3:28
and components in total the aircraft is
3:31
now equipped with domestically produced
3:33
systems for air conditioning braking
3:35
electrical power water supply and refuse
3:38
disposal as well as crew oxygen air
3:41
leakage ice detection air temperature
3:43
sensors landing gear and passenger seats
3:46
nevertheless complete import
3:48
substitution has not been accomplished
3:50
rosc Corporation stated on March 1st
3:53
that the sj100 ssj new will not be
3:56
delivered to Airlines until 2026 led by
3:59
PA UE Saturn the pd8 engine program
4:03
which has a Thrust of approximately 8
4:04
tons at maximal takeoff mode started in
4:07
2019 ueec Saturn's research on the
4:10
Russian French Samm 146 engine has been
4:13
capitalized upon in the development of
4:15
this sophisticated engine the pd8 is
4:18
designed to replicate the Sam 146s
4:20
Dimensions according to minister of
4:22
industry and trade Anton alakin the
4:25
certification of the sj100 equipped with
4:28
domestic p d8 engines is anticipated to
4:32
be finalized by the end of the year with
4:34
deliveries of the engines for testing on
4:36
the sj100 scheduled for early 2025 as
4:40
for the engines we already have the pd14
4:43
certified both separately and for the
4:45
mc21 aircraft itself so the main issue
4:48
with the engine there is fully resolved
4:51
currently some other components are
4:53
being substituted he said the work on
4:55
the superjet is a bit more ambitious
4:58
regarding engine development it began a
5:00
little later however ground tests of the
5:03
pd8 are now underway the engine is ready
5:06
and testing is in progress we expect to
5:08
receive pd8 engines for direct aircraft
5:11
testing early next year these engines
5:13
should be delivered at the beginning of
5:15
the year and by the end of 2025
5:18
certification of the engines as part of
5:21
the aircraft should be completed alov
5:24
had said alakin noted that minor
5:26
schedule shifts are not critical I
5:29
believe aircraft manufacturers have much
5:31
to be proud of we should be thinking
5:33
about exports and the international
5:36
market when entering the export Market
5:38
the aircraft must meet all currently
5:41
stated technical specifications he added
5:44
discussing the prospects for the new
5:46
sj100 we must aim for this because once
5:49
again our domestic Market alone is
5:51
insufficient to support the expertise
5:54
and production volume we plan to
5:56
establish therefore the ministry
5:58
together with UAC and rosc will also
6:01
propose new stages in the comprehensive
6:03
development of civil aviation including
6:06
strategies for capturing a share of the
6:08
international market added alakan of now
6:11
do you think pdh certification will
6:14
indeed happen in 2025 or will it be
6:16
postponed again let us know in the
