Por ejemplo el Il96 es un buen "parato",mejor aún cuando le pusieron motores RR y Rockwell le metió mano en la avionica,pero a alguien con la oficina en Chicago y fábricas en Seattle,Sta Monica,Misouri y Texas no le molaba tanto y la FAA no lo certifico.
pero no me parece que se estén formando tantos pilotos en Rusia como para requerir ese numero de entrenadores, mucho mas en una era en la que cada vez se destinan mas horas de simulador y menos de vuelo real para la formación de pilotos.
Con el Irkut MC-21 la cosas cambian y esta previsto que obtenga todas las certificaciones como máximo en el 2020. Los rusos han conseguido mas de 4.7 mil millones de dolares para el proyecto, y han incluido en su desarrollo a grandes empresas de la industria, como Pratt & Whitney, Hamilton Sundstrand, Rockwell Collins, Honeywell, Thales, Elbit Systems, Orbit Technologies, y otros proveedores de los típicos que equipan a los proyectos occidentales.
El MS-21 ya tiene 175 pedidos en firme. Para comparar, entre 1988 y 2016 se produjeron 82 Tu-204, y 29 Il-96.
Fíjate qué diferencia.
Eso sí, casi el 90% son pedidos de empresas rusas. Con el SSJ hay algo más de internacionalidad, pero poca también.
"This year’s aircraft [Su-35E] will be upgraded based on all the drawbacks and the Syrian experience," Russian deputy defense minister Yuri Borisov told the TASS News agency on June 5... It’s not surprising that the Russian Air Force discovered minor issues with the Su-35 and the other aircraft that it deployed to Syria. Indeed, such discoveries are typical for all aircraft types in every air force. “There is no better stress test for a new aircraft than sustained flight operations,”
...
“Since the aircraft was employed for ground strike missions—more with smart weapons and dumb bombs—there can be some modifications for software and systems responsible for ground attack.”
...
there are no immediate plans to upgrade the aircraft with major new systems like an active electronically scanned array (AESA) radar.
“There will be no AESA,” Kashin said. [Vasily Kashin, a senior fellow at the Center for Comprehensive European and International Studies at Moscow’s Higher School of Economics told The National Interest.] “They have a very powerful PESA radar and it is considered to be the strong point.”
...
What the Russian Air Force does need, however, are targeting pods similar to the Sniper or LITENING pods. Right now, only the Sukhoi Su-34 Fullback bomber has a decent air-to-ground electro-optical/infra-red targeting capability with a built-in system called Platan. The Su-30SM and the Su-35 have to rely on their radars for targeting air-to-surface targets because of the lack of suitable targeting pods. “The lack of pods is considered to be a major weakness of the Russian Air Force,” Kashin said.
The Russians are developing indigenous pods after plans for co-development with France fell through. Indeed, for a time, the Russians had intended to license produce the Thales Damocles pod. “There is a targeting pod development program which started even before Syria, but no results yet,” Kashin said. “As I understand, before the sanctions there were plans for cooperation with France. So later the plans changed, not the Russian pods are still being tested.” It’s not clear when Russia’s indigenous targeting pods might be fielded. “Could be soon, could be another endless saga,” Kashin said.

Sobre el estreno del Su-35 en Siria: tras la experiencia le harán mejoras como es natural, especialmente en el campo AS. Dicen que de momento no hay plan para AESA, que su PESA ya es bien potente y destacan un punto que llevo diciendo tiempo: dado que están usando sus cazas polivalentes -Su-30SM y Su-35E- como tales, es decir también como bombarderos, están viendo una carencia importante en no tener pods FLIR/LD, y de momento ni se sabe cuando la solventarán:
