Russia’s Sukhoi Plans to Set up Technical Support Center for its Civilian Jets in Saudi Arabia
Sukhoi Civil Aircraft (SCAC) intends to set up a technical support center for its Super Jet SSJ100 in Saudi Arabia, revealed the company’s president Alexander Rubtsov.
He told Asharq Al-Awsat that the center will provide technical support to potential operators in the region.
He spoke of various cooperation options with Saudi companies, pointing to SCAC’s participation in the Saudi Airshow that recently concluded in Riyadh.
He said that it was a new experience for his firm, adding that it will bolster the aviation and space industry in the Kingdom.
On current and future cooperation with Saudi Arabia, Rubtsov said: “We believe that Saudi Vision 2030 will open new travel horizons in the country onboard short domestic flights.”
“Our short distance SSJ100 could play a role in this option,” he remarked.
Moreover, he said that Sukhoi civilian aircraft can enter the market in the region, which is why the company has approached Saudi partners.
He also predicted that the Saudi Airshow would grow in importance in the coming years to become one of the world’s premier aviation exhibits.
