• The Federal Air Transport Agency approved a Tu-214 modified with domestic-made systems and components.
• The aircraft will be built in Russia with serial production starting in 2026.
• Eight planes will be produced in 2026, followed by 12 in 2027, and 20 per year thereafter.

This development may indicate Russia's efforts to reduce dependence on foreign technology and increase domestic production. The approval of domestic avionics could also enhance the country's civil aviation capabilities and pave the way for future production of other aircraft models. However, it is unclear how this will impact Russia's relations with the international aviation community and the effectiveness of Western sanctions.
