The Irkut MC-21 (formerly known in English as ''MS-21'' (ロシア語:МС‑21 "Магистральный Самолёт 21 века" - "Magistralny Samolyot 21 veka" - "Airliner of the 21st Century")) is a series of three twin-engine short-range and mid-range Russian jet airliners with a capacity of 150-212 passengers being developed and to be produced by Irkut and Yakovlev Design Bureau of the United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) group.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=:: -21 )〕 The design is based on the never-realized, twin-engine Yakovlev Yak-242 as a development of the three-engine Yakovlev Yak-42. According to a recent statement made by Russian deputy premier Dmitry Rogozin, the name of the MC-21 serial production aircraft will again be Yak-242.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 publisher = Russian Aviation, News 24 October 2013 )〕 Due to replace the Tupolev Tu-154 and older Tupolev Tu-204/214 in service,〔(Russia's United Aircraft ) 2009/08/11〕 the MC-21 certification and delivery was initially planned by 2016, but delivery was delayed to 2017.〔(Irkut is developing the MS-21 narrowbody and aiming for first flight in 2014 ) Flightglobal〕 ==Development and design== The initial design is to include composite materials (about 33%), increasing to 40-45% provided a composite wing is added in 2015. In March 2008, a contract was signed which will see Sukhoi Civil Aircraft Company, a subsidiary of Sukhoi Corporation, designing and manufacturing composite wings for the aircraft. Engines supplied for the Russian domestic market will be the Aviadvigatel PD-14.〔(Second borderline is behind )〕 In December 2009, Pratt & Whitney announced that the Irkut Corporation had selected the PW1000G engine to power the MC-21.〔(Pratt & Whitney PW1000G Engine Selected to Power Russia's Irkut MS-21 Aircraft )〕 On August 20, 2009, Hamilton Sundstrand, a subsidiary of United Technologies Corporation, announced they had signed a $2.3 billion deal with Irkut to supply systems for the MC-21.〔(Hamilton Sundstrand Announces $2.3B Deal With Irkut )〕 Irkut also selected Rockwell Collins and its Russian partner Avionika to supply the MC-21's avionics.〔(Western next generation engines power to MS-21 and C919 selection ) at flightglobal.com〕 Goodrich also a subsidiary of United Technologies Corporation, along with Aviapribor, secured the mandate to develop an integrated control system for the MC-21. The Interior will feature furnishings from Zodiac Aerospace, coordinated from C&D Zodiac in Huntington Beach, California. The Water and Waste Systems of the aircraft will incorporate innovations from Zodiac Aerospace in Carson, California. The designer plans that the MC-21 will be 10-15% more efficient than Airbus and Boeing aircraft in the same class and it will have a 15% structural weight efficiency advantage, 20% lower operating costs, and 15% lower fuel consumption than the Airbus A320〔 with an initial target price of $35 million USD.〔() December 12, 2006〕 As of 2009, the MC-21 was in the pre-design phase, with projected completion of the first prototype in 2013, the first flight in 2014 and deliveries commencing in 2016.〔 By June 2011, the pre-design phase of development had been completed, giving way to the working design phase in which models and drawings are constructed, with an estimated completion date of this phase sometime in mid-2012. Delayed delivery was announced by Dmitry Rogozin - vice-premier of Russian Government in charge of defense industry - on February 10, 2012, with first flights planned 2015-2016 and delivery planned in 2017.〔(The first serial MS-21 in 2017 ) Historialotnictwa by Google-Translate〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Irkut MC-21」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
