Sukhoi Superjet 100-95

The Sukhoi Superjet 100 was Russia's first clean-sheet regional jet developed after the collapse of the Soviet Union, built with substantial Western partners supplying its engines and avionics. Seating around 100 passengers, it was designed to compete with Western regional jets like the Embraer E-Jet family on both cost and comfort. International sanctions following Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine cut off access to its Western-sourced engines and parts, forcing a shift toward an all-Russian-built successor. Most Superjets in service today fly within Russia and a small number of allied or friendly export markets.
