History

Initially, the aircraft was developed jointly by the companies of the Aviation Complex named after S. V. Ilyushin , NPK Irkut and the Indian company Hindustan Aeronautics (HAL) [6] [7] . The protocol on the start of joint development was signed on June 6, 2001 [8] .

The intergovernmental agreement on the joint development and construction of the aircraft, which received the designation MTA (Medium Transport Aircraft), was signed by the governments of Russia and India in 2007. In subsequent years, future partners agreed that the Russian and Indian parties will each own 50% of the company’s shares, the headquarters will be opened in New Delhi . It was planned that the production of the aircraft will be located both in Russia and in India.
