Iran Intends to Build Its Own Aircraft That Can Carry 100 People
Iran may be considering the building of a new 100-seat commercial passenger airliner to address the scarcity of new aircraft.
Highlights
- Because sanctions prevent Iran from properly replacing its aircraft, Iranian airlines often fly older planes like the Airbus A300, Fokker 100s, MD-80s, and other avgeek favourites.
- "In order to be able to utilise the country's current military capabilities for the production of commercial aircraft, we signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Ministry of Defense."
- Iran required approximately 500 aircraft in 2018 to replace its current fleet and expand over the next ten years.
