The sky has always attracted a person as something unknown and attractive, but before the creation of airships, airplanes and helicopters, flying in the clouds for humanity was the ultimate dream. And now it has become commonplace, because every day thousands of planes take to the sky all over the world, which transport both people and goods over great distances. And it takes hours to overcome significant air distances, and not months as it was a century ago.
Yes, indeed, air transport has opened the unexplored boundaries of heavenly space for mankind and significantly increased the standard of living on the entire planet, and this industry has a significant impact on the economy. After all, only a limited number of countries, including Russia, are able to create aircraft. The Russian Federation has a full range of development and assembly of military aviation and civil aviation, which allows the country to compete with the leaders of the world aircraft industry. And practically at any aviation show one cannot do without representatives of Russia, because the exhibitions of aviation technology are not only a show for many spectators, but also a certain market of aviation technology. After all, it is the exhibition plan that provides for the commercial presentation of aircraft, which often finds its consumers from many countries that do not have their own aircraft manufacturing industry.
Especially the competition at air shows takes place in the segment of military aviation, since it is military contracts that most significantly affect the development of the entire military aircraft industry. Moreover, military aviation is represented in the world by a rather small number of manufacturers whose production is focused either on developments in Russia or the Western world. And in terms of price, military aircraft leaves civil aviation far behind.
It should be borne in mind that developments in the military segment of aircraft construction are always subsequently presented in the civil aviation of Russia and other countries of the world. Since it is the military industry that, when creating military aircraft, is able to develop truly advanced aircraft manufacturing technologies, which are subsequently necessarily used in civil aviation transport.
