Russia advances in certifying the avionics of the MC-21-310 with new tests
The State Research Institute of Aviation Systems of Russia (GosNIIAS) is finalizing details to begin certification testing of the onboard electronic systems of the MC-21-310 in April, moving forward with the replacement of imported components with domestic solutions in Russia's aviation industry.
The State Research Institute of Aviation Systems of Russia (GosNIIAS) is finalizing preparations for the certification testing of the electronic systems of the MC-21-310 aircraft, a variant of the MC-21 equipped with Russian-made Aviadvigatel PD-14 engines.
This effort is part of Russia's import substitution initiative, aimed at reducing reliance on foreign components in its aviation industry.
To carry out these tests, a ground test bench called the "electronic bird" has been developed, which will allow the simulation of thousands of virtual flights. This approach facilitates a comprehensive evaluation of the integration and performance of Russian equipment replacing imported equivalents. The tests are scheduled to begin in April, and the documentation related to the testing methodology is in the final stages of review.
The test bench includes radio-technical simulators to evaluate navigation, landing, and communication systems, a feature that was not present in previous test benches, such as that of the Yakovlev SJ-100. According to GosNIIAS, "testing onboard electronic systems on such benches significantly accelerates the development process, reduces overall costs, and increases the safety of the tests."
