Of the 235 Superjet-100s produced, 164 aircraft are actively in use.

It is possible to return aircraft that are idle on the ground to service, but there is little point in doing so.

As Technosphere writes, 235 Superjet-100 aircraft have been produced in Russia over the entire period (not to be confused with the import-substituted SJ-100 – these are just being built) – this includes prototypes. But only 164 of them are used. Why don’t the others take to the air?

Of the 235 Superjet-100s produced, 164 aircraft are actively in use.

Firstly, from this number, we need to delete 22 cars operated in Mexico. Secondly, there would probably be fewer idle planes if there were somewhere to fly because, in addition to Europe, airports in the south of the European part of Russia have been closed for more than a year.

The majority of Superjet-100s are in the fleet of Rossiya Airlines (78 units). Another 19 Superjet-100s are from Red Wings, 18 from Azimut Airlines, and 15 from Yamal.
