Russia begins Tu-214 cockpit redesign for two-person crew

MAI and Tupolev engineers have started developing a two-person crew version of the Tu-214 airliner, a program that will produce cost estimates, schedules, and industry collaboration roadmaps. This marks a shift in Russia's civil aviation strategy to reduce reliance on foreign components and adapt to sanctions. The development is in early stages, with no timeline or production commitments yet.
