"We have to support the production of unprofitable aircraft"

President of the KLA on the financial problems and new orders corporations


  In mid-August, held in Zhukovsky on the eve of MAKS-2009 Meeting on the development of domestic aircraft industry, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin criticized the activities of OAO United Aircraft Corporation (UAC), reproach her losses in most contracts for the supply of aircraft. This criticism was perceived in the industry as the government's refusal to accept the application aircraft manufacturers for additional public funding for the KLA in the amount of about 122 billion rubles. How much the corporation of unprofitable contracts, and how it is going to solve their financial problems, "Kommersant said UAC president Alexey Fyodorov.

- Immediately after the meeting there were rumors that you can retire. Not offered to write a statement?

- Me, these rumors are absolutely not worried, because I believe that my colleagues and I professionally do their job. If the state as the principal shareholder of UAC decides to change management, the decision will be enforced regardless of my wishes. The criticism that was voiced to us, largely true. Especially reproaches losses of some of our projects. But we have to support the production of unprofitable aircraft - notably the IL-96 and Tu-204 - and go at it consciously. Running in a series of new types of time-consuming, and production can not be sealed for a year or two, and then open again. Already this year to ship the new AN-148, forthcoming SSJ-100, a modernized Tu-204SM.

- The Corporation is generally lucrative contracts?

- Of course there is. In particular, the majority of export contracts to supply military aircraft. But here, too, not all simple. Part of profitable contracts were classified as unprofitable because of the situation on financial markets. In the middle of last year, the dollar was worth 24 rubles., Then the rate jumped to 33 rubles. And we have contracts for which the proceeds we receive, including in rubles.

- At a meeting in Zhukovsky KLA, assess their needs for additional funding of 122 billion rubles., Was promised only 18.2 billion rubles. on dokapitalizatsiyu subsidiaries. Aircraft builders will have to temper their appetites?

- Minutes of the meeting, I have not seen it, but I hope it will record that the amount of state support will not be affected, including by funding directly from the budget and through federal programs. We now also carry the launch of ten projects - an unprecedented event for our aviation industry. Even in times, in parallel, so many new aircraft from starting. No such practices and have the world's leading aircraft building concerns. At the earmarking of projects of transport aircraft is expected allocation for 2009-2011, about 10 billion rubles. Even the order of 25 billion rubles. in 2009-2010, the KLA is required to increase the authorized capital of which is spent primarily at the launch of new civilian products and retooling of enterprises. Of these, 13.4 billion rubles. we asked for extra. Separate conversation relate to unsecured loans. Over the years, the company KLA, as well as RSK MiG and the CAPO (Kazan Aviation Production Association. - "Y") took up the loan portfolio, which now total approximately 150 billion rubles., Of which 64.4 billion - the so-called bad debts.

- When the KLA managed to accumulate so much debt?

- Much of the money we are attracted to buy shares of the corporation Irkut by private shareholders. After the KLA has acquired a controlling stake in Irkut, by law we had to put an offer minority shareholders. Under the implementation of this offer KLA took a loan in the Savings Bank in the amount of about 9 billion rubles. (now a little more than the amount due to maintenance). We assumed that we can return the money through an IPO and the sale of free production sites. Unfortunately, the financial crisis has pushed those plans. While we anticipate that we can come up with shares on the free market only in late 2012, if by that time the market situation improves. Same thing with the land: now they can be realized only with a very large discount. One of the sources of debt has become unprofitable execution of contracts. In addition, a number of enterprises directly took, I would say, unsecured loans from banks, and these loans also put pressure on us. And, finally, in recent years has sharply increased the cost of attracting credit resources, which also exacerbates the situation.

- UAC asks the state to cover the fiscal deficit 64.4 billion rubles. It is in view of debt, MiG?

- Along with a jiffy. No MiG this amount in nearly two times less. But we believe that IAR his business and, therefore, bear full responsibility for his financial situation. We have proposed to the government of Russia to restructure the debt. In this scheme involved VEB, Sberbank and VTB, for which these loans and are "toxic". They are interested in the slack, such as OFZ or some other gosobyazatelstvami. We were instructed by September 1 to develop proposals to bring them to the government and line agencies. This is a very complex issue that we discussed at the meeting in Zhukovsky.

- Can publish options discussed?

- We propose a scheme that looks as follows. KLA is committed on all unsecured loan companies. Then, together with the VEB, which becomes a bank operator, to restructure these debts. The scheme has not been fully worked out with key ministries, so I would not want to disclose its details. During September, we will complete negotiations and present the scheme for approval to the government.

- RAC MiG has been promised 15 billion rubles. of dokapitalizatsiyu, but in the beginning of the year in financing needs of corporations was estimated at 85 billion rubles. a debt of 55 billion rubles. For long enough available resources?

- The situation on the RSK MiG has improved somewhat after the first half of this year in the charter capital of the corporation were transferred to 15 billion rubles. Now the total needs of RCC is approximately 30 billion rubles. Of these, 15 billion rubles. we ask to make the charter capital, and the remaining amount is taken into account in the overall package needs the KLA. MiG has a very large portfolio, one of the largest in the KLA, and he needs to restore financial solvency in order to implement these contracts.

- About what exactly the contracts in question?

- About two Indian - for the supply ship for the aircraft carrier Admiral Gorshkov and the modernization of MiG-29. RSK MiG is not enough "oborotki" to complete the manufacture and testing of these machines. In any case, we are planning this year to begin shipping ship aircraft to India. The same situation is to upgrade the MiG-29. Плюс РСК МиГ занимается модернизацией и поставкой самолетов бывшего алжирского контракта для Минобороны России: часть самолетов уже поставлена, а оставшаяся большая часть должна быть поставлена до конца этого года. Several machines we put in early next year. In addition, the MiG has signed a number of smaller contracts with Croatia, Syria and other countries.

- Do you mean the contract to supply to Syria MiG-31, whose existence RSK MiG and Rosoboronexport stubbornly deny?

- A couple of years ago, was signed at the same time two contracts - one for the MiG-29M, and the second - on the MiG-31. The first is being implemented, and the contract for the MiG-31 never entered into force. Now under this contract, consultations are continuing, so that his destiny for us is not very clear.

- Judging by the reaction of the Syrian side to the publication of "Y" on the possible refusal of Russia from the implementation of this contract, it has serious intentions ...

- Negotiations are under way, I hope that the contract will still be realized. He and I have high hopes for stabilizing the situation in Nizhny Novgorod Sokol.

- Rostekhnologii announced a tender for delivery in 2011-2017 years 65 single-aisle aircraft for "Rosava" silent about the regional aircraft, although the agreement signed in the spring with the KLA, it was about 49 regional machines. What are the prospects of delivery Rosava, regional aircraft?

- At the regional aircraft tender yet never was. But we have already begun to implement our agreements with Rosava: signed a contract for the supply of AN-148 with STC "Russia", and at MAKS - contract with Atlant-Soyuz for the supply of 30 aircraft AN-148. Plus, we continue to negotiate with Rosava, and for the supply of SSJ-100.

- When the SSJ-100 will complete a domestic and foreign certification?

- We are highly dependent on suppliers - primarily from dvigatelistov. Similarly, to calculate the end date of certification and, consequently, the beginning of deliveries of planes, we can only after dvigatelisty finish their certification process. It must first be certified by the engine, and then the plane itself must confirm their characteristics, making a certain number of flights with engines "model" design. We have had this year, virtually excluded from the fourth test aircraft, which was painted under the flight program. Can compensate for the missing three planes of the number of flights, I can not say. But even if dvigatelisty pluck a little bit in the fulfillment of their obligations, then in 2010 we will be able to deliver SSJ-100.

- And in the tender Rosava, for the supply of medium-range aircraft you still involved?

- Yes, we received a request for 50 aircraft with an option for 15 more. We are studying what products we can provide.

- Is there any options other than the Tu-204?

- Basically, of course, the Tu-204SM. It may be two options - either Tu-204SM-100 for up to 210 passengers, or Tu-204SM-300 - to 160 passengers. But as far as I know, the application range starts with 120 seats. We, unfortunately, until such aircraft in the line there. Therefore, we can accept the application only partially. There are dates on which we must submit our proposals - until mid-October. We believe that we have certain advantages: our airplanes in Russia mainly equipment, much of which is produced at the enterprises Rostekhnologii.

- What are large orders for the Tu-204 may be signed in the near future?

- We have already signed a contract for five Tu-204SM with an option for 30 from the Iranian IranAirTour and started its implementation. The next customer - "Atlant-Soyuz, which signed a contract for 15 aircraft. Negotiations we are almost all Russia's airlines and many foreign. We expect that the overall portfolio on the Tu-204SM in the order of 100-120 aircraft. This is the number of economically justify the launch of this project and will allow us to hold for this segment of the market before the release of MS-21-400 to 210 passengers, which will appear by 2020 and will replace the Tu-204. One of the conditions of the project Tu-204 - ensuring its break-even or at least a minimum return. We therefore seriously reducing costs - and our own, and suppliers. To ensure that project done at least minimally profitable, you need to reduce costs by 15-18%.

- And if the project still remains unprofitable?

- If you do not achieve break-even, it is not going to develop it.

- Production of IL-96 is profitable or unprofitable?

- We have suspended production unprofitable versions, passenger IL-96-300, but retains transport - IL-96-400T. We reserve the production of IL-96 for special orders - in the near future to sign a contract with the manager of the president on two aircraft. Possible orders from foreign customers.

- Are there any future for regional aircraft Tu-334?

- In the niche regional machinery we have already launched two projects - the AN-148 and the SSJ-100. Run the third project in the competition the first two would be at least unwise. Before the crisis, we thought that the Tu-334 could find their place in the business jet - large diameter fuselage to create a very comfortable environment for the VIP-cabin. Before the crisis, this market segment has developed rapidly, but now stood. We do not reject completely the idea to produce Tu-334, but while his fate is suspended: running in production will require about 8 billion rubles., And these we have no money.

- If you go back to MS-21, determined whether there is any options for the supply of engines?

- We received two, in our opinion, very attractive offer from Pratt & Whitney and Rolls-Royce and decided not to close the tender, and continue it, but with a short list. Specific parameters of the proposals I can not call. One of the important conditions for foreign participants - part of our dvigatelestroiteley. At Pratt & Whitney - a joint engine-Corporation, Rolls-Royce is also a partner with Russia. Make a decision, we plan before the end of the year. The same situation and avionics, here in the tender were Rockwell Collins and Concern "Avionics". For most of the other major systems of the winners determined, the procedure is started by selecting the suppliers of second level. According to the schedule of the choice of all suppliers should have finished before the end of the year. Once the preliminary design will be protected from the beginning of 2010 we will have a working design.

- And how the project is progressing India-Russia MTA?

- This year alone actually start this project. The Indian government has confirmed the investment on their part. Russia's also affirmed, but you need to formalize these decisions interstate and internal documents.

- In September, for consideration by the Board of Directors of the KLA should be made the new structure of the corporation. It has already finalized?
