Kharkiv Aviation Plant soon to be tightly integrated into Antonov's production cycle

"We could say that this will be specialized enterprise which will be soon tightly integrated in the production and technical cycle of Antonov State Enterprise. It would not be its workshop or a part of it. I mean cooperation," Paschenko told reporters in Kharkiv on Thursday. He said that the plant will be involved in production of composite knots. The plant also should finish and implement the An-140 and An-74 projects, which are in the different stages of readiness. As reported, on June 16, 2015, the Ukrainian government transferred KSAMC and 410 Civil Aviation Plant (Kyiv) to the management of Ukroboronprom from Antonov. Kharkiv State Aircraft Manufacturing Company is one of the leading enterprises in Ukraine's aviation industry, and is the manufacturer of the multipurpose An-74 and short-haul An-140 aircraft.
