The State Corporation Rostechnology has
finalised an order for 50 Next-Generation Boeing 737 airplanes. The order includes purchase rights for an additional 35
Next-Generation 737s.
The State Corporation's Supervisory Board
approved the definitive agreement that was signed and announced on
17 September 2010 during the Sochi Investment Forum in Russia. The
order is valued at $3.7 billion at average list prices. Rostechnology's order includes 15 Next-Generation 737-700s, 25
737-800s and 10 737-900ERs.
"The order of
Next-Generation 737s by Rostechnology represents a substantial
investment in our future and will accelerate the significant
progress we are making in improving the global competitiveness and
efficiency of our airline industry," said Roman Pakhomov, chief
executive officer of Aviation Capital Services, aviation leasing
division of Rostechnology. "This agreement continues to build upon
the strategic partnership between Rostechnology and Boeing."
The economic benefits, comfort and operating efficiencies
consistently demonstrated by the Next-Generation 737 directly
support Rostechnology's plan to provide Russian airlines with
efficient and reliable airplanes that will help them profitably
grow domestic and international operations.
Rostechnology 737s will be delivered with the
all-new 737 Boeing Sky Interior.
