• Messages about the technical malfunctions of the aircraft using Russian airlines have become more frequent after the invasion of Ukraine. Western countries banned the export of goods and technologies used in the aviation and space sectors, as well as insurance and maintenance of goods related to these industries.
• As a result, the problems began to arise both with imported aircraft for which there are no new spare parts, and with domestic, in which foreign technologies and materials are still used.
