There's plenty of interesting stuff there too: https://boosty.to/skyships The history of the PD-8 is a race against time, as designers had to create a new, efficient, and technologically advanced engine in an extremely tight timeframe—the new heart of the new Superjet. In this video, we'll find out if they succeeded and discover what makes the PD-8 one of the most interesting modern Russian engines. The PD-8 (Prospective Engine with 8 tf thrust) is an aircraft jet engine developed by Russia's United Engine Corporation for the SJ-100 (formerly SSJ-100) regional airliner. The project was initiated in 2019 and is being implemented by UEC Saturn. The PD-8 is intended to replace the SaM-146, a joint project between Saturn and Snecma, previously used on the SSJ-100. It shares many features with its predecessor, but unlike it, all components of the PD-8 are manufactured in Russia. Furthermore, the use of the latest technologies and solutions, including those developed during the development of the PD-14 engine from the MS-21 airliner, has resulted in a more efficient and modern design. On March 17, 2025, the PD-8 was used for the first time as the main propulsion system of the SJ-100 airliner during its first joint test flight. Certification of the engine and aircraft, and the start of serial production, are expected soon. Following the implementation of the PD-8-SJ-100 program, other engine modifications may be developed, which could power the Be-200 and Il-112 aircraft, as well as the turboshaft version of the Mi-26 helicopter.
