Manufacturer catalog

United Aircraft Corporation

United Aircraft Corporation is a Russian state-owned aerospace holding that consolidates major design and production organizations behind Sukhoi, MiG, Ilyushin, Tupolev, Yakovlev, and Beriev aircraft, including fighter and attack-aircraft families represented in this catalog.

4 weapons

UAC was established in 2006 by Russian presidential decree to concentrate Russia's aircraft design, production, testing, support, repair, modernization, and disposal capacity under one corporate structure. Its official materials describe member companies holding the Sukhoi, MiG, Il, Tu, Yak, and Beriev brands, with military products forming a large share of the production structure.

For this catalog, UAC is most relevant as the umbrella manufacturer attached to Russian and Soviet-legacy combat aircraft records. The connected catalog entries include Sukhoi and Mikoyan families where the original design bureaus predate UAC, but current manufacturing, support, or corporate attribution is grouped under the UAC holding.
