Avia Consortium and Exolus Group co-operation on Frigate Ecojet

Russian Avia Consortium and the Exolus Group will expand their 2011 ‘Strategic Cooperation’ in development of optimal global operating platforms for the Frigate Ecojet programme, which involves the development of a new wide-body short/medium haul civil aircraft using a brand new aerodynamic and design configuration in accordance with the requirements made for the next generation wide-body short/medium haul aircraft Frigate Ecojet based on a fundamentally new, innovative aerodynamic and structural design.

The Exolus Group has supported RAC in defining the evolution and transformation in the range of the world’s major system integrators’ global operating platforms, focusing on production logistics, airframe production, and vendor selection, while assessing the underpinning risk sharing partnerships, industrial offset agreements, subsidies, and others. RAC and Exolus will move forward with a sequencing of the implementation in the development of “a truly unique and best-in-class global operating platform tailored to a new generation of aircraft”.
