Greed, sabotage and sabotage. How scammers ruined Russian aviation
The arrested director of the Center for Design Technologies of the Moscow Aviation Institute, Vyacheslav Khvan, and the ex-deputy general director of PJSC Il, Andrei Novozhilov, stole millions and buried ideas.
The WarGonzo project reported that it was Novozhilov who failed the IL-114 project, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Andrey Novozhilov
The Presnensky Court of Moscow arrested Khvan and Novozhilov for a term until October 11, both are accused of fraud on an especially large scale. Also involved in the case is Igor Titov, an employee of the MAI financial service, who was left under house arrest.
According to a TASS source, Khvan, Novozhilov and Titov are accused of fraud in the development of the Il-76MD-90A, for the development of which 9 billion rubles were allocated.
To develop the aircraft, the United Aircraft Corporation attracted Il, which in turn attracted the Moscow Aviation Institute (MAI). At the same time, in fact, all the work was done by Il employees, and about 18 million rubles allegedly went to MAI employees, who, in fact, were “dead souls.” Subsequently, this money, according to investigators, was cashed and stolen.
“As it became known from sources in the company, the former director of IL, Andrei Novozhilov, who was detained for corruption, openly bluffed at government meetings, explaining the failure of the project of the new IL-114 transport aircraft,” wrote the WarGonzo TG channel. – A source close to the leadership of the UAC reported the following about Novozhilov: “He lied brilliantly at meetings. At one time, he sent the MIGs, reporting to the top that all the CDs on the IL-114 were transferred to them electronically. Like, look for yourself. In the end, it turned out that these were scans of hard-to-read drawings on a flash drive, but at the meeting everyone swallowed the duck.
WarGonzo also notes that it was UAC Vice President Alexei Rogozin, the son of Dmitry Rogozin, who achieved the dismissal of Novozhilov after he realized what was going on in the company.
“It was thanks to Alexey Rogozin that the project of the IL-112 aircraft was realized, which took off as if against all odds. What Novozhilov’s team “prepared” for release for 10 years, Rogozin’s team had to do from scratch (!) in a year, since the aircraft was designed and assembled with huge violations of the elementary laws of physics,” reports the TG channel.
