Russia lifted all pandemic-related travel restrictions on July 1, and Russian airlines are operating at about 85% of 2019 capacity this winter season, according to data published on October 25 by OAG, a global travel data provider.

"On October 21, the upgraded Su-57 fifth-generation plane performed its debut flight at the Gromov Flight Testing Institute's airfield. The aircraft was flown by the Sukhoi Design Bureau test pilot, Hero of Russia Sergey Bogdan.
A Russian media star with strong ties to Putin fled the country, per multiple reports. Ksenia Sobchak, rumored to be Putin's god-daughter, is in Lithuania, an official there said. Ksenia Sobchak left Russia and entered Lithuania using an Israeli passport late on Tuesday, state-controlled media outlet TASS reported, citing unnamed law-enforcement officials. Putin has since described Sobchak as a mentor, and Ksenia has long been rumored to be Putin's god-daughter. Putin has clamped down hard on Russian media outlets in the last years, an effort that has, as of the invasion of Ukraine, all but silenced independent journalism in the country.

The Su-75 "Checkmate" is Russia's attempt at building a fifth-generation fighter for export. Originally revealed at the MAKS Airshow last year, the Su-75 was hailed as a solid move by Russia's United Aerospace Corporation, building off the Su-57 platform — Russia's first fifth-generation fighter. Stats and specsA Su-75 Checkmate prototype at MAKS-2021 in July 2021. They note that "The Checkmate fighter is outfitted with versatile armaments capable of fighting any threat: from unsheltered command posts to especially sensitive targets for a potential enemy." Additionally, if the production estimates of the Su-75 continue to be delayed, foreign clients may look elsewhere to fulfill their fighter needs.
Russia relies heavily on tech imports, which have been hit by sanctions over the Ukraine war. However, given the sanctions against the country, imports into Russia — especially those of aircraft — have collapsed, creating a huge problem for the country, which relies on tech imports. "From this year, we don't rely on international cooperation with Western countries," Rostec told Reuters. "Foreign aircraft will drop out of the fleet," Rostec told Reuters. Russia has tried to counter the sanctions by substituting Western imports with those from non-sanctioning countries or looking to homegrown options.
"Foreign aircraft will drop out of the fleet," Rostec said in a written response to Reuters questions about its plans and the situation in Russia's aviation industry. "We believe that this process is irreversible and Boeing and Airbus planes will never be delivered to Russia," it said. Russian airlines, including Aeroflot, splurged on Boeing and Airbus aircraft as they sought to rebuild their fleets after the chaos of the 1990s. The MS-21 has been Russia's attempt to break into the main part of the jet market dominated by Airbus and Boeing. Then we will install PD-8 engines on this type of aircraft," Rostec said.

"Sanctions on Russian titanium would hardly harm Russia, because they only account for a small part of export revenues there. In March, Airbus said it "is directly sourcing titanium from Russia as well as from other countries" and indirectly acquiring Russian titanium via suppliers. On Tuesday, it reaffirmed this in answer to a Reuters query but declined to say when it had last received Russian titanium. Last month, Boeing said it had suspended buying Russian titanium.
Russia's security elites are silovarchs, a term combining "oligarch" and "siloviki" ("people of force.") Analyst Hugo Crosthwaite said silovarchs are closer to President Vladimir Putin than oligarchs. According to Treisman, oligarchs do not hold a great deal of political influence, while silovarchs are more powerful. Table of Silovarchs Viktor Ivanov – former chair of the board for Almaz-Antei and Aeroflot – had a career in Soviet KGB and Russian FSB.
