Tupolev Tu-204
open-in-new
<h2 id="design-and-development">Design and development</h2> <p>The Tu-204 was designed as a family of aircraft incorporating passenger, cargo, combi and quick-change variants. It is powered by either two <a href="/facts/Aviadvigatel_PS-90/vpnBLcd8">Aviadvigatel PS-90</a> or <a href="/facts/Rolls-Royce_RB211/v9mN1USx">Rolls-Royce RB211</a> engines. The Tu-204 is produced at two of the largest Russian aircraft manufacturing plants in <a href="/facts/Ulyanovsk/Pcuw1SjV">Ulyanovsk</a> (Tu-204 series) and <a href="/facts/Kazan/dpeeCpGH">Kazan</a> (Tu-214).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5"><sup>5</sup></a> </p><p>The Tu-204 cabin is available in several layouts, including the baseline single-class layout seating for 210 passengers and a two- or three-class layout designed for 164–193 passengers. A cargo version of the Tu-204 is being successfully operated by several airlines in Europe and <a href="/facts/Egypt/8Ttg0JwB">Egypt</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6"><sup>6</sup></a> </p> <p>Seating configuration is 3–3 in <a href="/facts/Economy_class/4ezsdIKx">economy</a> and 2–2 in <a href="/facts/Business_class/MrCeJfYb">Business class</a>. The business class cabin has a seat pitch of 810 millimetres (31.9 in). The passenger cabin can be divided into compartments according to class with removable bulkheads and curtains. Compartments are illuminated by reflected light. Overhead bins for passenger baggage and coats are of the closed type. The volume of baggage per passenger is 0.052 cubic metres (1.8 cu ft).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7"><sup>7</sup></a> </p><p>In 1994, the first certificate for Tu-204 aircraft (with PS-90A engines) was issued. Subsequently, issued certificates have extended estimated operational conditions. The Tu-204-120 variant, certified with Rolls-Royce RB211-535E4 engines, complies with <a href="/facts/Noise_regulation/qbMQuCxb">noise regulations</a> described in Chapter 3 of Supplement 16 to <a href="/facts/ICAO/TzrL1mLr">ICAO</a>, hence meeting all current European and ICAO requirements.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8"><sup>8</sup></a> The Tu-204-100 variant, certified with PS-90A engines, complies with noise regulations described in Chapter 4 of Supplement 16 to ICAO which means it is quieter. The aircraft was certified to Russian standards AP-25 (harmonized with FAR-25 and JAR-25).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9"><sup>9</sup></a> </p> <h3>Technology</h3> <p>The Tu-204 is part of the same generation of Russian aircraft as the <a href="/facts/Ilyushin_Il-96/6lJcaoql">Ilyushin Il-96</a>. The Tu-204 features technologies such as <a href="/facts/Fly-by-wire/nhyXB248">fly-by-wire</a> control systems, a <a href="/facts/Glass_cockpit/pmEDaQrF">glass cockpit</a>, <a href="/facts/Supercritical_wing/TLFl9sUp">supercritical wings</a> with <a href="/facts/Wingtip_device/rPUr5Ju4">winglets</a>, and is available with Russian or foreign avionics.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10"><sup>10</sup></a> The wings and tails are relatively resistant to ice build-up, and as such anti-icing systems are not equipped. Among today's airliners the Tu-204 is the only one which does not require wing anti-icing systems. During the test flight safety has been confirmed without the anti-icing system on the bearing surfaces and the aircraft obtained Russian and European certificates.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11"><sup>11</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="tu-204-variants">Tu-204 variants</h2> <h3>Tu-204/204C</h3> <p>The Tu-204 is the basic passenger airline model, and the Tu-204C is the basic freight or cargo model. The most-used models are the -100C and the -120C.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12"><sup>12</sup></a> </p> <h3>Tu-204-100/200</h3> <p>Certified in January 1995, this initial version is powered by Soloviev (now <a href="/facts/Aviadvigatel/glJ823f5">Aviadvigatel</a>) <a href="/facts/Aviadvigatel_PS90/vpnBLcd8">PS90</a> <a href="/facts/Turbofan/x8XWVw19">turbofans</a> with 157 kN (35,300 lbf) of thrust, and uses Russian avionics in addition to its Russian engines. The Tu-204-200 is a heavier version with extra fuel for more range. Only one was built by <a href="/facts/Aviastar-SP/NVwyArAo">Aviastar-SP</a> in <a href="/facts/Ulyanovsk/Pcuw1SjV">Ulyanovsk</a> but has not yet been delivered (RA-64036). Now this version is only produced by <a href="/facts/Kazan_Aircraft_Production_Association/e8n8YhQf">KAPO</a> in Kazan, marketed under the designation Tu-214. The Tu-204-100C and Tu-204-200C are cargo versions of the −100 and −200 respectively, fitted with a forward main deck freight door. Currently,[<i>when?</i>] the Tu-204-100/200 is offered with the option of an up-rated Aviadvigatel <a href="/facts/Aviadvigatel_PS-90/vpnBLcd8">PS90A2</a> turbofan, which promises 40% more service between overhauls.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13"><sup>13</sup></a> </p><p>The Tu-204-100's <a href="/facts/Maximum_take-off_weight/tjdrYcoo">maximum take-off weight</a> (MTOW) is 107.5 tonnes, and its range with 196 passengers in a two-class configuration is 6,000 kilometres (3,700 mi). </p> <h3>Tu-204-120/220/120C/220C</h3> <p>To broaden product appeal, the Tu-204-120/220 offers non-Russian avionics and engines. It is powered by two <a href="/facts/Rolls-Royce_RB211/v9mN1USx">Rolls-Royce RB211-535</a> engines, each with thrust of 192 kN (43,100 lbf). Egypt's <a href="/facts/Cairo_Aviation/6aPGoy29">Cairo Aviation</a> became the debut operator in November 1998 when it took delivery of a Tu-204-120 and its cargo version the Tu-204-120C. The Tu-204-220 and Tu-204-220C cargo version, are a higher gross weight variants of the basic Tu-204-120.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14"><sup>14</sup></a> </p><p>The Tu-204-120 has a maximum takeoff weight of 103 metric tons and a range of 4,600 kilometres (2,500 nmi) with 196 passengers in a two-class seating configuration. </p> <h3>Tu-204-300</h3> <p>A shortened, longer-range and more efficient derivative of the Tu-204, the Tu-204-300 is also known as Tu-234. About six meters (20 ft) shorter than the basic Tu-204, this variant is available in two versions: the longer-ranged, heavier version, powered by <a href="/facts/Aviadvigatel_PS-90/vpnBLcd8">Aviadvigatel PS-90A2</a> turbofans, has a maximum take-off weight of 107.5 metric tons and range (with 166 passengers) increased to 9,300 kilometres (5,000 nmi); and the lighter, shorter-ranged version, with a maximum take-off weight of 89 metric tons and range of 3,500 kilometres (1,900 nmi) with 166 passengers. The former Russian airline <a href="/facts/Vladivostok_Air/TkmCVqr4">Vladivostok Air</a> was the debut customer. This airline's aircraft are in a two-class seating configuration, with a 142-passenger capacity. Average numbers of flight hours during each 24-hour period is 9.35 hours, for year 2009. It is also operated by <a href="/facts/Air_Koryo/PIdEfIrD">Air Koryo</a> which currently[<i>when?</i>] operates one Tu-204-100B and one Tu-204-300. The Тu-204s operate on the Pyongyang-Beijing, Bangkok, Vladivostok, Shenyang and Kuala Lumpur routes.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15"><sup>15</sup></a> </p> <h3>Tu-204-500</h3> <p>This is a version of the Tu-204-300 optimized for shorter routes, featuring smaller wings and an increased cruising speed (to Mach 0.84), which makes it a competitor to the Next Generation <a href="/facts/Boeing_737/Emwxb7JI">Boeing 737</a>. It is <a href="/facts/ETOPS/LROPS/aRQN9us3">ETOPS</a> rated, and fitted with a Honeywell 331-200ER <a href="/facts/Auxiliary_Power_Unit/oEdDBr27">APU</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:16" href="#fn:16"><sup>16</sup></a> </p> <h3>Tu-206</h3> <p>The Tu-206 is a company-funded concept aircraft that, if built, would be used as a <a href="/facts/Testbed/ITQIUXFc">testbed</a> for alternative fuels, specifically <a href="/facts/Liquefied_natural_gas/HIm7BbAl">liquefied natural gas</a>.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:17" href="#fn:17"><sup>17</sup></a> </p> <h3>Tu-204SM</h3> <p>The Tu-204SM, alternatively Tu-204CM,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:18" href="#fn:18"><sup>18</sup></a> a medium-range airliner, is an upgraded version of the Tu-204-100/300.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:19" href="#fn:19"><sup>19</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:20" href="#fn:20"><sup>20</sup></a> While the Tu-204SM will retain key design and aerodynamic features of the Tu-204-100/100E/100V series, there are numerous upgrades, largely aimed at meeting the current and near-future Russian and international standards, including those of <a href="/facts/ICAO/TzrL1mLr">ICAO</a> and <a href="/facts/Eurocontrol/sYdPuGua">Eurocontrol</a>. </p><p>The new cockpit features allow the Tu-204SM to be flown by a two-pilot crew (as compared with the three-pilot arrangement of the original Tu-204 series). These features include a new computer (VSUPT-85-2040), a new <a href="/facts/Flight_management_system/K2M4Sb9C">flight management system</a> (ASO-204/FMS), wide <a href="/facts/Liquid-crystal_display/8B6xGBEz">LCD displays</a> (KSEIS-204E), <a href="/facts/Head-up_display/FstcQ9sh">head-up displays (HUD)</a>, and an automated board system maintenance and diagnostic system. The <a href="/facts/Electronic_flight_bag/FRy0uzjD">electronic flight bag</a> concept will be implemented and all controls and displays will be in English. </p><p>The Tu-204SM will be powered by two <a href="/facts/PS-90/vpnBLcd8">PS-90</a>A2 engines. The latter is significantly improved over the original <a href="/facts/PS-90/vpnBLcd8">PS-90</a>A power plants.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:21" href="#fn:21"><sup>21</sup></a> and features a unified twin-spool turbofan with a high bypass ratio. The <a href="/facts/PS-90/vpnBLcd8">PS-90</a>A2 is expected a life cycle cost saving of 35% over the original engine with a simultaneous increase in reliability in the 50 to 100% range. The <a href="/facts/PS-90/vpnBLcd8">PS-90</a>A2 is designed to meet the Russian AP-33 aviation standard, which is harmonized with the US FAR Part 33 and the European JAR33. </p><p>There will also be a new <a href="/facts/Auxiliary_power_unit/oEdDBr27">APU</a> (TA-18 APU-200) and upgraded fuel management, hydraulic and fire safety systems. </p><p>The updated passenger cabin accommodates a maximum of 210 passengers or 174 in a typical two-class layout. The upgrades include<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22"><sup>22</sup></a><a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23"><sup>23</sup></a> new larger storage bins, multicolored <a href="/facts/LED_lighting/kMsxpkk9">LED lighting</a>, sound-absorbing structures and a modern <a href="/facts/In-flight_entertainment/uDNC2tSl">in-flight entertainment system (IFE)</a>. </p><p>The price for one Tu-204SM is estimated at <a href="/facts/USD/naEEDUhC">USD</a> 40–47 million. </p><p>The first test flight of Tu-204SM was successfully carried out on 29 December 2010.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:24" href="#fn:24"><sup>24</sup></a> First deliveries of Tu-204SM were originally planned for 2011.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:25" href="#fn:25"><sup>25</sup></a> As of December 2019, no Tu-204SM aircraft have been delivered and the project likely will never see fruition. </p> <h4>Tu-204SM orders</h4> <p><a href="/facts/Red_Wings_Airlines/h3y4M0ev">Red Wings Airlines</a> was the first airline to order the Tu-204SM. Ilyushin Finance Co. (IFC) said it would complete negotiations with Red Wings for 44 Tu-204SM aircraft in February, to sign a firm order in March 2011. Red Wings already operates a fleet of Tu-204-100 and Tu-204-100V jetliners, to which it added one airframe in 2010.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:26" href="#fn:26"><sup>26</sup></a> Russia's largest aircraft lessor, Ilyushin Finance, has previously placed Tu-204-100 aircraft with Cubana, Air Koryo and Red Wings, and Tu-204-300s with Vladivostok Avia and Air Koryo. Faced with low production rates for the Tu-204 models, Tupolev asked component providers to lower their prices in order to cut the plane's overall price by 27–30%. These suppliers agreed, on condition that 44 more firm orders be secured for the Tu-204SM through 2016. </p><p>By January 2012 a firm order from Red Wings had not been signed, the stumbling blocks being requests for guarantees of the residual value of the airframes and after-sales support at a cost the same as an equivalent Airbus or Boeing model.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:27" href="#fn:27"><sup>27</sup></a> It was subsequently announced that Red Wings had cut back its initial commitment from 44 to 15 Tu-204SMs due to delays to the flight-test programme and after the lessor Ilyushin Finance reportedly "lost interest".<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:28" href="#fn:28"><sup>28</sup></a> </p><p>A large order by <a href="/facts/Iran_Air_Tours/J5x6fJmF">Iran Air Tours</a> came under threat because of sanctions against the Iranian economy, as the American company <a href="/facts/Pratt_%26_Whitney/DI4FhYep">Pratt & Whitney</a> has been involved in the development of the engine with the <a href="/facts/Perm_Engine_Company/glJ823f5">Perm Engine Company</a>. Completing the sale by re-equipping the Tu-204SMs with the Tu-204's Russian-made PS-90A engines was later proposed.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:29" href="#fn:29"><sup>29</sup></a> Ultimately, however, this deal did not materialize. </p><p>At the Singapore Air Show in 2016 the Vice President of the Russian United Aircraft Corporation stated that every company that has ordered the Tu-204 has gone bankrupt so there were no outstanding orders for the Tu-204SM, and Tupolev has frozen development work on the aircraft and UAC would withdraw it from their list of aircraft prices as soon as the <a href="/facts/Irkut_MC-21/71aQ3VK7">Irkut MC-21</a> comes to the market.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:30" href="#fn:30"><sup>30</sup></a> </p> <h2 id="tu-214-variants">Tu-214 variants</h2> <h3>Tu-214</h3> <p>The Tu-214 is also a variation of the Tu-204 first flown on 21 March 1996.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:31" href="#fn:31"><sup>31</sup></a> It is technically a Tu-204-200, one of the differences being that it is built by a different factory.

The Tu-204 has two main doors and two emergency doors; the Tu-214 has three doors and one emergency door. </p><p>The Tu-214 is essentially a higher gross weight variant of the Tu-204, being fitted with extra fuel tanks and structural adjustments to deal with the heavier gross weight. For this reason, the Russian government prefers to use it as the platform upon which all further modifications for the 'Special Mission' variants will be based.
