The Sukhoi Superjet 100, also commonly known as the Sukhoi SSJ100, is a twin-engined regional jet designed by Russian aircraft company Sukhoi Civil Aircraft, a subsidiary of United Aircraft Corporation (Russian: Объединённая авиастроительная корпорация; also commonly romanized as Obyedinyonnaya Aviastroitelnaya Korporatsiya or OAK), a state-owned Russian aerospace and defense manufacturer headquartered in Khoroshyovsky District, Moscow, Russian Federation. The SSJ100 is manufactured by Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Plant (KnAAZ) at Komsomolsk-on-Amur, Khabarovsk Krai, in Russia’s Far East region.

Introduced in 2011, the SSJ100 is still in production, and by default is delivered in a passenger configuration. Over 200 have been built to date, but the type has been plagued by productivity and dependability issues, and hobbled significantly by international sanctions imposed on Russia following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The type sees active use in Russia, Thailand and Kazakhstan. The type formerly saw service in Mexico, Ireland, Indonesia, Armenia, Laos, and Switzerland. In recent years Sukhoi received orders or letters of intent from airlines in Russia, Iran, Mongolia and the United Arab Emirates, most of which have not been completed.
