Orbit Technologies Ltd. reported that Irkut had informed Orbit of the successful completion of a test flight of the innovative MC-21 passenger jet, a competitor of Boeing 737 and Airbus 320. Orbit's Orion communications management system was successfully installed and integrated in the plane, and is one of its standard systems. Orbit deals in satellite communications, tracking systems, and airplane communications and hearing management systems. The $4.5 billion Russian project has already generated millions of dollars in revenue for Orbit from the development and adaptation of the Orion system for the MC-21. Orbit expects follow-on orders in the coming years.
