It is assumed that a first flight of the aircraft model Rumas A-245 Guppy can realize 2017 in the year, and if the project is able to meet all the requirements, the serial implementation can begin as early as the year 2020. At present day, for several reasons, the design of this model aircraft temporarily halted, however, expected in the near future to recover all the work as the project certainly has a high percentage of prospects.
