History

Entering a new era, Russia prompted the need in new ways to demonstrate the national aerospace industry potential. So, 1992 saw the governmental resolution on the Gromov Flight Research Institute airfield (Zhukovsky, Moscow region) hosting a dedicated exhibition dubbed Mosaeroshow'92. The keen interest shown to it by both Russian and foreign companies, experts and businessmen added momentum to this undertaking. As a result, the Russian president authorised holding the exhibition on a regular basis and granting it the status of an international aerospace show. Thus, the MAKS came into being.

Numbers prove a significant growth of the scale of the MAKS aerospace show. Its organisers are quite certain that in the upcoming century the show shall keep on developing still further as an instrument of integrating Russia even further into the global aerospace community and expanding domestic cooperation.

At the MAKS a\r show the foreign partners display their products intended for the Russian market, as well as present their joint projects.
