In 2016 and 2017 the Russian companies presented only civilian aircraft at the airshow, due to restrictions imposed by the organizers.
In 2014, the Russian delegation did not take part in the event because of visa problems.
The 2018 Farnborough Airshow in the United Kingdom will be held from July 16 to July 22.
