Tupolev TU-144 was the world's first supersonic passenger aircraft. The prototype first flew on December 31, 1968 about two months before Concorde's first flight, near Moscow. During the 55-hour-hour operational history, TU-144 reached 16,000 meters of service altitude and over Mach 2 air speed. Test flight) had a very important effect on its future.

Tupolev TU-144 was a four-motor, completely metal, Soviet-made supersonic plane. The provocation was provided by four NK-144-A or RD-36-51-A engine. The prototype's flight took place in December 1968, and in the period of 1975-1984, small mass production took place in Voronezh Aviation Works. In total, only 16 aircraft were built. While working on, they probably trusted the materials stolen from the French Aerospatiale company working on Concord. Undoubtedly, TU -144 was a very extraordinary and groundbreaking machine - it was the first passenger aircraft in history to reach a speed of 2 mA. However, the high working pace was effective on the overall quality of the machine. Most of the time, there was loss of fuel, motor failure or wing cracks during the flight. These lens-like faults and defects concentrated in the TU-144 accident at the Paris Air Show in 1973. In addition, TU-144 was characterized by enormous fuel consumption (especially supersonic flights), medium range and much labor. Intensive for ground services. Paradox was that the only route he flew was Moscow-Alma-Ata connection! The official and non -popular recall of these machines took place in 1978 three years after their introduction.
