Import substitution news: Superjets will replace foreign seat covers with domestic ones.

Rossiya Airlines has begun removing imported seat covers from its Superjet 100 passenger seats. Instead, it is ordering domestic genuine leather covers from a company with the patriotic name "Russian Leather." The airline is thus "actively participating in localization programs," the airline's press service reported.
"This is a powerful 'our answer to Chamberlain'," "And how it sounds. Domestic, import-substituting covers))," "It looks disgusting, reminds me of cheap taxi covers," "We also need to order covers with wooden bones, like the ones in 90s Ladas," write commentators.
Let's remember that genuine import substitution isn't going well in Russia: delivery dates for Russian aircraft are constantly being postponed.
