Crusty in the right places. Worth the chew.
Summary
Russia has canceled the 2026 edition of its MAKS International Aviation and Space Salon, marking the fourth postponement since 2021. The cancellation order was posted on the government's legal information portal with no official reason given. The event, Russia's largest air show, was last held in 2021 before the full-scale invasion of Ukraine. It was previously postponed multiple times (from 2023 to 2024, then to 2025, and again). Russia still plans to hold MAKS in 2027.
