TEHRAN, May 2 (Xinhua): Iran will purchase 400 passenger planes in the next ten years if the sanctions on its aviation fleet are lifted thoroughly, local media reported Thursday.
Under the country's Twenty-Year Vision Plan, which runs until March 2025, the Iranian air transportation industry will need 400 passenger planes, meaning that Iranian airlines should buy 40 aircraft a year, head of Iran's Civil Aviation Organisation Alireza Jahangirian was quoted as saying by Press TV.
Following an interim nuclear deal between Iran and the P5+1 group, the five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany, Boeing Co. and General Electric Co. have obtained licence by the US Treasury Department to export spare parts to Iran.
