it has bought some 240 engines since 2009.
there was also allegedly a contract for 240 in 2005 but that may not have materialized, as that was because of the never successful il76 buy in mid 2000s.
Or it has. We can't know. Or there are additional contracts which never went public.
What is pretty sure is that there is going to be at least 20 or so Y20 with d30kp, as well as 90+ h6k. As well as il76 fleet needing replacements.
that's something like 380 engines on planes themselves, without spares.
Which makes it likely that either the 2005 contract actually went through as well, or there were additional contracts that went unreported or that Y18 engine is actually been produced for years now.

Interesting
1st batch delivered in 2011 was 24 units ?
2nd batch 2013
3rd batch 2015
And 4th batch 2017
So production rate seems like 1 per month
Possibly close to 90 units
So they could add 5th and final to batch by 2019 and even slip in 6th batch before H-20
No 1 by month in service about 65 - 70 1st Rgt received in 2011 production begin in 2009-10
first proto 2007 first studies 2003
so about 8 -9 years quite sure they build 8 by year max
