Hardly a day passes without one of Russia's major airlines adding new aircraft to its fleet and those are increasingly coming aerodinamically-efficient sharklets too.

Just a few days ago we reported on Aeroflot being the first Russian airline to fly a sharklet-equipped A320, today is UTair's turn to get its Airbus A321 with sharklets...and it will soon have company, as the Siberian airline expects to get seven more of the type before the end of this year.
