"Международный авиационно-космический салон (МАКС) (International Aviation and Space Salon, MAKS) is an international aerospace exhibition held biennially on odd years. The objective of the MAKS air show is to demonstrate leading technologies and to open up the Russian aerospace industry to the international market. The exhibition organizers are the Federal Agency for Industry (until 2009), the Moscow Government and Rostec and the overall organizer is "ОАО (Открытое акционерное общество) 'Авиасалон'" (English: OJSC (Open Joint Stock Company) "Aviasalon"), which was established on February 14, 1992.

The first show was dubbed "МосАэроШоу' 92" (short for Москва АэроШоу) (English: Mosaeroshow-92, short for Moscow Aeroshow) was held in 1992 and since 1993, the air show was renamed as MAKS.

It traces its origins to a series of diverse exhibitions such as "День Воздушного Флота Союза ССР (день авиации)" (English: USSR Air Fleet Day (Aviation Day)), later the "День Воздушного Флота России" (English: Russian Air Fleet Day) and the "День Вое́нно-возду́шных сил" (English: Air Force Day), currently officially labeled as "День Воздушно-космических сил Российской Федерации" (English: Day of the Aerospace Forces of the Russian Federation)
