We can add that it’s also in demand. There are even foreign orders. Thank God they didn’t ruin the production.

In the USA and Canada it’s forbidden to buy them, although there is a desire and need,

I won’t be verbose, the plane is excellent, I visited the hydraulic show in Gelendzhik many times and watched the demonstration flights of this bird, but I know many people speak about the geography of its work, which speaks for itself

Great car, I watched it at work, last year we put out the fires. I went to Lake Kenon directly above my house, 100 meters. Just handsome! It sits on the lake and takes off almost immediately.
