Helicopter test complex to be built in 2021 in Bataysk

Holding "Helicopters of Russia" (part of Rostec) will build a new test complex for its Rostvertol enterprise in Bataysk in order to reduce, in particular, the number of test flights over Rostov, the holding said.

To date, design estimates have been developed for the flight test complex, a positive conclusion has been received, the main technical and economic indicators have been approved by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia. The construction of the facility is planned to be completed by the end of 2021. Within the framework of the project to create a helicopter cluster in Bataysk, it is also planned to transfer the Rostvertol aggregate-assembly production, the final assembly workshop and the production and logistics complex. By the end of the year, the development of the corresponding project documentation will be completed. In addition, a support and operation center for helicopter equipment and aviation The educational center.

The upgraded complex will allow, among other things, the use of the Mi-28, Mi-35 and Mi-26 machines as part of foreign customer training on the concluded contracts for the supply of helicopters. In addition, it will be possible to reduce test flights over the urban development of Rostov-on-Don and to ensure the performance of night flights in accordance with the test program outside the city.

To date, a temporary infrastructure has been deployed at the Bataysk airfield, which, from the beginning of the year, has enabled the implementation of 250 flights as part of the training of foreign specialists. The construction of a full-fledged flight test complex will reduce the number of flights in Rostov-on-Don, and the transfer of part of Rostvertol’s production capacity will contribute to the development of promising samples of helicopter technology. To fully implement the project of the helicopter cluster, we plan to 2024 year

6 years before the full implementation of the project .... a bit much ... and how many times during this time the cost will increase? .... and the right thing

The main thing is that there should be no haze during night flights, otherwise the pilots will have a khan

fixed the problem, according to Boginsky a year and a half ago

It’s a good start - you don’t have to fly over the metropolis, and the small town will benefit and get jobs.

Victor ... which is not to the detriment, it’s already good .. that’s just the timing

[KVU-NSVD]

The construction of the facility is planned to be completed by the end of 2021.

Hello Andrei . It seems to me 3.5 - 4 years for the first stage and another 2.5 - 3 for the implementation of all other Wishlist and reaching the desired performance

We plan to fully implement the helicopter cluster project by 2024

normal time for the construction of "landfill + assembly + infrastructure." In addition, construction costs are likely to be calculated taking into account "effortlessness" with investments and ensuring the normal operation of the main production.

and yet, it’s not a spaceport, it’s possible to accelerate ... I agree that

construction is calculated taking into account the "effortless"

and not a matter of record, but nonetheless

[KVU-NSVD]

The first priority (the site and infrastructure for testing) I think will be built quickly, and the rest will be slower .. But the main thing is to get away from testing over densely populated areas and the corresponding risks and claims ..

[assa67]

they don’t particularly disturb them there. I’ve been ... summer residents complain about the buzz, etc. ... so they climbed illegally into the passage corridors .. there was a scandal about this in the administration

[KVU-NSVD]

Probably the need to update the enterprise coincided with the ability to please the residents of the city with their complaints about flying over their heads at any time. Yes, and residents of Bataisk will be happy about jobs ..

[assa67]

yes, if a full-scale cluster is really under construction, then a lot of workers will need hands ... Rostec specialists will have their own, but at the front desk, service staff ..... God forbid

To build a practically new plant, an airfield and related infrastructure - not enough?

Do not tell. When the helicopter began to be built, it was on the outskirts. Now almost in the center of the city.
In December 2016 he was in Rostov on a business trip. He lived in the hotel "STAR" (Rostov know where it is. Almost not far from the main street). It was a free day, I decided to go to friends in Novocherkassk. I go out onto the steps of the hotel and hear the rumble of engines. Because of the buildings, at a distance of half a kilometer-kilometer MI_26 appears, not yet painted. And begins to make a left turn, towards the center of the city, and not right, to the outskirts. Honestly, the mood was not so hot. A car from the factory, how it can behave - HZ. And crash these half a hundred tons with fuel to the city - it’s even scary to imagine what will happen. Literally after 10-15 minutes, sitting in a taxi I watched a slightly different, but similar picture. Boeing (or Airbus) enters the airport strip. Not from the side of Aksay, but above the city ... But at least it's good that they built and put into operation a new Platov airport, which outside cities and glide paths do not pass over cities.
