Kazakhstan will acquire ECNNUMX 20 helicopters

European company Eurocopter (part of EADS) 10 in May 2012 issued a press release stating that during the defense exhibition KADEX-3 held in Astana from 6 to 2012 in Astana, the Government of Kazakhstan signed a letter of understanding regarding the acquisition of 20 medium Eurocopter multi-purpose helicopters EC725 Cougar for the Ministry of Defense of the Republic. The details of the agreement are not given, but it is indicated that helicopters should be assembled in Kazakhstan (apparently, at the facilities of the joint venture Eurocopter Kazakhstan Engineering established in Astana, where Eurocopter EC145 helicopters should also be assembled). It is also reported that earlier the government of Kazakhstan has already chosen the civilian version of the ES725 (helicopter EC225 Super Puma) for VIP traffic.

This is the third agreement for the purchase by Kazakhstan of military aviation production techniques of EADS. Earlier, an agreement was signed for the purchase (with a partial disruption in Kazakhstan) of 45 medium-sized multi-purpose Eurocopter EC145 helicopters (started supplying at the end of 2011, six vehicles have been delivered to date) and a contract for the purchase of two Airbus Military C-295M military transport aircraft with a memorandum mutual understanding for the purchase of six more such machines. At KADEX 2012, Kazakhstan's Deputy Minister of Defense, Major General Talgat Zhanzhumenov, also announced ongoing negotiations with EADS regarding the acquisition of "up to four" new medium-sized military transport aircraft Airbus Military A400M.

        Yes, she's no better. In operation, it is much worse and worse, but in the cost of operation it is much worse. But it should be noted that Kazakhstan has recently begun to actively acquire weapons in third countries, not always successfully (remember the artillery from Israel). The main driving moment here is joint production on the territory of the republic. Although there are many questions here, screwdriver assembly cannot be high-tech and is unlikely to open access to high technologies for Kazakhstan, I think that the joint production of Russian equipment could also be discussed, and much more profound. As it turns out not fun ... Let's take a look at what Kazakhstan buys and see that there are analogues in Russia and better - SCRC "Exocet" France, BTR "Cobra" Turkey, BTR-4 Ukraine, Vetolety Europe, Artillery Israel. And everything is very mediocre

          yes it would be so super, but the manufacturers of Russian technology do not want to transfer and train the assembly of our specialists.

      That's not all.
      The Ministry of Defense of Kazakhstan, the Kazakhstan Engineering national company and the European manufacturers MBDA and INDRA Sistemas have signed a protocol of intentions on cooperation in the formation of coastal defense in the Kazakh part of the Caspian Sea, Interfax-Kazakhstan reports.

      As noted in the joint press release of Kazengineering and European companies, distributed on Thursday, a coastal defense system will be created for the Kazakh Navy on the basis of the family of the new MBDA anti-ship missile - Exocet MM40 Block 3.

      "The implementation of this project will significantly contribute to improving the security of Kazakhstan, especially in the Caspian region," said Vice President of Kazakhstan Engineering Dimash Bizhanov at the signing ceremony, quoted in the message.

      In turn, Didier Philippe, Vice President for Export Sales of MBDA, noted at the ceremony that the newest Exocet MM40 Block 3 will allow Kazakhstan to protect its coastal and marine resources. "We are ready to start working with Kazakhstan Engineering to supply this outstanding coastal defense," he said.

      Guys as they say nothing personal just information for thinking

      US will control three quarters of oil production in Kazakhstan, - Marat Shibutov, a Kazakhstani representative of the Association for Cross-Border Cooperation, writes about this in his research on the pages of the Tengrinews portal. The expert cites data on US assets: "the main areas of investment are the oil and gas industry, engineering, energy, agriculture. It should be noted that American investors were among the first to come to Kazakhstan and immediately occupied certain niches, from which they then tried not to leave."

      "The AES group of companies is investing in the energy sector. It almost completely controls the energy sector of the East Kazakhstan region - not only through the purchase or construction of new enterprises, but through the acquisition of enterprises under management: AES Corporation is an energy company engaged in the production of electricity, its distribution and alternative energy

      "it turns out that the United States, represented by its companies, has entered very important and key niches for Kazakhstan: control over the three largest and longest-exploited oil and gas fields in Kazakhstan, which in the future will constitute the country's main export potential. At the same time, American corporations will receive substantial profits - this is in addition to the oil itself, which can be sold to anyone, anytime.Control over the main oil export pipeline in the coming years.Control over the energy system of the country's most important industrial region - the East Kazakhstan region, where fuel pellets for nuclear reactors are produced, as well as strategic for the military industry niobium, beryllium, titanium, magnesium.

        Aleksey 67. This "specialist" in cross-border cooperation is completely out of the question, apparently this report was made under someone's order. 33% in the oil and gas sector belongs to KazMunayGas - nat. companies, about 20% of Chinese companies, a little owned by our oligarchs. The rest is the United States, Italy, Great Britain, Russia (Lukoil), France, etc. Generally speaking, Kazakhstan has passed a law, if a company leaves a project, then the government of Kazakhstan has the advantage in acquiring this block of shares. face of "KazMunayGas". Recently, at the beginning of the year, the government of Kaz. by imposing environmental fines on the largest field, Karachaganak, forced Western companies to transfer 10% of shares to KazMunayGaz. Of course, the United States is present at all major fields, but three quarters is too much. For example, at the largest oil field, Tengiz, Chevron (USA) and KazMunayGaz are 50-50. Moreover, Chevron is constantly being spanked - audits and problems are found. They were forced to build a plant for the production of plastic pipes, pump associated gas into the strata, took part in the construction of the CPC pipeline, and now they are preparing to build wind farms. And they all do it, how cute. Our oligarchs would have begun to use gray schemes long ago, but these are afraid, they are cured into the budget without delay. And one more fact. About 80 mil. tons of oil. Of these, 5 mil. goes to China (a new pipeline for 10 mil. tons, another 5 mil. is loaded by Russia), somewhere else 5 mil. goes by tankers to Azerbaijan in Tbilisi-Ceyhan (if not less, because Azerbaijan has enough oil of its own). About 20 miles. We consume it ourselves, but the rest goes through RUSSIA. So whoever controls the oil pipelines is the one who calls the tune. And the fact that Russia and Kazakhstan work in unison on the energy market is very important. When, under Yushchenko, there were problems with pumping gas through Ukraine, our 01 (as Nazarbayev is sometimes called in Kazakhstan) came to Germany. And he spoke very harshly on this topic - like our Asian partners will gladly take our oil and gas, if the West does not bring Yushchenko to reason. The pressure on Russia from the West abated immediately. And how many Western leaders came to us (for example from Poland) with a proposal on alternative routes for transporting oil and gas (the same Nabuco). The answer was always the same: we have had these opportunities for a long time and they lead through Russia, if you want to increase supplies - fine, we will agree on everything ourselves, this is not your problem. Your problem will come to an agreement with the transit countries. And we are not going to build new transportation routes, we have them.

        RIA News. In the future, Russia will purchase only one-time samples of foreign-made military equipment in order to master the technology and then establish its production, the First Deputy Chairman of the Military-Industrial Commission under the Government of the Russian Federation Yuri Borisov told reporters on Saturday.

        So he commented on the message that Russia could acquire in Italy a license for the production of Centauro wheeled tanks. As a representative of the manufacturing company Oto Melara told RIA Novosti earlier on Saturday, two combat vehicles are already being tested in the Moscow Region.

        "The Russian Federation will definitely purchase only one-time samples of foreign-made equipment in order to understand, master the technology, and then set up its own production," Borisov explained.

        According to him, the military "have long been saying that they would like to see wheeled tanks in service." "People choose, they see what is good in the world," he added.

        Earlier, a number of military experts interviewed by RIA Novosti also noted that the Centauro test is the next step in the study of the Russian Ministry of Defense of advanced models of foreign weapons and military equipment, however, licensed production of these machines in Russia is hardly possible.

        The crew of Centauro is four people, the combat weight is 24 tons, the maximum speed is 100 kilometers per hour, the power reserve is 800 kilometers. In service are the gun, as well as two machine guns of 7,62 mm caliber. These tanks are in service with four countries - Italy, Spain, Oman and Egypt.

          But on the topic itself, in Centaurus there is nothing special that the Russian Federation and even Ukraine appeared a customer. It basically repeats Yuarovsky Ruikat, access to which the USSR got after the fighting in Angola, and is just a light tank on wheels.

You can immediately see the use of combat experience, though in a certain terrain. It would certainly be better if you bought from Ukraine Oplot-M but no so no, Merkava 4 is a very worthy acquisition.

              Well, if it IS NECESSARY to buy abroad, it would be better to look towards South Africa

                        I learned this after studying this issue !!

                        It is designed for action in the desert and mountains, mainly the Golan and Lebanon. The suspension is designed for the Golan, where all the rocks and mountains (maximum 2 km altitude at the peak). For this, each skating rink has an independent suspension with a very large stroke - much more than on Abrams or Russian T. This allows you to move at good speed over rocks and rocks, where the T-72 breaks its suspension, which is not designed for this. Some skating rinks have air depressors (as in steep jeeps). In addition, the engine is not a gas turbine engine, but a turbodiesel, because gas turbine engines in the mountains or in the desert do not pull well because of the height - they need a high density of air, sand - the air filter clogs, and gas turbine engines eat a lot of air or heat - for gas turbine engines, the thrust is very dependent on air temperature. The gearbox is multi-stage, and besides, there is no clutch in the gearbox at all, transmission of traction on oil pressure, as in civilian gearboxes, which greatly reduces engine and gearbox wear and makes driving very easy!

                        My dear, you can provide me with a source that Merkava is a great colossus for highlands.
                        I heard about the purchase of Merkava4

                        Instead of purchasing weapons, ours spend about 100 million on Eurovision sad For this money, you could buy at least 60 T-90A tanks







                        it would be better to buy tanks and helicopters.

                        There is already no such thing as a heavy tank. T-90 And ​​it is also a heavy one.

                        But in the mountains and to Karabakh we will not finish on Merkava. We need both Fertilizer and T-90s. This is what you need.

                        Merkava will go, take T-90A well, I don’t know if it makes sense, I just don’t know what your opponents are armed with, and so if Oplot M is compared with T-90A, then Oplot is preferable.

    Despite victorious reports and loud promises, is something amiss in the native Fatherland? Their production facilities and research institutes are closing under the guise of modernization, and joint ventures crawl out like mushrooms after rain. And what is particularly depressing, for some reason, ammunition production is being curtailed, and part of the production is being transferred to NATO standards. What is it for? Sincerely.

        Yes, great news. When I read about this, that there is talk of buying an Mi-28N, I was immediately glad, because the helicopter is a very serious weapon.
        Usually the arms race between the USSR and the USA was forever. In order not to be created from the burg, the Soviet Union responded with dignity.
        This Mi-28H helicopter is the answer to the American AH-64 Apache. I always read that the Soviet Union responded in such a way that weapons were created much earlier than their time.

        I decided to check it myself.

        Googled and that's what I found laughing
        http://topwar.ru/756-mi-28n-i-an-64-apache-protiv-ka-52.html

        On the Mi-28H installed a modified tank gun 2А42, old and proven. It is noticeably heavier than the American and has a serious impact. However, helicopter designers coped with the latter problem, achieving accuracy even higher than that of the American competitor. But, having solved a number of difficulties, they received the most powerful helicopter gun in the world: the weight of the projectile and the initial speed was almost twice as high as that of the M230, the firing range was 4 km, and the firing rate was up to 900 shots per minute. The projectile fired from the Mi-28H flies 15-mm armor from the 1,5-kilometer distance.

        Compared with the Apache AN-64, the Mi-28N is heavier by almost 3 tons, but its engines are also more powerful, which even gives it a gain in maximum combat load and in flight characteristics. In addition, the view from the cockpit of the Mi-28N is better.

        Macdonell Douglas AH-64 (APACHE)
        Weight: 5165 (empty) with combat load - 6552 t
        The diameter of the screw is 14,6 m.
        Two 1723 hp turboprop engines

          Ataturc. Rather, "Apache" was the answer to the Mi-24, tk. it surpassed all Western turntables of the time. And they naturally needed a car that could compete with him. Although some of the characteristics of the Mi-24 have not yet been surpassed - speed, thrust equipment. The tactics of using the "Apache" is different - from an ambush, the Mi-24 attacks mainly in an airplane way, with approaching the target at speed. Yours faithfully

    Regarding cooperation with Russia, a plant has been operating in Kazakhstan for a long time that successfully modernizes and repairs helicopter KB Mil helicopters, naturally, together with the Russian Federation, after the Soviet Union, Kazakhstan got a decent amount of transport and combat helicopters, even a couple of MI-14 brought in specialists know what kind of helicopter it is, Kazakhstan has already come in line with the purchase of helicopters and the problem here is not with the Russians or Kazakhs or in money, but in the capabilities of Russian plants. Why the French are the same why Mistral, engines made by Superjet are also in conjunction with the Russian NGO Saturn and the French company Snecma. Sincerely.

            veteran air force,
            MiG-27, from Ukraine.

            Colleague, you are deeply mistaken, MiG-27 (according to NATO codification: Flogger-D, Flogger-Dee - English. Scourge)
            The reform of the Belarusian Air Force led to the withdrawal of long-range bombers to Russia, after which only front-line and army aircraft remained in the military aviation. The units on the Su-24 bombers, Su-25 attack aircraft and MiG-29 fighters from the regiments were reorganized into "air bases" and were operatively subordinated to the General Staff of the Air Force. The Belarusian aircraft retained the same red stars as in the Russian Air Force. There was no place for the MiG-27 in the Belarusian Air Force, although 36 cars of the 911 Apib were withdrawn from Germany to Lida. Their fate was a foregone conclusion even before gaining sovereignty: observing the contractual limits and leaving only modern technology in service, the planes were allowed to be eliminated (although the regiment had the latest MiG-27K and M series, which served only a few years). Dismantling of aircraft with undocking of consoles, empennage and dismantling of equipment was carried out at the ARZ in Baranovichi, after which the units were taken to the neighboring Lesnaya garrison at the former missile base, where they were cut into metal. Disposal was accompanied by an invitation from foreign observers and correspondents, but the workers of the plant nearly disrupted the decency, refusing to destroy equipment with their own hands. Nevertheless, the first MiG-27s were exponentially destroyed on April 1, 1993.
            Along with the sovereignty of the republic, solid aviation forces — four VAs, 10 air divisions, 49 regiments and 11 separate squadrons — consisting of 2800 aircraft and helicopters and 120 soldiers and officers — were acquired. By power, the Ukrainian Air Force was not inferior to the leading European powers.

            On the basis of the headquarters of the 24th Air Force in Vinnitsa in March 1992, the command of the Ukrainian Air Force was formed. Commander V. Antonets proclaimed "bringing the Air Force in line with the peace-loving policy of Ukraine * led to a large-scale reduction of units, aircraft and combat training, which culminated in the graduation of pilot officers who did not receive flight training from schools. In 1995, the share of combat aviation in total air force flight time dropped to 10% (the rest went to the transport workers who earned money), the average flight time per crew was 9 hours, and funding for the maintenance of aircraft did not reach even 1% of the required, forcing the Verkhovna Rada to state: "Our Air Force is under the fence."

            Against this background, the trade in equipment that was removed from the states and was in storage turned out to be successful. Usually it was put up for sale at bargain prices and at the "residual value" of the 60s and 70s.

            There were no MiG-27s in the shelves in Ukraine before the collapse of the USSR - the 642nd Apib in Voznesensk in 1990 was rearmament on the MiG-29, becoming the only one in the IBA on aircraft of this type. By the beginning of 1992, the MiG-27M and D in the amount of 49 pieces were under repair at the ARZ in Lviv and the storage base in Ovruch. The command of the Ukrainian Air Force was not going to use the MiG-27 - without it, during the reduction by the end of 2000, only the most modern aircraft were planning to leave in service. Nevertheless, they were not in a hurry to cut them into metal: in accordance with the agreements, only old and used-up equipment — MiG-21, Tu-16 and Tu-22 of thirty-forty years of age — was allowed to liquidate. The MiG-27s, which had undergone repairs and acceptance, were kept with due care: almost all aircraft were protected from the weather in closed workshops and hangars, undocked for occupancy density, preserved and sheathed.

            The MiG-27 and other equipment were offered for several years at international arms exhibitions and through the channels of the Ministry of Defense, but without success (their price was called $ 16 million, clearly unrealistic). Ultimately, four MiG-27Ms were acquired by Sri Lanka, which had practically no modern combat vehicles before. The aircraft passed the bulkhead and changed their camouflage to neutral gray. For their overflight, pilots with experience in piloting the MiG-27 were sent from Vinnitsa, after which in early August 2000 the aircraft on board the Il-76 were delivered to the customer. Based on the experience of successful use in December 2000, Sri Lanka purchased three more aircraft from Ukraine - two combat MiG-27s and a MiG-23UB "twin".
            Kazakhstan: the MiG-27 on the territory of Kazakhstan was in the 129th apib in Taldy-Kurgan and the 134th apib in Zhangiztob, which were part of the 24th mixed air division (in addition to the two IBA regiments, it included the 149th bap in Nikolaevka near Almaty Atoi and the 905th IAP in Taldy-Kurgan, which, in fact, were limited to front-line aviation forces in the republic). In the course of the reduction of the Armed Forces in recent years of the USSR, in order to preserve the honorary names of the deserved units and formations to be disbanded, by the decision of the leadership of the Ministry of Defense their numbers and titles were transferred to those remaining in service. Sometimes at the same time the names were transmitted twice and thrice and the titles were added, leading to double track records of parts and long sonorous names with the mention of aggregate regalia. The number and name of the 11th garden removed from Hungary in 1990 were assigned to the Taldy-Kurgan 24th garden, which became known as the 11th Guards Dnepropetrovsk Red Banner Order of Bohdan Khmelnitsky Garden.
            At the moment, the MIG-27 is used in the Indian Air Force, presumably the Cuban Air Force, and the Kazakh Air Force is the main fighter-bomber
            modernization was carried out under the supervision of the MIG Design Bureau.

          After the modernization of the MiG-27 of the Indian Air Force, it was concluded that the MIG Design Bureau knows its car better, and Kazakhstan is also in the CSTO and has one air defense system with the Russian Federation, now in Israel, in terms of modernization, there were too many problems in terms of modernization, let them help with tanks or with artillery and then with the transfer of technologies and licenses, but not in aviation, why? you probably understand that Israel is not an ally of Kazakhstan, and with modern technology, planes or drones will be controlled by a satellite constellation of the USA or Israel and they will fly wherever the "allies" want

          Swamps. In Lugovoi stood Mig-23, Mig-29, turntables were not there. In Karaganda Mig-31. Su-27s received Baikonur's rent by barter.
          And for the purchase of turntables, that's what I think. We won’t be able to quickly get Milevskie cars, except for the previously signed contract for the Mi-171, due to the workload of Mil's production (they are now working in 3 shifts). Kamov production also works to the limit (I know for sure that there is a queue on the Ka-32). Mikheev came to Astana last year, but what did the info talk about. not . There was an option with western cars. It is certainly good that we agreed on joint production (after all, jobs and there may be some technology), but we may encounter service problems (spare parts, by the way, for example, Toyota earns more from selling spare parts than selling cars .), and not prepared infrastructure (west. Turntables require hangar storage - our climate may be too tough for them), and this is very expensive. If only it wouldn’t turn out that at first we will build for a tick, and then we will close it due to unprofitability. So live see.

    I'm about a friend.
    It makes sense to buy European equipment only if all your equipment is with the EU and you operate it with a full range of weapons. It is from a high degree of unification and standardization to go. This is practically one company. The idea that it will combine Russian and EU technology is an expensive and erroneous idea. And Bulgaria is an example of this.
    Moreover, some of the equipment was practically not exploited. A400m for example. So the best thing is to buy a flying technique - the Puma / Cougar series have served enough and deserve trust.
    And do not promote Russian fighters. First, the Russian Federation needs to develop a good modern series of guided weapons of all classes, introduce the ego in mass production, try it in combat conditions, and then there will already be a conversation about the platforms that carry it. And now, Gripenn’s armaments are more advanced than those of RF cars. Uncomfortable like that.

      But I am sure that Kazakhstan is buying this equipment in order to be able to acquire technologies and build its own in the future !!
      As for Russia, you must agree to the aircraft industry and Russia is not far behind in the Air Defense weapons, and in some respects it is far ahead of Western models !!

    Dear Alibek,
    nobody will sell you technologies for avionics and weapons. The technology on some alloy and materials is also still secret. Just assembling components, it’s no problem.
    About own production. This is someone who did the analysis of income / expense. Aircraft manufacturing is a prestigious business, but expensive and not always rented. For your own needs, it is not worth developing production, starting with the shaping of body parts. One press for this in the cost of several dozen cars, if not unique and not sold at all. And then "brick production" - for example, the recently crashed Sukhov's liner, is also unsafe. Different parts of different technologies don't always work well together. An example is the Chinese auto industry. European manufacturers began to produce everything together, one firm, not from a good life. If this is not done, then production, support, exploitation, modernization, etc. are much more expensive. So we are happy with national production, but it can be ruinous for the state. In the 30s, several aircraft factories worked in Bulgaria, they produced military and civil aircraft, and almost all of the above mistakes were made.

      Dear Borislav!
      I’m not an expert in this field! But as far as I know, it is now accepted in the world when a large consignment of weapons is bought that part of the technology is often transferred under a contract !!
      and let's Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan will not compare with Bulgaria, the economy and finance !!
      These countries have great resources for oil and gas and therefore can afford what you put * prestigious business ** - aircraft production!
      It just needs political will and decision, plus a cantrol !!
      That there are risks, I completely agree, but the road will take the road !!
      with respect

          Dear Sergey!
          I am convinced that money is spent in Courchevel, it is better to try to create something !!
          At least this is for many years thousands of jobs !!
          The risk is justified!
