According to the results of HeliRussia-2013

Last week, the sixth international salon of helicopters HeliRussia was held in Moscow. The scale of this exhibition is growing year by year, although this does not appear in all areas. For example, this year 205 companies from 18 countries (including Russian 165) took part in the exhibition - only four firms more than participated in HeliRussua-2012. However, even with such a small increase in the number of participants, the salon continues to grow. For example, this year the event was held in two halls of the Crocus Expo exhibition center, and not in one, as it was before.

Perhaps one of the highlights of the last exhibition is the opening of the first heliport. “Russian Helicopter Systems” together with “Helicopters of Russia” 17 of May opened the country's first mini-airport, designed to receive helicopters. This heliport is located on the roof of the exhibition center and has everything you need to complete the work: it has landing areas, a waiting room, a reception and even a search area. In the opened heliport, there is already its own helicopter taxi service, and in addition it is ready to accept equipment from other airlines.

The exhibition was attended by a rather interesting exhibit - the Ka-226T helicopter of the Ministry of Emergency Situations. This machine is interesting in that it became the first production helicopter of this model. Not so long ago, the factory tests of this helicopter ended, and a few days before the exhibition began, it was handed over to EMERCOM aviators. The Ka-226T helicopter continues the previously laid ideology of the rotary-wing machine with modular equipment. Thus, the sample presented at the exhibition is equipped with a special cabin with medical equipment. At the end of the exhibition, the first serial Ka-226T went to its division of the Ministry of Emergency Situations in Kazan.

It is noteworthy that more than one medical helicopter was demonstrated on HeliRussia-2013. Eurocopter has also shown a machine of this destination. Not far from the Ka-226T in the same exhibition hall stood EC145 with characteristic orange-blue stripes on the sides, also owned by the Russian Emergencies Ministry. This car has been used by Moscow rescuers for several years and during its career managed to deliver to the hospital many victims of road accidents and other incidents.

Another full-size exhibit from European helicopter builders was the new Eurocopter EC130 T2. During modernization, this passenger helicopter received new Turbomecca Ariel 2D engines and a number of design changes. As a result, the EC130 T2 has become one of the quietest helicopters in the world. The advantage in the form of low noise of engines and screws is actively used by the manufacturer for promotional purposes. Eurocopter expects that the quiet EC130 T2 will appeal to those carriers who have to maintain helicopter lines over or near settlements.

Foreign helicopter builders have already understood the prospects of the Russian market and therefore are trying in every way to attract customers from Russia. Thus, the official representative of the American company Bell Helicopter Textron in Russia - the company Jet Transfer - has signed a contract with the Russian Transas. According to this document, the Bell 407 and Bell 429 helicopters supplied to Russia will be equipped with navigation equipment compatible with two satellite systems: GPS and GLONASS. Thus, firms are going to increase the prospects of Bell helicopters on the Russian market. It is worth noting that one of those helicopters that affect the terms of contracts, was present in the exhibition. In the HeliRussia-2013 showroom, Jet Transfer showed the Bell 407 rotary-wing machine.

Italian company AgustaWestland together with Russian Helicopters demonstrated the AW139 helicopter at HeliRussia. This car is not a novelty - ten years have passed since the beginning of its operation. Nevertheless, the specimen shown at the exhibition is of great interest. The fact is that it became the first helicopter of this type, assembled not in Italy, but in Russia, at the HeliVert plant. The assembly of AW139 at the joint venture of Russian Helicopters and AgustaWestland in Tomilino near Moscow began last year and there are already contracts for the production of four dozen helicopters, the first of which recently left the shop. Probably, in the future, the order portfolio of HeliWert will increase. It is also impossible to rule out such a development in which Russian Helicopters and AgustaWestland agree to build other types of helicopters.

While some foreign manufacturers of helicopters are trying to divide the market for new equipment, others rely on helicopters that are already in operation. For example, the Ukrainian company Motor Sich presented its project of SME-2, which in fact represents a deep modernization of the Soviet Mi-2 helicopter. At one time, it was built almost on the heels of a half thousand Mi-2, but now the number of used machines of this model is only a few percent of their total number. The MSB-2 helicopter is expected to be equipped with two new AI-450M engines with an 465 horsepower that will give a significant increase in flight performance. In addition, during the modernization of the Mi-2 received a number of major design changes, as well as new radio-electronic equipment. According to the director general of Motor Sich V. Boguslaev, MSB-2 is a completely new helicopter for which the Mi-2 became only a prototype.

To date, the scale of the international exhibition HeliRussia has become one of the largest such events helicopter focus. Admittedly, at the Moscow salon, multimillion-dollar contracts for the supply of equipment are not signed yet, but it has already become a popular platform for displaying its developments and their promotion to the market. The exposition of last week’s exhibition was not limited to the helicopters described above. Also, a large number of commercial proposals were presented in the form of booklets, leaflets and other promotional materials. Probably in the future at the HeliRussia exhibition there will be even more helicopters, other exhibition samples and advertising. But this assumption can be checked only in a year, at the international salon HeliRussia-2014.

          If there were more such helicopters of the Ministry of Emergencies, such as the ka-226t, mortality on the roads of Russia would decrease by several times.

    It will be somehow more correct.

    "We have something to show. We have something to be proud of all over the world. The well-known brands of MI and KA do not need advertising."
    The last "splashes" of the Soviet past of the OKB "MI" and "KA" ceased to exist, everything was crushed by the maneuvers from the Russian Helicopters, look who was at the show, the colors and logos of the Russian Helicopters. high salaries are BP maneuvers. There was nothing fundamentally new at the exhibition, and there cannot be. The whole trouble is the organization of management companies, in Russia they are created (and select "personnel") to reduce financial flows and are in no way responsible for technical perfection. Officially, the developer of the shown MI and SC are VR. By the way, the TTD on the advertising poster for the current types is clearly overstated. We have already learned to lie.

    Here someone can clearly explain to me: the Mi-38 helicopter is almost 10 years old, if not more

    They wrote: "the serial production of the Mi-38 will begin in 2009", now it is 2013, the series is postponed to 2015 the question is - what x ... is it not produced?
    the answer is no, we have money, we have no mind (quote from a yogurt) or we don’t need it, because 8 and so scatters like pies ...

    Quote: "The Mi-38 helicopter is intended to replace the outdated Mi-8, the resource of the Mi-38 units and systems has been increased by 3-4 times, and the labor intensity has been reduced by 2 times in comparison with the Mi-8 ... and who needs it?
    - The answer to any question in Russia, there is no rollback - there is no topic ... sad, because there are so many developments !!!

    A helicopter is, at its very core, a flying windmill. Not a future. The screw and propeller are a relic of the past. Everyone knows about it, but they are afraid to admit it. And the worst part is that they can not jump out of their stereotypes, and therefore can not solve a practical technical problem.
