This year our country will get six Mi-8 MTV-5 military transport helicopters produced by Russian Helicopters, the factory in Kazan being a structural unit of it.
“Russian Helicopters is a leading player in the global helicopter industry, the sole Russian rotorcraft designer and manufacturer and one of the few companies worldwide with the capability to design, manufacture, service and test modern civilian and military helicopters. Russian Helicopters is part of State Corporation Rostec,” the company’s website says.
