  • The Mil Mi-26T2 is a much modernised version of the Mi-26T Halo and has been developed to participate in the Indian Defence Ministry's tender for 15 heavy-lift helicopters. It features a two-man flight deck with a glass cockpit, as well as a dual NAVSTAR/GLONASS navigation system that will enable it to operate all over the world. A searchlight with infrared illuminator facilitates day and night operations. It is also expected that the new version will be powered by a pair of upgraded D-136-2 engines under development by Ivchenko-Progress and Motor Sich, giving the helicopter an increased maximum take-off power of 11,650shp. Mi-26T 901 Black made its maiden flight in February 2011 at the Rostov-on-Don helicopter plant. It appeared in the MAKS 2011 flying programme, and is seen here with a preproduction Mil Mi-28N Havoc night attack helicopter.

  • The Mikoyan MiG-31BM is an extensively upgraded version of the MiG-31B Foxhound heavy interceptor. The Russian Air Force received its first two modified aircraft from the Sokol Aircraft Factory in Nizhniy Novgorod during the spring of 2008. MiG-31BM 92 Blue is one of 12 MiG-31BS/BM variants operated by the Air Group at Savasleyka AB, which is subordinate to the Lipetsk Training Centre - the latter's badge appears on the port air intake. New national markings with a red, white and blue outlined red star, Russian Air Force titles and an RF-serial number are also worn. The MiG-31BM's avionics software allows it to guide missiles launched by other aircraft. The upgraded RP-31 Zaslon-M Flash Dance phased array radar can track up to 24 targets and simultaneously engage up to six, including low-flying stealthy cruise missiles.

  • The Russian Ministry of Defence placed its first order for 67 Mil Mi-28N Havoc night capable attack helicopters in 2005 to replace ageing Mil Mi-24 Hinds. Between 2005 and 2008, seven preproduction (32 to 38 Yellow) and four production-series Mi-28Ns (41 to 44 Yellow) were delivered by the Rostvertol Helicopter Plant at Rostov-on-Don to the 344th Combat Training and Aircrew Conversion Centre in Torzhok. At least 27 production aircraft are currently in service with frontline units in Budyonnovsk (01 to 12 Blue and 14 to 17 Blue) and Korenovsk (01 to 11 White). Deliveries will continue in 2011 and 2012 at an annual rate of around 15 units. The additional 30 helicopters, ordered in the autumn of 2010, will be delivered in 2013-2014. The Mi-28NE export version will be available from 2012 onwards. Two preproduction Havocs were present at MAKS - Mi-28N 35 Yellow in the flying programme and Mi-28NE 38 Yellow in export configuration in the static.

  • In addition to a flying prototype in civil configuration, Russian Helicopters displayed a camouflaged non-flying prototype of the light multipurpose piston-engine Mil Mi-34S1 Hermit in order to persuade the military to acquire the helicopter for basic flying training, passenger and light cargo transportation, observation and monitoring roles. The Mi-34S1 made its first flight shortly before MAKS 2011. Launch customer Utair placed an order for ten helicopters at Heli Russia 2011.

  • In 2009 and 2010, the Russian Ministry of Defence placed two orders worth RUR 980 million for a total of ten Kazan Ansat-Us to replace the ageing Mil Mi-2 Hoplite basic flying training helicopter. The first three were delivered to the 344th Combat Training and Aircrew Conversion Centre at Torzhok in the summer of 2010, the remaining seven to the Military Training and Research Centre in Syzran later that year. The Ansat-U has a digital fly-by-wire control system. It is equipped with a wheeled undercarriage instead of skids used on commercial version allowing pilots to train helicopter taxiing procedures. Deliveries to Syzran continue.

  • Sukhoi Su-34 Fullback tactical bomber 48 White outline is the last of five preproduction aircraft (44 to 48 White outline) that were preceded by three flying (41 to 43 Blue) and one static prototype. The Novosibirsk Aircraft Production Association (NAPO) built five production Fullbacks (01 to 05 Red) during 2006-2009, which were used for evaluation and state acceptance trials at Lipetsk AB. The first four production aircraft (06 to 09 Red) of an order for 32 signed in 2008 were delivered to the 4th State Air Personnel Training and Aircraft Evaluation Centre in Lipetsk on December 28, 2010. Deliveries are scheduled to be completed in 2013. At MAKS 2011 Colonel-General Alexander Nikolayevich Zelin, Chief-of-Staff of the Russian Air Force, declared that his service has a requirement for 124 of the type.

  • Fifty years after its first flight in 1961, the Mil Mi-8/Mi-17 Hip is still one of the most successful helicopters in production with more than 11,000 delivered worldwide. The Russian Air Force received a first batch of ten Mi-8AMTSh Hip-H transport/assault helicopters, built by the Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant (UUAP), in December 2010. A second batch was handed over in June 2011. The Hip-H can carry up to 36 fully equipped troops, 12 wounded on stretchers or four tons of cargo, internally or externally. For rapid evacuation of troops, the cabin has a standard size sliding door on the port side and a double-sized one on the starboard side. The former door has an electric hoist that can lift up to 150kg (330lb) in the SAR/CSAR role. Cargo or vehicles can be loaded easily through a full-width ramp in the back. Bombs, rockets, missiles and gun pods can be carried on triple pylons mounted on outriggers on both sides of the cabin. Night operations are facilitated by the installation of a 1,600 watt searchlight under the nose. The export version of the Mi-8AMTSh is designated Mi-171Sh and the latest variant produced by Kazan Helicopters is the Mi-8MTV-5 (with an export designation Mi-17V-5). Mi-8MTV-5 73 Yellow assigned to the Torzhok training centre was present at MAKS.
