PanARMENIAN.Net - The Russian Air Force will take delivery of at least
thirty Ansat trainer helicopters by 2020, the service's spokesman Col.
Vladimir Drik said on Tuesday, May 22.
"The Sokol aerodrome at the Syzransky Flight Training School will get
six Ansat- U helicopters this year, and over 30 by 2020," Drik said.
The base is already converting to the type and starting instructor
training, he said, RIA Novosti reported.
The Ansat, produced by Kazan Helicopters, is designed as a utility
and training helicopter to replace the ageing Mil Mi-2.
The U-variant is a dedicated trainer with full dual avionics and
controls and seats for six students, who can take turns at flying
with the instructor.
The Ansat-U can also be configured with varying levels of control
difficulty for training, and has an electronic engine management
system to allow pilots to practice coping with engine failures.
