“WE HAVE A LONG AND FRUITFUL HISTORY OF MILITARY-TECHNICAL
COOPERATION WITH THE REPUBLIC OF EGYPT, DATING BACK TO THE SOVIET
UNION. I CANNOT SPEAK FOR THE WHOLE DEFENSEINDUSTRIAL COMPLEX, BUT
WE HIGHLY APPRECIATE OUR EGYPTIAN PARTNERS’ TRUST AND INTEREST. “RUSSIAN HELICOPTERS” HOLDING IS ALWAYS READY FOR DIALOGUE AND WILLING TO OFFER ANY HELICOPTERS, NOT ONLY MILITARY ROTORCRAFT BUT ALSO CIVIL, INCLUDING OUR NEWEST MODELS, SUCH AS MI-38, KA-226T, ANSAT AURUS AND SO ON,”

The Mi-8/17 family of helicopters can be equipped with the most advanced electronics, optoelectronic stations, including pilot’s cockpit and cargo cabin armor protection. Mi-8/17 can also carry the most diverse set of weapons – guided anti-tank and air-to-air missiles, unguided rockets, cannon containers, bombs and so on. “Mi-8 and its latest modifications have no equal in terms of “reliability-load-carrying-capacity-capabilities performance combination and its ability to work in hot climates and highlands” criteria,” the official said, adding, “assembly of Mi-8AMT helicopters from assembly kits manufactured
