Russia to 'Make in India' 400 Helicopters a Year

All India | Reuters | Updated: December 11, 2014 19:58 IST

Ka-226T is a light multi-role helicopter which can be used for search-and-rescue operations in mountainous areas

Russia and India have agreed to assemble 400 twin-engined helicopters a year in India, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin said after summit talks between President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Rogozin said the deal related to the Ka-226T, a light multi-role helicopter built by Russian Helicopters that can be used for search-and-rescue operations in mountainous areas.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi told President Vladimir Putin on Thursday that Russia will remain India's top defence supplier, even though New Delhi's options had improved since the end of the Cold War.

PM Modi spoke after a one-day summit that sought to revive a relationship that peaked in the Soviet era, while the two sides signed billions of dollars in deals covering nuclear power, oil and defence cooperation.

In the most significant ones, Russia's state-owned Rosatom will build 12 nuclear reactors in India, energy major Rosneft inked a 10-year crude supply deal with India's Essar Oil and Russia promised to build advanced helicopters in India.

"Even if India's options have increased, Russia remains our most important defence partner," PM Modi told reporters after the first formal summit between the leaders since he won elections by a landslide in May. (Russia remains our top defence partner, says PM Modi)

Mr Putin's visit comes as the Kremlin grapples with a sliding oil price and weak economy that have deepened the impact of Western sanctions over its annexation of Crimea last spring and support for an uprising in eastern Ukraine.

The tension over Ukraine intruded on the choreographed visit when it emerged that the Russian-backed leader of Crimea had travelled as part of Mr Putin's delegation for what were billed as unofficial talks to enhance trade.

"We highly appreciate the friendship, trust and mutual understanding with Indian partners," said President Putin who touched on bilateral issues chiefly in his statement to journalists. (Read full text of the joint statement)

Kamov Ka-226T


General Information
The Ka-226T is a powerful, light multirole helicopter that, in addition to meeting high safety standards, boasts incredibly precise hovering ability, excellent manoeuvrability and is very easy to fly. Improved performance characteristics of the Ka-226T include eco-friendly features, efficiency, modern avionics and additional flight safety solutions – making this one of the best models in its class.

• The Ka-226T is powered by 580 h.p. FADEC-equipped Arrius 2G1 engines by Turbomeca which enables the helicopter to land or take-off safely if one engine fails.
• The coaxial main rotor system and absence of a tail rotor not only makes it safer on the ground and in the air, but also makes it possible to use the Ka-226T in spaces with scant room for manoeuver, as the fuselage does not extend beyond the area swept by the rotors.
• The Ka-226 can operate day and night, in regular and adverse weather conditions, over land or expanses of water, and also in high winds.
• It is operation in temperatures ranging from -50°С до +50°С with a relative humidity of 100%, and does not need to be kept in a hangar.

The Ka-226T helicopter boasts a modular design and can be delivered in a variety of modifications.

• The passenger model can comfortably set up to seven people.
• The transport model can carry one tonne within the fuselage or on an external sling and cargo platform can be installed to carry oversize goods.
• The Ka-226T has two kinds of medical uses – medevac and intensive care. Medevac helicopters are equipped with stretchers to carry the injured, oxygen cylinders, and the requisite medical equipment. There are fold-away seats for medical staff. When used to provide intensive-care treatment, the Ka-226T can accommodate one patient and two medical staff.
• As a police vehicle, the Ka-226T can transport up to six people and is excellently suited to law enforcement activities such as: ensuring law and order, patrolling areas, identifying and tracking criminals, and managing the traffic police.
• The search-and-rescue version of the Ka-226 can operate in difficult climates and in a range of different environments, including mountainous areas. High hover precision makes it possible to get injured people on board safely.

India had previously launched a tender for the purchase of utility helicopters where Russian Ka-226 competed with Eurocopter. But according M.Rogozine, unique performance of Ka-226 New Delhi have to give up the bidding and opt for the production of Ka-226 helicopters on its territory.

nice, now that's what you call a strategic partnership.. nuclear, military, oil and gas, pharma, medical/health, energy, crude, software, glonass.. nothing specific about the Kamov deal there though, but that will come shortly I hope.

now let's see what the Americans have on offer when Obama comes next month.

 

[Abingdonboy]

why has this thread kept going for so long

Every one agree that agreement is for License production of Ka226T LUH, their is no mention of Mi28

Ka-226 and MAYBE M-17 V5, the latter makes some sense as the IAF and CAPFs are likely to place large orders for this type in the future. The Ka-226 is a strange one, I doubt it will have much demand in India (I don't see it winning the IAF/IA LUH order either) so this is probably going to be exported using India as a hub.

 

[Abingdonboy]

400 in a year. not possible I guess. @sancho do you think its a realistic target?

More like crappy jounalism I guess.

Utter nonsense, there isn't a market anywhere in the world for 400 new helos of this type a year.

Its better they opt for M-17 V5 production here in India.. They have much market here in India itself!!

Russia and India have agreed to assemble 400 twin-engined helicopters a year in India,

is it just assembling or manufacturing also ?

Russian ignition for Make in India Campaign.

 

[PARIKRAMA]

1. since no questions are allowed not sure about manufacturing or assembling from kits
2. 400 a year or overall 400 is again the question mark. but i do understand that state run PSUs like ONGC had intended to procure some LUH for its Deep Sea Oil Wells in Bombay high as well as for other onshore/offshore purposes. so demand will be there. Not sure about 400 a year number..

Awaiting clarification on these 2 points. Reuters also quote the same as mentioned in pt 1 and 2. Will check for more sources.

BTW main post updated with pics and tech specification for Ka 226T
