"The second half of the year," Boginsky said in reply to a question about when the helicopter deliveries could begin.

As was reported earlier, Russia agreed with Egypt on the delivery of 46 Ka-52 Alligator reconnaissance/attack helicopters to Cairo. The first export deliveries of these helicopters were expected to start in 2017
