In front of the pavilion "A", at the static display was deployed an attack helicopter Mi-28NE, as well as transport-combat Mi-35M and Mi-35P. These aircraft are loaded with a wide range of guided and unguided missiles, and the most up-to-date avionics allow them to carry out missions at any time of the day or night.
Also, in the "Patriot" park was presented an upgraded military transport helicopter Mi-171Sh. It is characterized by increased protection of the crew and troops through the use of kevlar armor plates. The helicopter also have an expanded armament to effectively support the paratroopers from the air.
Another aircraft presented at the static display was the light helicopter Ka-226T in a new design, adapted to meet the high mountain requirements. The helicopter's fuselage is made with the use of modern lightweight materials, the control and the electrical helicopter systems have been modernized, an impact-resistant crashproof fuel system has been installed, which meets the increased safety requirements. At the same time, the volume of fuel tanks has been increased because of centralized refueling support. The helicopter is also equipped with a new complex of pilot navigation and radio communication equipment.
Besides, for the first time, an unmanned aircraft BAS-200 was presented at the "Army" forum and placed in the aviation exposition area at "Kubinka" airfield. The maximum take-off weight of the device is 200 kilograms. It can reach speed up to 160 km/h and is capable of transporting commercial load up to 50 kilograms. The BAS-200 is capable of flying up to 4 hours at altitudes of up to 3,900 meters. There also presents a ground control complex to provide communication with the drone at a range of up to 100 kilometers. The device is 3.9 meters long and 1.2 meters high. The BAS-200 project is being developed by the National Helicopter Center "Mil & Kamov" of "Russian Helicopters" Holding Company.
As part of the holding's exposition at the Kubinka airfield, the world's largest serial helicopter, the modernized Mi-26T2B, as well as transport-paratroopers Mi-38T and civil Ansat Aurus helicopter, was alsopresented.
At the demo center of Rostec State Corporation, the holding presented the latest onboard equipment for Russian helicopters. In particular, guests and participants were able to view the perspective helicopter ergonomic cabin, as well as Ansat helicopter main power elements technical condition control system.
Russian Helicopters presented cockpit of future helicopters
During the Army-2021 International Military-Technical Forum, Russian Helicopters presented a cockpit layout with modern requirements for ergonomics and functionality featuring a glass cockpit and a pilot's decision-predicting system.
Research work on the creation of a mock-up of an ergonomic cockpit is aimed at improving flight safety, as well as the reliability and efficiency of helicopter crews and maintaining full situational awareness.
In cooperation with leading research centers and domestic avionics manufacturers, we set ourselves the task of finding optimal technical solutions that would allow us to build new principles of interaction between a pilot and a helicopter, reduce the workload on the crew and the influence of the human factor, and significantly improve flight safety. radio-electronic equipment will seriously change the appearance of modern helicopters in the near future, and I am sure that this research work will allow us to take the lead in these changes", said Andrey Boginsky, General Director of the Russian Helicopters holding.
In addition, the promising cockpit will allow studying the concept of optimal automation, which implies the introduction of a "virtual pilot" and a rational distribution of functions between him and the crew.
