Russian Helicopters Military Aircraft Participate in Victory Parade on Red Square and Other Cities Across the Country
Mi-26, Mi-28N Night Hunter, Mi-35M, Ka-52 Alligator and Mi-8/17 military helicopters built by Russian Helicopters (part of State Corporation Rostec) took part in the flight programmes of today’s parade ceremonies on Moscow’s Red Square and in towns and cities across Russia to mark the 70th anniversary of the end of the Russian Great Patriotic War in the Second World War.
About 150 aircraft were involved in the victory parade on Red Square. The helicopter line-up included crews from the legendary “Berkuty” (Golden Eagles) display team flying Mi-28N Night Helicopters.
The crew of the helicopters taking part in the parade comprised top-class professionals with the outstanding flying abilities needed to carry off such flights. The victory parade programme was thoroughly rehearsed, and the performance on May 9 was delivered to great acclaim from spectators drawn from all across Russia and from other countries.
Military helicopters supplied to the Russian Defence Ministry undergo regular maintenance by Russian Helicopters specialists. All helicopters involved in the flight programme underwent additional servicing ahead of the victory parade.
The Defence Ministry is the biggest customer of the Russian helicopter industry. Today Rostvertol, Progress Arsenyev Aviation Company, Kumertau Aviation Production Enterprise, Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant and Kazan Helicopters – all of which are Russian Helicopters companies – supply a wide range of military helicopters to the ministry in strict compliance with approved delivery schedules. The aircraft supplied include the Mi-28N Night Hunter combat helicopter, including in dual-control version; the reconnaissance and combat Ka-52 Alligator; Mi-35M military transport; Mi-8AMTSh and Mi-8MTV-5 medium transports; heavy Mi-26; and light Ka-226. All of these models are offered for export to Russia’s military-technical cooperation partners.
