On Wednesday, July 14, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu visited Rosvertol, one of the largest performers of the state defense order in Russia.

The managing director of the company, Pyotr Motrenko, reported to Shoigu that the company fully fulfills contracts both for the production of new helicopters, and for the regulation and extension of the service life of previously released machines.

Serial combat helicopters Mi-28N "Night Hunter" and its export version of the Mi-28NE are assembled at Rostvertol. The Mi-35M fire support helicopter is being made here. Production of the Mi-24P, the Mi-26T heavy transport helicopter and its upgraded version of the Mi-26T2 with a reduced number of crew members from five to two, a "glass" cabin, modern avionics and the possibility of night use continues.

Having checked the progress of the state defense order and examined the new and modernized products of Rosvertol, Shoigu noted: "We have big plans, and we will continue to order helicopters at a rate of 15 cars per year. In the future, we will consistently and regularly order new cars."

He explained the previously small suspension of orders by adjusting the State Weapons Program. And the minister also admitted that the military department needs not only new helicopters, but also high-quality repairs and modernization of the machines in operation.
