"Based on this power plant, it is planned to develop an engine for high - speed small vessels," the report said on Monday.

According to the press service, the layout of the GSU includes a gas turbine engine, electric motors, power electronics units, an electric generator and a battery pack.

The message quotes the words of the executive director of JSC "UEC-Klimov", Alexander Vatagin, who noted that naval aviation performs a wide range of tasks.

"To perform these functions, high fuel efficiency, increased power-to-weight ratio of aircraft and flight safety, the ability to quickly boost power are relevant. All these advantages can be provided by the use of GSU, " Vatagin said.

"The relevance of the use of GSU as part of naval aviation is also noted by representatives of the Russian Navy. The military expects fuel efficiency from the GSU, a large energy potential for powering radar systems, radio intelligence stations, and a radio-hydroacoustic system, " the report says.

"JSC UEC-Klimov, as the lead developer, began work on a project to create a GSU demonstrator for aircraft in August 2020. The first HSU demonstrator is planned to be assembled and tested with a power output of 150 kW in 2022. In 2023, a 500 kW demonstrator will be created on the basis of the VK-650V engine," the press service informs.

It is reported that the potential objects of application of GSU of this power class are light multi-purpose helicopters, promising unmanned (optionally manned) aircraft with a take-off weight of 2-8 tons, aircraft of local air lines, air taxis, business aviation, vertical take-off and landing aircraft.
