The latest Russian helicopter was called a failed project

The latest Russian helicopter ran into serious problems.

Despite the fact that work on the Mi-38 helicopter began back in the 80 of the last century, to achieve any success in this direction, while the helicopter with almost 40-year history has already begun to become obsolete and its further effective use raises a lot of questions from experts.

It is noteworthy that in addition to the lack of interest in these rotary-wing machines, there are significant problems with the power plants used in them.

“During the International Aviation and Space Salon, Russian Helicopters Holding and VEB.RF signed an agreement to finance a project to lettered operate the latest civilian Mi-38 helicopter. So far, even Russia itself is not ready to abandon the budget "eight." As for other countries, for now the Mi-38 is not ready for full-fledged competition for the world market ”, - reports the publication "Reporter".

Earlier it was reported that American aircraft engines mounted on Mi-38 helicopters showed greater efficiency than Russian ones.
