Russian Ansat and Ka-32A11M helicopters, developed by the Russian Helicopters holding, have arrived at the Dubai Airshow 2025 international air show.
The light multi-purpose Ansat, which has undergone a major upgrade, will be the premiere of the exhibition. The machine received domestic VK-650V engines, an updated fuselage, an improved power plant and new on-board systems. Thanks to its compactness and improved characteristics, the helicopter is able to operate effectively even in dense urban environments.
The Ka-32A11M medium fire helicopter is presented with a modernized Russian SP-32 fire extinguishing system. The updated machine is capable of delivering up to 4,000 liters of water and 400 liters of foam to the fire, and digital control improves ergonomics and accuracy when collecting and discharging water. The new version of the Ka-32 demonstrates expanded capabilities for the Ministry of Emergency Situations aviation and fire services.
At Dubai Airshow 2025, Russian companies will demonstrate advanced air defense systems capable of withstanding massive drone attacks. The latest fifth-generation 177S engine for tactical aviation will be presented in the Middle East for the first time.
