Certification of the import-substituted "Ansat" helicopter is expected in 2026. To date, the helicopter has performed 19 flights as part of the certification, said Anton Alikhanov, Head of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia.
According to him, bench certification tests have also been completed for nine programs.
The machine is planned to be certified in 2026. 52 out of 53 certification test programs for the import-substituted "Ansat" have been agreed with Rosaviatsia and the Aviation Register of Russia.
As a reminder, the "Ansat" with the Russian VK-650V enginefirst took to the air on September 2, 2025. Sergey Chemezov, Head of Rostec, noted that after import substitution, the rotorcraft became more efficient.
