In particular, US pilots have shown great interest in the vehicle, Maxim Andrianov, head of the international marketing department of Russian Helicopters (part of Rostec) told Sputnik.
"The Russian industry is the only one that still produces coaxial helicopters, and at the exhibition the helicopter is exclusive. That is why we have already had visitors from various countries: the US, UK, Australia, Mozambique – just now guests have come up, looked, were interested in the helicopter live," Andrianov stated, referring to the Ka-32A11M.
American pilots of the F-35 fighter jet have surprised the official with their enthusiasm about the Russian
helicopter.
"Pilots of the F-35 aircraft came [...] The guys were interested in the helicopters, interested in the flight characteristics. Surprisingly, they were even able to name some countries in which this helicopter flies. They were pilots too, and they mostly asked questions: how easy the coaxial scheme is to control in the heat and in the high mountains how the helicopter behaves," he added.
In addition, Russian Helicopters emphasized that the international premiere of the Ka-32A11M took place at the Dubai Airshow earlier on Monday.
The Americans also examined the Russian Ka-52 reconnaissance and attack helicopter of the new generation, Sputnik's correspondent reported.
From November 13 to 17, United Arab Stated is hosting the Dubai Airshow, a biennial air show that showcases the latest aircraft models of exhibiting
companies.
