Russian Helicopters and Iran’s Industrial Development and Renovation Organization (IDRO) have planned a joint venture to assemble KA-226 and Ansat light civilian helicopters, portal Defense World reported.

The Joint Venture to assemble light civilian helicopters in Iran was announced by Russian Helicopters firm last week.

A memorandum of understanding was signed by Russian Helicopters CEO Andrey Boginsky and the chairman of the Board of Directors of IDRO Mansour Moazami. The document is aimed at promoting cooperation between Russia and Iran as part of the program on upgrading the Iranian helicopter fleet.

Russian Helicopters also intends to explore potential for cooperation with IDRO to develop business in the Middle East.

“We see that the demand for light helicopters is high in Iran, and the country needs them for civilian agencies. said Boginsky.

The joint venture between Russia and Iran would consider assembling light Ka-226 or Ansat helicopters. Currently, negotiations on this issue are ongoing. Iran uses almost the whole range of helicopters of this type: Mi-17, Mi-171, Mi-171E, Mi-8MTV and Mi-17V-5s.

These medium-class helicopters are used for law enforcement and to fight organized crime. Just as in other countries of the region, Russian helicopters in Iran have become known primarily as machines that allow to perform tasks in high temperatures and at high altitudes.

Why are they investing in this when they claim they are producing local designs?
Ka226 can give us plenty of knowledge, and ansat could be just a cover up for supplying some stuff.
Though in the Rouhani's import government, EVERYTHING is possible.

But why?! Iran just claimed a "domestically built" helo. Why buy Russian if you can produce a helo already?!

Iran has unveiled what it purports to be a new domestically developed and manufactured helicopter, national media announced on 7 March.

The Saba-248, which was reportedly designed and built by Iran's Helicopter Renovation and Logistics Company (PANHA) in partnership with the Defence Ministry's Aviation Industries Organization, was revealed during a ceremony that was attended by top military officials.
