LE BOURGET, June 17 (RIA Novosti) A Russian state high-tech corporation will roll out more than 100 new military and civilian developments at the Paris Air Show, a Russian Technologies (Rostec) top executive said on Monday.
These include the advanced Ka-52 Alligator attack helicopter and a modernized Mi-171A2 civil helicopter, as well as military and civilian avionics, Rostec deputy head Vladimir Artyakov told RIA Novosti at the show, which opened Monday and runs through Sunday at Le Bourget Airport in France.
The Ka-52 is due to be certified in 2014 and go into production from 2015, he said.
Radioelectronic Technologies holding, part of Rostec, said it would use the air show to unveil its multirole Sukhoi Su-35S fighter equipped with the latest SINS-SP2 strapdown inertial navigation system.
The system, which determines the location of an aircraft in the absence of satellite navigation and communication links with ground-based services, will be used in the fifth-generation T-50 fighter as part of the PAK-FA (future tactical fighter aircraft) program.
Artyakov also said Monday that Russian aircraft engine makers Salyut and Saturn have completed second-stage development of a fifth-generation aircraft engine, though he offered no indication of when the development of the new engine would be finalized. T-50 aircraft are currently flying with what is known as a 4++ generation engine.
T-50 fighter jets are due to enter service with the countrys armed forces in 2016, and not 2015 as was previously announced, President Vladimir Putin said at a live Q&A session with the Russian public in April.
The T-50 made its first flight in January 2010 and was presented to the public at the Moscow Air Show in 2011. The T-50, which will be the core of Russia's future fighter fleet, features elements of stealth technology, super-maneuverability, super-cruise capability (supersonic flight without use of afterburner), and an advanced avionics suite including an X-band active phased-array radar.
