PDF, 177.9 Kb Ka-32 service and maintenance centre opens in the Republic of Korea 28 January 2013, Moscow The Korea Forest Service has formally opened a new service and maintenance centre for Ka-32 helicopters manufactured by Russian Helicopters, a subsidiary of Oboronprom, part of State Corporation Rostec. Representatives of Russian Helicopters took part in the opening ceremony for the centre, which will promote the use of Ka-32 helicopters in the Republic of Korea and other countries in the Asia- Pacific region and reduce waiting times for maintenance and repair of these helicopters. “The opening of the new service centre will first of all have a positive effect on prospects for promoting Russian-built Kamov-brand helicopters in East Asia,” said Russian Helicopters CEO Alexander Mikheev. “This is a key region for our industry, and we want to be able to offer helicopter operators high-quality maintenance services through the whole life-cycle of our helicopters.” The multi-role Ka-32 has been supplied to South Korea since 1993. The Korea Forest Service uses the helicopter for monitoring forests and for fire-fighting, the country’s Air Force flies it for search-and-rescue missions, while the Coast Guard deploys helicopters in patrolling its coastal waters. The Ka-32 is also used in the commercial sector for carrying cargo, construction work and other missions. In total 61 Ka-32 helicopters are operational in South Korea, and have racked up more than 100,000 flight hours between them. The Ka-32 service and maintenance centre is located in a new multi-purpose complex that also houses the headquarters of the Korea Forest Service. The centre can service all types of Ka-32 helicopters in use in the region. Previously these functions were outsourced to Korean company LGI, one of Russian Helicopters’ key partners in the region. The LGI service centre will continue to operate. The Korea Forest Service is currently considering expanding its fleet of Ka-32 helicopters by purchasing the latest model in the series, the Ka-32A11BC – a unique coaxial helicopter that currently operates in more than 30 countries around the world including in EU states, Republic of Korea, China, Japan, Canada and Russia. The Ka-32A11BC can be deployed for special search- and-rescue and high-rise construction operations, as well as highly complex fire-fighting missions, cargo transportation inside the cabin or on an external sling, in logging operations, to evacuate sick and wounded people, and for routine patrolling and monitoring.

  • Rotorcraft (2011)
    Rotorcraft Overview The rotorcraft industry produces aircraft, powered by either turboshaft or reciprocating engines, capable of performing vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) operations. The rotorcraft sector includes helicopters, gyrocopters, and tiltrotor aircraft. Helicopters, which employ a horizontal rotor for both lift and propulsion, are the mainstay of the industry. Gyrocopters are produced in much smaller quantities, primarily for use in recreational flying. Tiltrotor aircraft, such as the V-22 Osprey1, can take off vertically and then fly horizontally as a fixed-wing aircraft. Rotorcraft are manufactured in most industrialized countries, based on indigenous design or in collaboration with, or under license from, other manufacturers. Manufacturers in the United States of civilian helicopters include American Eurocopter, Bell, Enstrom, Kaman, MD Helicopters, Robinson, Schweizer (now a subsidiary of Sikorsky), and Sikorsky. Bell moved its civilian helicopter production to Canada, with the last U.S. product completed in 1993.2 American Eurocopter—a subsidiary of the European manufacturer and subsidiary of EADS NV—has manufacturing and assembly facilities in Grand Prairie, Texas and Columbus, Missouri. European producers include AgustaWestland, Eurocopter, NHIndustries, and PZL Swidnik. Russian manufacturers including Mil Moscow, Kamov and Kazan helicopters, as well as a number of other rotorcraft related companies, have been consolidated under the Russian government majority-owned OAO OPK Oboronprom.3 (See this report’s Russia

Forskningsinstituten sysslar i huvudsak med att utveckla forskningsidéer för militär tillämpning. Konstruktionsbyråerna utvecklar och testar prototyper. Vetenskapliga produktionsassociationer kombinerar FoU- verksamhet med egen tillverkningskapacitet. Sammantaget består försvars- industrins FoU-komponent av nästan 600 organisationer. Av dessa är cirka 300 forskningsinstitut, knappt 130 konstruktionsbyråer och ungefär 170 vetenskapliga produktionsassociationer. Geografiskt är FoU-organisationerna koncentrerade till större städer. I och omkring Moskva finns nästan hälften av alla FoU-institut, medan St. Petersburg har en femtedel av instituten. Den militära FoU-strukturen kan indelas i sju huvud- sakliga branscher: flyg, rymdteknologi, skeppsbyggnad, konventionella vapen, radioelektronik och kommunikationssystem, ammunition och speciella kemikalier samt kärnteknik.

  • Military Helicopters
    297 Rotorcraft engineering is an area that sometimes doesn't get an awful lot of respect. I can substantiate that by quoting Wilbur Wright. The punch line is: "... The helicopter is much easier to design than the airplane but is worthless when done." The quote is from the Dayton Herald (Ohio) and was given to my friend Ralph Alex, then the Sikorsky XR4 project engineer, on the occasion of the delivery of the Army's second helicopter to Wright Field in May 1942. (The first was the De Bothezat machine, delivered in 1922.) Several times over several days, Ralph Alex and Igor Sikorsky offered Orville Wright a ride in the Sikorsky helicopter. Wright had politely refused each offer. Finally, Orville explained that he could not accept because he did not believe the machine was practical and, by way of justification, offered a copy of an article containing the previous quote by his brother Wilbur. It should be noted that the XR-4 helicopter, rolled from the factory on December 7, 1941, was the prototype for 129 helicopters delivered to the U. S. Army by September 7, 1944. An additional 488 helicopters (R-5s and R-6s) were built before the end of WW II. (References are given for additional reading on the subject area. Ralph P. Alex, "How Are You Fixed for Blades?
