In addition to the special exporter the National Aviation Service Company, United Aircraft Corporation and United Engine Corporation, which are subsidiaries to Rostec State Corporation, will showcase their products at the stands as part of the single Russian exhibit.
“ROSOBORONEXPORT accepted with a great gratitude the invitation of the Egyptian side to participate in the Egypt International Airshow. Our presence here will serve to strengthen military-technical cooperation between Russia and Egypt, as well as to further develop relations with countries in Africa and the Middle East, whose combined share in the company’s order portfolio exceeds 50 percent. I am sure that the Airshow has a great future, and we are ready to become its regular exhibitor,” said Director General of ROSOBORONEXPORT Alexander Mikheev. “At the Airshow we will demonstrate the latest Russian operational aircraft, air defence and unmanned aircraft systems that were successfully tested under real combat conditions”.
In the outdoor display area ROSOBORONEXPORT is exhibiting the Ka-52 scout/attack helicopter equipped with the Item 305E light multipurpose guided missile. This helicopter, recognized by some as the best in its world market segment, is the backbone of battle groups of the Russian army air force and is successfully used in combat operations, including with the Item 305E missile, to effectively destroy a variety of targets.
Exhibitors and guests of the airshow will also be able to get acquainted with the Kh-69, a new multifunctional air-launched stealth precision-guided cruise missile, proposed to be included in the armament system of the fifth-generation Sukhoi Su-57E fighter, which is also on display at ROSOBORONEXPORT’s stand.
