Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant, The Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant shipped the final lot of Mi-171SH helicopters to the Czech Republic. The helicopters are supplied under the contract signed by Rosoboronexport with the Ministry of Defense of the Czech Republic.
Twenty six helicopters have been supplied to the Czech Republic to settle the Russian debt, including sixteen Mi-171SH helicopters produced by the Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant and ten Mi-35 helicopters produced by Rostvertol. The contract total value is 184 million USD.
Nowadays the Ula-Ude Aviation Plant has certain prospects in promotion of its helicopters to the East-European countries, namely, to Slovakia that earlier procured several Mi-17 police-version helicopters.
The air vehicles produced in Ulan-Ude are awarded the type certificate and thus can be operated without any limitations.
