Russian Helicopters showcase new combat training helicopter Mi-28UB at MAKS 2013

摘要

Russian Helicopters showcased a new combat training helicopter Mi-28UB at the International Aviation and Space Salon (MAKS 2013), based on the Mi-28NE Night Hunter combat helicopter manufactured by Rostvertol. Mi-28UB is a special helicopter with a dual control system that can be used in Mi-28NE pilot training, while at the same time retaining all the functionality of an attack helicopter. On 9 August the Mi-28UB performed its maiden demonstration flight at the flight test centre of Rostvertol, which is part of Russian Helicopters. It is worth noting that the Mi-28NE, Mi-26 (T) and Mi-35M helicopters are also manufactured at this plant. This is the first time that this helicopter model is presented to the public: the Mi-28UB will be located on a static stand of Russian Helicopters.
