Signs MOU To Develop, Certify Turboshaft Variant

Pratt & Whitney Canada and Helicopters of Russia signed a memorandum of understanding Friday to produce the PW127TS engine for Russia's next-generation, twin-engine medium helicopter MI-38.

Helicopters of Russia, together with UMPO, will invest in the development and localization of the PW127TS, which will be assembled under license by UMPO for the Russian MI-38. The MI-38 will be manufactured by Kazan Helicopters.

"This breakthrough project in Russia is exciting for us, in that we combine the expertise of world-class aerospace companies to build this new helicopter engine," said Joseph Torchetti, vice president, International Business Development, P&WC.

Added Andrey Shibitov, General Director of Helicopters of Russia, "We are very pleased to be entering into this innovative arrangement with Pratt & Whitney Canada, which brings together the outstanding track record and dependability of its engines with the growing capabilities of Russia's aerospace sector."
