Algo más sobre la adquisición de Kamov por parte del Ministerio:
MoD to acquire 6 Ka-226′s in 2011
The Russian Defense Ministry will buy light multi-role helicopters Kamov Ka-226, a ministry representative told Interfax-AVN on Thursday.
“The plan of state procurements for 2011 provides the delivery of six light Ka-226 to the Defense Ministry,” he said.
The helicopters will have Rolls-Royce engines. “In the future similar models will be powered with French Arrius-2G engines,” the source said.
“The Kumertau aviation plant, a component of the Russian Helicopters Holding, will build and deliver the Ka-226 helicopters,” he said.
“Negotiations on basing Ka-226 on board patrol ships of the Federal Border Service are in progress,” he said.
As for possibly stationing the Ka-226 helicopters that the Russian Defense Ministry is buying on the Mistral helicopter ships, no decision has been made so far, the source said.
The maximal takeoff weight of Ka-226 is 3,400 kilograms.
