Installation of Doppler velocity and drift angle gauge
Installation of Doppler velocity and drift angle

gauge СМА-2012C Brief description:
1. Measurement of three mutually perpendicular components of the
vector of the aircraft's ground speed, calculation of the drift angle;
2. Formation and mapping of information on the display
3. Output of information to the interfaced systems
СМА-2012C

Additional Equipment
Brief description:
Installation of wire strike protection system Helicopter wire strike protection system - contains cutters with cutting
elements. The surfaces of the cutting edge are located in the plane of the
cutting element and are made at an angle of 70-90 ° and are mounted
with the possibility of slipping the side surfaces of the cutting edges
relative to each other, which reduces the dynamic impact on the fuselage
of the helicopter in collision with the wires.

Prospective directions of
Mi-8/17 type helicopters upgrade
Compact LED searchlight
Brief description:
Installation of compact LED searchlight
The searchlight is designed for installation on a helicopter as a light
source. A low-power generator or batteries is used for power supply.
Advantages:
• change in the radiation angle and spectral range: visible, IR or UV;
• a smooth change in the brightness of the searchlight, as well as the
provision of illumination only in the required wavelength range, such as
white (5000K), orange antifog, UV for search and rescue, IR for hidden
illumination and work with night vision devices;
• stroboscopic mode for conducting special operations and signaling.

Glass cockpit installation
Brief description:
IBKV-17 glass cockpit installation
IBKV-17 glass cockpit avionics set is designed to
• provide crew with the necessary piloting and navigation information;
• significantly reduce workload of the flight crew;
• centralize control of all on-board navigation systems, radio aids,
approach and landing systems;
• centralize input and registration of relevant information;
• expand the functionality of the helicopter.
IBKV-17

Night Vision Goggles Adaptation
Adaptation of the helicopter for use of Night Vision Brief description:

Goggles (NVG) Adaptation of the cabin includes upgrade of light equipment of helicopter
cabin (instruments and displays illumination, cabin lighting, dashboard
lighting etc.); installation of light filters on display screens, devices with
internal lights; putting the special cover on the dashboards, cabin and
cabin floor elements.

Engine change
Brief description:
