One of the most vivid illustrations is the KAVERI Indian aircraft engine. We have been involved in its development, modification and trials. The project is about to be over soon”, – Alexander Mikheev added.
The company intends to use the ARMY 2017 international military-technical forum as a platform for active discussion of further cooperation on joint development of military and dual-purpose equipment with its foreign partners.
