The Russian aerospace industry made a strong showing at the Farnborough airshow last week, with 55 entities represented. The Russian presence included a Yak-130 combat trainer, an Aeroflot SSJ100 jetliner, and SaM146 and PD14 turbofan engines. The Ka-62 helicopter–a civil version of the military multirole Ka-62–made its international debut in the form of a full-scale mockup. Kamov said for the first time that the Ka-60 has military orders and has been put into production.
