Although the Russian government has set a target of increasing the share of Russian Helicopters in the global rotorcraft market from 13 percent today to 20 percent in 2025, exports of new Mil and Kamov machines continued to decline last year, according to official statistics released during the May 24 to 26 HeliRussia 2018 show in Moscow.
