One of Russia's biggest helicopter manufacturers is starting a new batch of production. Hundreds of internationally acclaimed models have already been ordered from abroad. Russian choppers are occupying the skies above more than 30 countries. But Russia plans to go further, quadrupling its share of the world market within the next five years.

    "New" Airborne Laser? Sorry to disapoint you but Soviet Airborne Laser (Beriev A-60) worked in 1970s - and those times we learned that lasers in athmosphere are amost USELESS - aspecialy in terms of cost-efficency. Of cource for Pentagon it is NOT important - what is important for them in to impress average ignorant taxpayers with cool-looking stuff - TO DRAIN MORE MONEY out of them

  • go russia!

  • @polecat987 have you read aviation history? The PAK-FA fighter IS a new generation aircraft totally different from say the MiG-29 or the Su-35 this helo not it just an upgraded version period.

  • @polecat987 shut up bloody idiot

  • @hotpocketpoison

    Not to mention that Basov first to create a theory and built laser diodes.

    Just as first LED was built in USSR either.

  • @hotpocketpoison

    Actualy MASER of Towns didn`t worked in 1953 and it was only single level impulse system. Basov and Prokhorov began to built their MASER in 1953 (just as Towns) and made it in 1954. It was two level and continous operation. Complete principles of MASER was published by Basov and Prokhorow on conference in 1952.

    The only principial difference between MASER and LASER is that LASER emmit in part of electromagnetic spectre which belongs to the light. Laser is sub-species of MASER

  • @MarshallJukov actually, a MASER is very different from a LASER.(the first MASER was invented by Charles Hard Towns in 1953). a LASER uses infrared light, and Theodor Harold Maiman invented the first one in 1960.(both of the listed people were american)

  • @hotpocketpoison

    Nope. In was Nikolay Basov and Alexander Prokhorov - they created major principles of simulated emmision and built first quantium generator (maser) in 1954. Before Townes built it independently. All of them got Nobel prize in 1964.

  • @MarshallJukov lol, lasers were invented in the US.

  • Sorry I dont see a new-gen helicopter there...

  • @DigitalExplosives Yeah they did in the Soviet days. Now when you have every south caucasus, kazakhstan, uzbekhistan, Tedjikistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, etc etc Immigrating to Russia... Wanna bet they build strong anymore? Hahaha...
