In addition to equipment we can offer the required related services, including after sales service", said Deputy CEO for marketing and business development of Russian Helicopters Alexander Shcherbinin. At the airshow, a large business program is expecting the Russian delegation. Representatives of Russian Helicopters together with their colleagues from JSC Rosoboronexport hold a series of meetings aimed at strengthening cooperation with Latin American countries, where numerous Soviet and Russian military and civil helicopters are used. One of the important topics of the negotiation is a promising multipurpose helicopter Mi-171A2. This flight vehicle has unique performance characteristics.

Ka-226T helicopter has an unparalleled set of qualities making it indispensable when operating in small venues, including in dense urban areas. Due to its maneuverability, compact size, absence of antitorque rotor and high power-to-weight ratio, it can perform transport and special tasks in the most difficult conditions. Also, in March 2017, the holding company delivered the first shipborne Ka-226T helicopters. These machines have a number of features that significantly expand the potential for their application in coastal areas to protect borders, protect economic zones, safeguard offshore mining operations, and combat piracy.
Ansat is a light twin-engine multi-purpose helicopter with hydraulic/mechanical steering system and a capacity of 7–9 seats. The helicopter can carry 1,300 kg of payload in the cockpit and has the ability to quickly transform the cabin.

In December 2014 it was certified for passenger transportation. In May 2015, modification with medical module was certified.
