The Ka-226 is a versatile machine which can be adapted to multiple uses including Air Ambulance, police, fire fighting and search and rescue applications and is used by the Moscow City government in these various roles.

A Snapshot of the Kamov – Ka-226T
The multipurpose helicopter Ka-226 is certified by the Aviation Register of Interstate Aviation Committee in compliance with the FAR-29 requirements and has a Type Certificate N2 ST-225 Ka-226. The helicopter can be operated under day visual flight rules, outside icing conditions, in the category A.

The use of Ka-226 coaxial rotor and the original layout of the fuselage give it significant advantages in capacity, simplicity and ease of piloting. Lack of mutual influence of channels control helicopters equipped with large LCD cockpit display, low rise boot pilot in flight and, consequently, increase flight safety.

As compared with the helicopters of a traditional single main rotor/tail rotor configuration, the Ka-226 helicopter has a number of advantages due to its coaxial configuration and specific layout:

1. The lack of tail rotor ensures increased load lifting capacity, higher OGE hover ceiling and ability to fly at the altitude of 5000 m (16393 ft) due to higher efficiency of helicopter coaxial configuration and smaller (10-15%) power loss of power plant due to lack of rudder screws.

2. Absence of interaction between individual helicopter control channels makes the piloting easier and simpler.

3. Small size (diameter of the rotor is 13 meters), the powerful and reliable power plant of two engines which can be used to service offshore oil platforms, ships, unprepared to limited areas and in the cramped conditions of the modern city;

4. The helicopter can land and takeoff from unprepared sites including sites overgrown with shrubs.

5. The absence of tail rotor eliminates the personnel injuries when the helicopter is on the ground.

Distinctive feature of the Ka-226 is a modular design of fuselage, which ensures its multi- functionality, depending on the application of unified quick-modules, equipped with a variety of target hardware. Installation / removing of the module can be implemented by only 2 people in 2-3 hours.

The helicopter is equipped with two powerful and reliable engines of Rolls-Royce model 250- S20R / 2. Currently around the world in helicopters are more than 18000 engines of this family. Total time on the park model 250 engines exceeded 110 mlh flight hours. Maintenance and repair of engines is carried in more than 25 technical centers Rolls Royce in many countries.
