Innovative Helicopters for Firefighting, Ambulance, and Police Services Take Center Stage in UAE
Abu Dhabi, UAE – Russian Helicopters Holding, a subsidiary of State Corporation Rostec, is set to showcase an advanced lineup of helicopters tailored for emergency services at the prestigious IDEX-2025 defense exhibition. The display features the latest Ka-32A11M firefighting helicopter, along with two specialized Ansat models designed for ambulance and police operations. Additionally, the Holding will present the Mi-38 in its luxurious VIP configuration.
The light multi-purpose Ansat, serially produced by the Kazan Helicopter Plant, has gained recognition both in Russia and internationally for its high efficiency in rescue and medical evacuation operations. Boasting the most spacious cabin in its class, the Ansat allows medical teams to perform life-saving procedures comfortably and effectively. Its design accommodates a full-fledged intensive care module, making it a preferred choice for emergency medical services.
Apart from its medical applications, the Ansat’s agility, speed, and readiness for rapid deployment make it an ideal choice for law enforcement agencies. Its capability to take off on short notice and land in confined, unprepared locations—including roadways and urban environments—enhances its appeal for police operations. To highlight these capabilities, Russian Helicopters will exhibit a police variant at IDEX-2025.
A major highlight of the exhibition is the Ka-32A11M, an advanced iteration of the globally renowned firefighting helicopter. Designed for optimal performance in extreme conditions, the Ka-32A11M excels in fire suppression across various climates. Its stability in hovering, high maneuverability, and ease of operation make it an indispensable tool for combating wildfires and urban blazes. Notably, the helicopter’s capacity for horizontal fire extinguishing in high-rise buildings makes it highly relevant for densely populated areas such as the UAE.
Russian Helicopters’ presence at IDEX-2025 underscores its commitment to delivering state-of-the-art solutions for emergency response and security. By integrating cutting-edge technology with proven reliability, these helicopters are poised to set new benchmarks in emergency aviation services worldwide.
