Шаблон:Short description

The Advanced Heavy Lifter is a large helicopter project developed by Aviation Industry Corporation of China.

Development

In 2009, Avic projected a Шаблон:Cvt civil Advanced Heavy Lifter (AHL), likely also useful to the Chinese military. In 2014, the 6,000 kW (8,000 hp) Chinese WZ-20 was reportedly selected. In 2015, the joint project with Russian Helicopters grew to Шаблон:Cvt, with a seven blade main rotor and a Шаблон:Cvt ceiling. In 2016, Avic took control, leaving Russian Helicopters as a supplier, presumably of the transmission. In 2018, maximum weight grew again to Шаблон:Cvt.[1]

To power it, China will choose between the Ivchenko Progress D-136T manufactured by Ukraine’s Motor-Sich, powering the current Mi-26, and the Russian Шаблон:Cvt PD-12V turboshaft developed from the Aviadvigatel PD-14 core for an updated Mi-26. After a $2 billion investment, AVIC hopes to produce 200.[2]

Design

The Шаблон:Cvt takeoff weight and a Шаблон:Cvt MTOW allow for a Шаблон:Cvt internal payload or a Шаблон:Cvt external one. AVIC targets a range of 800 km (432 nmi), a cruise of 270 km/h (146 kn) and a Шаблон:Cvt ceiling. Design targets are closer to the Sikorsky CH-53K than the Шаблон:Cvt MTOW Russian Mil Mi-26.[2] The Шаблон:Cvt CH-53K is the largest US helicopter.[1]
