| Tactical Transport Aircraft |
 |
The international project on joint development, production and sales of twin-turbofan Tactical Transport Aircraft envisions solidary cooperation of the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (India), the IRKUT Corporation and the Ilyushin Aviation Complex (Russia), with their design teams to be merged into a virtual enterprise. The programme of Tactical Transport Aircraft development will significantly broaden the horizons of Indo-Russian military-technical cooperation. While implementing this innovative programme, Russian and Indian engineers will acquire invaluable experience and expertise in joint creation of the top-of-the-line aviation product.

| A-002 Light-Weight Gyroplane |
 |
The A-002 gyroplane developed by the IRKUT’s Lightweight Aircraft Design Bureau is a lightweight 3-seat aerial vehicle featuring enhanced takeoff / landing capabilities and off-the-airfield basing. The first test sample of the A-002 took off on July 6, 2002. While the flight test programme is undergoing, the first batch of five pre-serial gyroplanes is in production. Serial production will start after certification completed.

| Onboard Safe-Maneuvering System |
 |
The Onboard Safe-Maneuvering System predicts three-dimensional dynamics characteristics of the aircraft in flight, determines oncoming dangerous maneuvering modes, and assists the pilot in avoidance of critical situations. The Russian Avionics Design Bureau has developed this system and successfully tested a pre-production sample on its own flight simulator, with high estimations of test pilots. Recently, installation of this system in a number of passenger and transport aircraft has been started.
