Hi  Guys.

This  is  a  BERKUT VL  rotary  powered coaxial  helicopter  made in
Russia. They  are  supposed  to  conduct  test flights  last quarter
of  2013.     Then total  silence.     Does  anyone  know what
happened ?

      I remember having read about the people conducting research on
     RCEs in Russia, that somebody came and took all the models
   they had been working at, and also the production machinery for
   building more engines. No idea about the current situation of Wankel
   production or research by Russians, but some videos are in YouTube.
     Best regards. Salut †

Vas built many 1000's of Wankel rotary engines. Mostly copies of Mazda.
The KGB used them because the Russian capitalist mafia did not have them
so they could catch the capitalist crooks  :)
