Design and development

Development is based on extensive use of advanced technologies tested to ensure high performance and reduce operating costs. A full-scale mockup of the helicopter was first built to optimize the layout of technological, operational, and ergonomic features. A wind tunnel model TsAGI was created to test flight characteristics and improve aerodynamic airframe layout. Laboratories tested the air intakes' dust device to improve efficiency. A model of the Ka-115 was presented at the aerospace show MAKS-95 in Zhukovsky. Prototype's first flight was 1999 and the aircraft is in production.

The basic Ka-115 is powered by a Pratt & Whitney Canada/Klimov PW206K/2 engine that drives a coaxial rotor system, equipped with rotor de-icing. The Ka-115 features a large five-door cabin with large windows and a skid undercarriage. The cabin is fitted with vibration and noise suppression, heating and ventilation systems, and comfortable shock-absorbing crew and passenger seats.

Mit der Kamow Ka-115 (russisch Камов Ка-115) entwickelte Kamow einen leichten Mehrzweckhubschrauber in der Klasse der französischen „Ecureuil“. Der Antrieb besteht aus einer 550 PS starken PK206D-Turbine, die von dem russisch-kanadischen Joint Venture Pratt & Whitney / Klimow entwickelt wird. Das von Kamow bekannte Koaxialrotorsystem, bestehend aus zwei gegeneinanderdrehenden Dreiblatt-Rotoren, wurde beibehalten.
