On the 8th of June a meeting of the Organizing Committee on preparation and holding of the X International Aerospace Salon “Aviasvit – XXI” was held in the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade of Ukraine, chaired by Stepan Kubiv, First Vice Prime Minister of Ukraine.

This national exhibition event in the field of aerospace and space technologies held in Ukraine every four years will be held this year on October, 11-14. Volodymyr Kharchenko, Acting Rector of the National Aviation University, was invited to the meeting of the Organizing Committee.

The organization of such a big event is always connected with the solution of many problems. And especially now, when there is war in the East of Ukraine against Russian-terrorist units. The Organizing Committee has outlined a program of actions to overcome them. One of the implied points is changing the venue of the salon: from Gostomel it will be transferred to Zhulyany.

Without exaggeration it is possible to say that one of the main speeches at the meeting was delivered by the head of NAU Volodymyr Kharchenko. Having informed the participants of the meeting about the achievements of NAU in the development and manufacture of UASs (unmanned aircraft systems), Volodymyr Petrovich suggested that this up-to-date aviation industry should be presented as widely as possible or as a separate direction. The Committee Members unanimously supported his proposal.

As you know, three drones developed by NAU are being tested now, and another seven ones are being conducted on the stocks.

However, besides these achievements, the National Aviation University will show on a large plasma screen its latest development – convertiplane of NAU – KM 3 “Kubok”, which has already been patented and has received support of “Ukroboronprom”. It is a twin-engine aircraft with rotary screws on wing tips. The main advantage of this convertiplane is the combination of high speed horizontal flight and vertical takeoff and landing.
