Russian authorities place follow-on order for six Barco-equipped Beriev aircraft.
Visualization expert Barco proudly announces that the Russian Ministry of Defense has recently ordered six Beriev BE-200 multipurpose aircraft featuring Barco's state-of-the-art cockpit visualization solutions. The contract follows a similar order placed last year. For Barco and the Russian Institute of Aircraft Equipment (NIIAO), integrator of the cockpit system, the follow-on order highlights the confidence in their next-generation cockpit solutions.
Over the past years, long-term Barco customers Beriev Aviation Company and the Institute of Aircraft Equipment (NIIAO) have worked to upgrade the Beriev BE-200 amphibious aircraft to actively conduct its certification according to the strict EASA standards. The upgraded Beriev is fitted with an EASA-compliant, full-glass cockpit solution, comprising six Barco MFD-2068 multi-function displays and two customized Barco Control Display and Management Systems (CDMS-3000). In July 2012, the Russian Ministry of Emergencies ordered six of the new Beriev BE-200 planes.
The Defense Ministry has ordered six additional new aircraft: two factory-standard BE-200 ChS (ChS is the Russian acronym for ‘emergency situations') and four BE-200PS search and rescue planes.
