February 7, 2012
Russian helicopter maker Rostvertol and Chinese Xi’Ao Aeroplane Manufacturing will build a plant in northern China capable of manufacturing 100 lightweight civil Mi-2A helicopters annually, Xinhua said on Monday.
The first phase of the plant, located on 47 hectares in Hebei Province, will be completed by the end of July, Xinhua said citing local officials.
The investment for the first phase is estimated at $224 million.
The plant will also serve as a repair hub for Russia’s Mi-series choppers in the Asia region.
Mi-2A is a modernized version of the Russian Mi-2 Hoplit helicopter, which features a new power plant, advanced piloting and navigation equipment, and significant flight performance improvement.

CRISISBOOM 
Ola! Crisisboom,
I know what you mean, 1) Iran will start the war with Israel
2) Israel will start the war with Iran
2 a) Israel starts it the US joins
2 b) Israel will start it the US will not join in
3) The US and Israel will start the war with Iran
4) There isn’t going to be a war
——————-
1) Israel will do surgical strikes and despite all warnings of counter attacks Iran will do nothing
2) Israel and Iran will be embroiled in a war that destabalizes the entire region
3) China will enter the war to secure oil delivery for its growing economy and that will start a Chinese US war
4) Russia will join the Iranian side starting a US Russian war
5) Russia and China will jointly attack Israel and the US without a declaration of war and unite the entire region behind either Russia or China or both
6) Iran will thank Israel for the bombing and claim to have learned their lesson
Great Job!
