Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) is set to sign a deal with Russian Helicopters and Rostec Corporation on October 15 to manufacture Russian Kamov military helicopters.
The deal will be signed during Russian President Vladimir Putin's visit to India from October 14 to 17 to attend the 17th edition of the Indo-Russian summit and the Eighth BRICS summit.
