Developed from Klimov TV2-117

The Klimov TV3-117 is a Soviet gas turbine aero engine .This engine was first made and designed by Klimov which in modern day is a aerospace manufacturer based in Saint Petersburg Russia .Moreover The Klimov TV3-117 engine was developed as an advanced version of the Klimov TV2-117, incorporating significant improvements in performance and reliability. [1] This engine was used in most medium lift, utility, and attack helicopters designed by the Mil and Kamov design bureaus. The TV3-117 turboshaft engine was developed in 1974. Later the Klimov TV3-117 was installed on 95% of all helicopters designed by Mil and Kamov Engineering Centre. The engine has been produced in many variants ,

The Klimov VK-800 is a turboshaft engine of the fifth generation. It is designed to equip the Mi-54, Ansat and Ka-226 "Sergei" type helicopters. The VK-800V derivative was developed for the power units of helicopters of small and large load-carrying capacity, both in twin- and single-engine configuration. The engine parameters meet the requirements of the tested model of a centrifugal compressor and the single-stage un-cooled turbines. All this simplifies the engine design and reduces expenses for its manufacture and operation. Moreover, the enhanced characteristics of the main units of the engine provide its high efficiency.
