UTair aims to build Latin America's first helicopter maintenance center in Peru, state news agency Andina reported.
The company plans to invest $8 million in 10 hectares of land south of Lima, workshops, offices and a hangar to handle growing regional demand for Russian choppers, the Lima-based agency said last week, citing UTair Helicopter Services president Alexei Vinogradov.
UTair will also invest $50 million this year in new MI-171 helicopters for its Helisur unit, which supplies Peru's oil industry, according to Andina.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
