THE TANKER REFUELLER ON THE BASE OF MI-26T HELICOPTER IS INTENDED FOR: - operative delivery of fuel (aviation kerosene and diesel fuel) and lubricants;
- autonomous aircraft fuelling and land transport equipment
The Tanker Refueller version of the Mi-26 is used to transport large amounts of fuel and to carry out refuelling operations in remote areas or where conditions make it difficult to set up mobile refuelling stations.
Additionally, aviation fuel carried on the Tanker, can be used in place of extra fuel tanks to increase the helicopter's own ferrying range.
