The Philippines’ acquisition of 16 Mi-171 Hip Helicopters from Russia was mentioned very briefly and with no other details during President Rodrigo Duterte’s Telesummit with Russian President Vladimir Putin recently. 

Quoting directly the News Report: “He (Duterte) noted positive developments in the procurement of 16 heavy-lift helicopters, adding that the Philippines looks forward to cooperating with Russia to speed up the modernization of defense assets and systems”.

I hope they will be able to sign a Contract and have these delivered soon.
