At the beginning of the full-scale Russian aggression in Ukraine, the president of the Motor Sich corporation Vyacheslav Boguslaev ordered to hide the documents on the helicopters so that Ukrainian pilots could not use them, and then ordered to remove the blades from the helicopters, Prosecutor General Andriy Kostin reported.
"Trading in "engines of death" is not everything. The investigation has information that the president of "Motor Sichi" at the beginning of a full-scale war, after a corresponding appeal from the Ukrainian military, ordered the company's employees to hide documents on helicopters so that the Ukrainian defense forces could not use the equipment. Ukrainian pilots will not get behind the wheel of a helicopter without special forms," Kostin said.
The Prosecutor General added: "And that's not all! After the Ukrainian military asked for the helicopters, the president of Motor Sichi ordered the equipment to be dismantled. Just remove the blades from the helicopters!"
The Prosecutor General drew attention to the fact that all this happened at the beginning of the war: "We all remember how enemy helicopters stormed Gostomel. How other cities were shelled. And when timely support to the Armed Forces in the air was so important..." - he added.
