NIZHNY NOVGOROD (BNS): Russia's Kazan aircraft will build a new strategic bomber for the nation, a Russian news agency reported on Tuesday.

Russia is also manufacturing a helicopter plant with the Kazan-based enterprise. Under the new project, the company will soon start the production of Mi-38 helicopter.
