The '''Aviaimpex KT-112 Yanhol''' ({{langx|uk|Янгол}}, "Angel") is a light, three-seat [[helicopter]] produced by [[Aviaimpex]] in Ukraine. It was first presented to the media on August 31, 2001.

==Design and development==
A three-seat prototype was first built in 2001, with its first flight planned for June 2002. The helicopter contains two {{cvt|73.5|kW|hp|lk=on}} [[Rotax]] [[Rotax 912|912 ULS]] [[flat-four]] [[piston engine]]s, pod-and-boom configuration, skid undercarriage, three-blade main rotor, and a two-blade tail rotor mounted on [[T-tail]] configuration. By May 2002, Aviaimpex had revealed plans for [[helicopter gunship]] and [[unmanned aerial vehicle]] versions. The [[Ministry of Defence (Ukraine)|Ukrainian Defence Ministry]] placed orders for 100 pilot training versions of this aircraft and the [[Ministry of the Interior]] ordered a number for patrol use. The [[Georgia (country)|Georgian]] government and the [[Moscow]] [[mayor]]'s office also placed an order for this aircraft. A total of 400 "Angel"s have been ordered in the two-seat configuration.

In 2010, the project ceased to exist. Part of the engineering team, in 2017 created its own company "Aviation Company Vector" where it continued to work on a completely updated twin-engine helicopter VM-4 "Jmil".
