The
Mi-6
is a big, powerful transport helicopter. Getting this large vehicle in the air was no easy
task; the Mi-6 has an enormous gearbox, heavier
than its engines, and often uses short wings to unload the rotor in cruise. It
was not only for a long time the largest helicopter, it was also the fastest.
Modifications :

Mi-22 'Hook-C' - airborne command post;
Mi-26 'Halo' - straightforward transport extension. The world's largest
transport helicopter;
