 Mil Mi-24 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mil Mi-24 is a large combat helicopter gunship and low-capacity troop transport operated from 1976 by the Soviet Air Force, its successors, and over thirty other nations.
The core of the aircraft was taken from the Mil Mi-8 (NATO reporting name "Hip H"), two top mounted turboshaft engines driving a mid-mounted 17.3 m five-blade main rotor and a three blade tail rotor.
The problems with the dual-role Hind have prompted the development of the Mil Mi-28 and also the Kamov Ka-50 to replace it in the gunship role.

 Mil Mi-24
Arsenyev plant previously built the Mil Mi-24/25/35 series of combat helicopters, in parallel with Rostvertol, and was also manufacturer of the Yak-55 aerobatic lightplane; a modified version of the last-mentioned, the Technoavia SP-55, was returned to production in 1999, in an initial batch of five, two of which delivered to Technoavia by October 2000.
The Mi-24VP introduced a twin barrel GSh-23L cannon on the starboard fuselage side as operational experience in Afghanistan found the original gun ineffective against some targets, while the Mi-24P 'Hind-F' (and export Mi-35P) has a twin 30mm cannon.
Mil's feared 'Devil's Chariot' is unique in that it is a combined armed assault/attack helicopter, although the latter is its primary role.

 Soviet and Russian Helicopters
Mil also developed the Mi-24 Hind assault helicopter, which shared some features with the Mi-8, but was intended to carry a substantial weapons load.
The primary user of the Mi-8 was the Soviet military, and when the Soviet Union collapsed in the late 1980s, Mil's production of the Mi-8 dropped from hundreds a year to a few dozen a year, nearly all for export.
While Kamov designed numerous successful helicopters, the most important Soviet helicopter designer was Mikhail Leontevich Mil, who was as crucial to the development of Soviet helicopter aviation as Sikorsky was to the United States.

 The Mil Mi-1 "Hare", Mi-2 "Hoplite", & Mi-4 "Hound"
In September 1948, the Mil OKB performed the initial flight of the "GM-1", and submitted it to the 1950 competition.
The first two Mil GM-1 prototypes were lost in accidents, the second killing the pilot, but the bugs were worked out and machine went into Red Air Force service in 1951, by which time it had acquired the designation of "Mi-1".
The Sikorsky S-55 had gone into production in 1950 and it is hard to believe that the Mil OKB engineers weren't heavily influenced by it, but all that is saying is that the Soviets were smart enough to adopt good ideas when they saw them.
