The landing transport Mi-8MTV-5 / MI-17V-5 is a modern modification of the Mi-8MT helicopter, developed taking into account the experience of combat use. It was created as a result of further improvement of the Mi-8 family helicopters, developed by the design bureau of the Moscow Helicopter Plant at the expense and with the direct participation of the Kazan Helicopter Plant. Appointment.

The helicopter is designed to carry cargo and paratroopers inside the cockpit and oversized cargo on an external sling. The layout of the helicopter minimizes the time it takes to leave the helicopter, which is especially important when landing in combat conditions (36 people in 15 seconds). In the landing version, the helicopter has 36 seats, 6 of them are easily removable. The Mi-17V-5 is equipped with a parachute-free landing system, which allows for the simultaneous descent of four people. The helicopter is equipped with an SLG-300 winch with a side boom with a lifting capacity of 300 kg. To search for victims at night, an SX-16 searchlight is used. For the evacuation of victims, 12 stretchers can be installed in the cargo compartment. Transportation of bulky goods is carried out using an external sling equipped with a weighing device and an emergency release system. It is possible to transport long cargoes inside the fuselage with an open ramp. To increase the flight range, the Mi-17V-5 is equipped with additional fuel tanks (up to 4 tanks inside the cargo compartment or two tanks outside on special farms). The armed version of the Mi-17V-5 is intended for fire support of ground forces, assault forces during disembarkation or evacuation, for targeted bombing. To protect against enemy air defense radar systems, an onboard defense complex (BKO) is installed, including a screen-exhaust device (EVU), UV-26 or ASO-2V, L166-V1A and other equipment. For use at night, the cabin is adapted to the use of night vision goggles. Mi-17V-5 can be equipped with surveillance systems (FLIR) of Russian or Western production. A helicopter equipped with such systems can be effectively used when checking the functioning of power lines, gas and oil pipelines, and conducting environmental monitoring. Navigation equipment "ABRIS" provides display of the position of the helicopter on the movable electronic map and adapted to the use of night vision goggles. A phased modernization program is underway. To improve altitude characteristics, instead of the TV3-117VM engine, VK-2500 will be installed, and instead of the auxiliary power unit (APU) AI-9? APU Safir. The Mi-17 in this configuration was tested in the highlands of Tibet. As a result, the following were achieved: a practical ceiling of up to 6500 m, a static ceiling of up to 4500 m, the possibility of starting engines in the temperature range from -40 ° C to + 40 ° C at an altitude of over 6000 m was tested. will receive new on-board equipment and new units of the carrier system, developed by the MVZ them. M.L. Mile for modern Mi-28 and Mi-38 helicopters. This upgrade will be produced under the designation Mi-17V-7. Design. One of the distinctive features of the Mi-17V-5 (Mi-8MTV-5) is the change in the configuration of doors and hatches. Changed the shape of the nose ("dolphin nose"). The Mi-17V-5 (Mi-8MTV-5) has a left door widened by 0.4 m and an additional right door standard size... Instead of manually folding cargo doors, a ramp is installed that opens with a hydraulic drive, which reduces the time for preparing the helicopter for loading and unloading, and avoids manual operations. The fuselage design allows the helicopter to be modernized and equipped with additional equipment at the request of the buyer. In case of operation at aerodromes with dust cover, it can be equipped with a dust protection device. The nose part of the fuselage has a nose cone that rises upwards, which allows access for servicing the equipment located in the nose. Fuel tanks can be supplied in a sealed design and with polyurethane foam filling. Chronology of creation. The first flight of the prototype - 1995. The beginning of serial production - 1996. Since 1995, the Mi-8MTV-5 helicopter has repeatedly participated in aviation exhibitions and demonstrations in France, Germany, Greece, China, Brazil, Chile. State. Serial production is launched at Kazan Helicopters Plant. In total, about 100 helicopters were built for export supplies. Regions of operation - India, China.

It is a medium multipurpose helicopter used for passenger and freight transport... He performs a wide range of tasks in any region of the planet.

Development of the Mi-17 at the OKB im. M.L. Mil (now JSC "Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant") was completed in 1980, and in 1981 it was first demonstrated at the aerospace exhibition in Paris (France). Mi-17 helicopters are manufactured by the Kazan Helicopter Plant and the Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant, where more than 2000 Mi-17 helicopters of various modifications have been built.

The design of the helicopter is basically the same as that of the Mi-8, with a number of units and systems from the Mi-14. The Mi-17 outwardly differs from the Mi-8 by the installation of the tail rotor on the left side of the tail boom (instead of the right on the Mi-8) and shortened engine nacelles, the air intakes of which are equipped with dust protection devices.
The main rotor is equipped with pendulum vibration dampers to reduce the vibration level. The main rotor blades are made of fiberglass and have the same geometric dimensions as the Mi-8 helicopter.
The power plant has a system for automatically maintaining the rotor speed and a system for synchronizing the operation of the engines: in case of failure of one engine, the continuation of the flight with one engine operating in emergency mode is ensured. The helicopter is equipped with an auxiliary power plant GTE AI-9V for powering air starters of engines when they are started and for supplying the on-board network with direct current when the engines are not running.
The equipment provides helicopter piloting day and night and in adverse weather conditions.
The helicopter is equipped with two gas turbine engines TVZ-117MT NPO im. Klimov with a capacity of 1400 kW.

The US Department of Defense positively evaluates the quality of the Russian Mi-17V-5 helicopters, which are supplied to equip the armed forces of Afghanistan. This was announced in an exclusive interview with ARMS-TASS by a source in the military-industrial complex (MIC).

"The letter signed by the head of the American Office of Non-Standard Rotary Wing Aircraft NSRWA (Non-Standard Rotary Wing Aircraft) praises the Russian Mi-17V-5 helicopters. I emphasize that this is an official document, and not someone's words," the source said. ...

As the specialist noted, another recognition of the outstanding flight qualities and reliability of the Mi-17V-5 from the American side was the issuance of a certificate of recognition of procedures for ensuring and maintaining airworthiness in relation to Russian-made helicopters on November 9, 2011.

"US officials have repeatedly stated that they chose the Russian helicopters because of their unprecedented high reliability in a desert climate and sandstorms," ​​the source added.

The OPK representative also noted that from the very beginning of deliveries in 2011, the American side did not have any complaints about the quality of the supplied aircraft. "All the rotorcraft arrived on time, assembled them, conducted test flights and then used them as intended," the source added.

The main tactical specifications

"The serviceability of the fleet of supplied Russian helicopters exceeds the required level by 80-90 percent and this figure meets all the requirements," the defense industry representative also informed.

The source noted that the average annual flight time of one Mi-17V-5 helicopter in Afghanistan is more than 200 hours. "This figure is higher than the average annual flight rate during the Soviet period," he informed.

Before the overhaul According to the representative of the defense industry complex, there are 6-7 years or 2 thousand flight hours left. "Thus, the terms of overhaul have not yet come," he said.

"We are currently studying the possibility of extending the assigned resource indicator up to 35 years," the defense industry representative informed. Despite the fact that the United States does not take advantage of the opportunity to purchase additional spare parts for the Mi-17V-5 helicopters from Russia during the overhaul, according to the source, it will have to contact the manufacturer in the future.

"A relatively powerful enterprise abroad for the repair of Russian aircraft is located in Prague, at a plant in United United Arab Emirates(Sharzha) it is possible to repair the fuselage, the Zaporozhye Motor Sich enterprise will be able to repair engines.
