High-quality footage of the Russian Mi-8MTV-5MM helicopter, which has been delivered to the Russian Northern Fleet. The Mi-8MTV-5M helicopters completed a flight from the factory in Tatarstan to the Northern Fleet base. The crews covered over 2,500 kilometers, including several refueling stops. According to the pilots, the new autopilot system significantly simplifies piloting, including at night. Thanks to powerful powerplants, starting is now easier. The helicopter's cabin and equipment can now be warmed up without even starting the engines, a crucial feature for the North. The Mi-8MTV-5M helicopter is an improved version of the Mi-8MTV-5-1, which is in service with the Russian army. The basic version of the Mi-8 helicopter was introduced in 1961. It is the most widely produced twin-engine helicopter in the world.
