Mi-10 Transport Helicopter

The Soviet Mil Mi-10 developed the helicopter into an aerial-crane platform for carrying large external loads. Its high landing gear and specialized load-handling arrangement distinguished it from ordinary troop transports. The design grew from experience with heavy helicopters such as the Mi-6 and supported the movement of machinery, equipment, and other bulky cargo. It represents an actual heavy-lift aircraft rather than a conventional attack helicopter. The external-load concept avoided fitting every bulky object inside a normal cargo cabin. That specialization made the Mi-10 useful for certain industrial and construction tasks as well as military heavy-lift experimentation and transport. The later Mi-10K used shorter landing gear for specialized crane work.
