Russia is producing modernized Mi-26s and many countries of the world are buying them. There is no competition for this helicopter in the world. And this is not the largest helicopter that was developed in the USSR. MI-12 is the world's largest helicopter, which is significantly larger than even this giant called the Mi-26. But the Mi-12 did not go into mass production, because the tasks that were presented in the USSR to helicopters changed. In any case, it was in the USSR that the most amazing and advanced helicopters were created, which broke many world records.
I saw the previous model and it was even bigger, but with two rotors with one body and two parallel rotors on both sides, it was huge! It's a huge help in any fire
Say what you will about Russia, or the Ukraine situation, Putin, blah blah blah. That all aside, they know how to make some magnificent machines, especially helicopters.
I like the fact that the two personnel in the boom lift basket at 0:07 are wearing no safety protection to speak of. Due to Australia's draconian safety regulations we would have to wear a high visibility long sleeve shirt, long pants, a hard hat, safety glasses, possibly hearing protection, sunscreen and a full safety harness that is then connected to the basket frame! Aside from this observation the Mil Mi-26 helicopter is a beast of a machine and full marks to the Russian's for creating it.

The power in those blades must be crazy. The main rotor is 35m in diameter if I remember correctly. Over 30m for sure tho. So each blade is 15ish meters long, totating several times per second. That's crazy fast and a crazy chopping power for sure. 10/10 would not want to get hit by that.
When I get rich I’m going to buy this helicopter for my own personal ride. Forget a eurocopter, you look like a boss pulling up to the airport in this thing!
I wonder how much downdraft wind power a few of these would be able to create if you put them in a line (of some configuration) and used them to BLOW OUT forest fires, tire fires, refinery fires, or any fire that is simply too big for fire trucks to put out on their own without needing 4 million gallons of water or more?
Yeah, I should have gone into more detail..... 1) You place the helicopters on the side of the flames above the area that they haven't reached yet. Like with forest fires you place the helicopters where the flames haven't gotten to yet. Since the downdraft is hitting the flames from the unburned side the flames wouldn't have the ability to advance. For example, and time a fire is advancing up a hill you simply place the helicopters AT the top of the hill so that the downdrafts are continuing to blow down the mountain towards the flames at the lower elevation (even if that elevation is only 40 feet lower). Since the downdrafts are much faster than the rising heat coming from the flames the flame is being back down the mountain. Eventually the flames would be blown out before they could reach the top of the mountain. 2) Since the helicopters could hover in one specific area for 5-15 minutes straight with the same force of wind power constantly, the pilots would simply stay in the "tunnel" that is created from the air being "sucked into" the blades from above and "blown out" from below until the constant push of air has blown the flames out just by sheer capacity to move millions of cubic feet of air in a very small location at a very rapid pace. Kind of like making a "burning man" size bonfire in a wind tunnel that's 100 feet tall by 200 feet long...........and then feeding a constant 150 MPH wind into the tunnel from one end. EVENTUALLY the amount of moving air would blow out the flames before all of the fuel could be consumed. (8^)

I bet that tail rotor would work just fine for a regular helicopter
Pink Panther My helicopter teacher say that the Tail rotor is the size of the Huges 500 main rotor
It could almost peprfectly fit an MD500.
lol so underrated comment
In fact, it’s tail rotor is almost same as Robinson r44 heli main rotor
@Keith Waylon it reallx works?

Fun Fact..the tail rotor diameter of the Mi 26 is nearly the same size as the mainrotor of the MD500

Eine mega Maschine. Wäre mal beeindruckend sie Live zu sehen
I love 2:01 when rotors start rotating very slowly then gradually achieve maximum speed.
This thing probably consumes more fuel during the start up until the wheels leave the ground than my cars uses in a whole year.
105' rotor diameter. That's incredible. Wonder what the velocity of the tips of the rotors is?

Tail Rotor could be used on a Hughes/MD-500!
How this big thing can get up in air……. Marvellous engineering
The main rotor is rotating slowly enough that the camera doesn't capture it as a blurred mess so you can follow the individual blade tips rotating.
The sky trembles, and the Earth shakes. Soviet Power!
Beautiful bird.
first time i saw this monster it was carrying chinook.
Certainly doesn’t look like a 20 knot wind!
It's good to have a really big chopper.
the largest models of any vehicle have proportionally longer bodies: double deck coach bus, over-wheel bilevel train, mi-26
It can hold a military grade truck and a jeep in the back.
