I've stood beside this thing in real life at the Central Air Force Museum at Monino, outside Moscow. It is really hard to fathom just how fucking big this thing is. The thing that really stuck out to me (apart from obvious) was the tail.... just the sheer size of it.... it's like standing next to a building. I highly recommend the museum to anyone interested in Soviet aviation, it's a bit out of the way, but it's a real treasure trove.
One day I'd love to see that. I'm a bit of a Russian/Soviet enthusiast (if I can put it like that?). Their innovation and engineering abilities were absolutely superb and often very unique, look at the Ekranoplan, Raketa and the AN-124/225 aircraft for starters. I've been under the 225 as it takes off and it's an experience like nothing else, it doesn't so much as fly, more shake the life out of the world around it until it gives up and moves out of its way. Beautiful thing it is. And then, there's the Ilyushin IL-76... oh, I could be here all evening... did I mention the Soviet Concrete architecture??? I'll fetch my coat...
I got interested and tried searching that place, this helicopter is actually visible in the museum grounds (it's in the open), both in satellite view and street view. Give it a check if it interests you. It's massive btw
@@restojon1 Yeah, they have just about every Soviet aircraft in existence at that museum (apart from the big boi Antonovs... they did have the chunky An-22 though, which I've always had a soft spot for). There are several hangars as well that are filled with WWII aircraft and experimentals from the 1930s. AThey have a Tu-144 there (that apparently has a still operable droop snoot and deployable canards). I tried asking the groundskeeper in my incredibly shit Russian to see if I could go inside, but to no avail. Anyway, definitely a highlight of my time in Moscow. I totally get your fascination of Russian/Soviet things... I just excitedly recieved a book on Soviet Bus Stops and everyone thinks I'm crazy hahaha
I went there last year...can confirm it's huuuge and it's right by the entrance. Would have been crazy to see and feel it taking off. We taxied there and it was actually pretty cost effective and easy.
Спасибо!!!! This is so lovely, thank you! As a kid I’d visit my grandmother in Monino where a V-12 is on display at the local airforce museum. A TU-144 is there too. It’s essentially a giant field full of Soviet Aircraft with a small museum across the road. I’d always make a point of visiting in the summer and the V-12 was my favorite (along with the Sukhoi T4 - the Soviet equivalent of the XB-70). The V-12 is truly massive and you’ll be glad to know well looked by experts and volunteers. The rotor blades are so big that it’s hard to imagine they could even spin. There was a lovely guard working there who was happy to see a young girl being excited about aircraft engineering and once gave me a tour of the V-12 interior. Like many Soviet and Russia aircraft its cockpit is painted in a specific turquoise - I was told this is because Soviet scientists believed this color kept pilots relaxed does not strain their eyes when looking at other lights and dials. Anyways, there’s something beautiful and melancholic about that field, you can’t help but think of all the hours and dedication put into creating such aircraft - even if you disagree with their purpose. And then to see them slowly decaying, wondering what happened to the people who made them? I nearly became an aeronautical engineer but my other passion, architecture won. But I’m still an enthusiast. Seeing this video made me really nostalgic and it’s lovely knowing more people will learn about this beautiful aircraft. Anyway, thank you again. You might not read this but if you do another aircraft that’s in Monino which you may want to make a video about is the Bartini Beriev VVA 14. It was amphibious and VTOL - really ahead of its time.

@@st4g095 come to my stream...find one of the broadcasts with an еnglish translation....let's see how much you have enough, if you really want to know))
part of the reason why the collapse of the soviet union is considered as one of the biggest geopolitical disaster of the 20th century, the innovation that took place during the cold war (mostly supported by the government) no longer takes place today
The Soviet Union made such achivememts no other country could do. It brought the first man to space, the first sattelite, they built the largest planes, the largest helicoptes, the largest ground effect vehicle (the Caspian Sea monstre) and many more achivements in science and engineering. The decline and collapse of the USSR definetly set the world back many years.
If there's one thing I miss about the Cold Wars, that would be these crazy engineering projects. Modern development seems to mostly revolve around "how much money we can squeeze out with this". Gone are they days of "f*ck it! Lets build it just to one up the other guys!"
In fairness, a lot of these ‘crazy projects’ (Rotodyne, Flying Boats, Ekranoplan, Giant Helicopters, TU-144 etc) failed or had very short lifespans. They were made and then nobody used them for anything. Today’s creations are made to be useful not impressive. However, there are still some wealthy companies making weird and wonderful inventions. The Airlander 10 and Stratolaunch come to mind.

When I was 11 or 12 , my older brother and I used to get aviation magazines from France. I first read of the Mi-12 in a French report on the Paris Air Show. Not much was known about it at the time, especially not its purpose, but this kid became fascinated by it. Since then, I've seen very little published about this leviathan in the world press and practically nothing in any English-language publications, to the point that practically all US authors completely ignore it when discussing the world's largest helicopters. Thank you for publishing this and doing the research. You have gained a new subscriber.
@@JG-oc9gc pretty sure the mobile launch cars on american railways just had big steel arms that swung out and planted into the ground, like what cranes use to stabilize themselves
@@JG-oc9gc Soviet and american mobile ICBMs are launched from railcars and tracks, (RT-23 and Topol for russia, Peacekeeper Rail Garrison and the Hard Mobile Launcher for the US).
I actually had a honor of meeting the pilot that was piloting it, he was also the pilot that loweved the concrete block on top of the Chernobyl NPP reactor. His name is Gurgen Karapetyan, he is 83 as of now and he is probably the top test pilot Mil ever had, having flown their helicopters even after he was 60 years old.
Obligatorily also read that last part in said Russian accent. You see, Ivan, filthy capitalist America and glorious Soviet Russia agree on one thing, one thing only. Goal number one is not where big boom stick go, is how to get it there first.

Everytime Mustard uploads a video I stop doing everything to watch it, they're just awesome! I'm glad I found this channel, I can proudly say it's one of my favorites in all TH-cam
Love the new comic technique. The attention to detail in the episode is incredible and a testament to both you growth as a creator and your dedication to your work.
Ruslan and Mriya were developed way later than V-12. Also, if I recall correctly, AN-22 is way less demanding in terms of airstrip quality than torbofan aircrafts.
@@jur4x however, Mriya and Ruslan was also very forgiving in airstrip quality relative to other aircraft. I just threw it in, because of the fact that the AN-225 and -124 are frequent recommendations on this channel too.
Amazing content as always! The "comic book" style of presentation is an interesting variation on the usual Mustard style. I like it, though the gorgeous CGI is still always a treat.
That thing is a absolute unit, kinda a shame we didn't get to see it do some heavy lifting..Great content as always Mustard! Just watched your mig25 business jet video on Nebula, amazing work good sir!
That's quite typical for Russia. If you ever visit Moscow Kremlin, you'll see there the Tsar Bell (the biggest bell of its time), which never rang, and the Tsar Cannon (the biggest russian cannon of its time), and you guess what - it never made a shot.
Completely forgot about this helicopter. The video brings back warm memories from childhood in 1980s about this one and other enormous machines in children's books I used to have.
Some one needs to start an engineering firm to build these old soviet designs to see if building these with modern technologies could gain investor interest to be able to put them to some kind of use
it would not. even mi 26 is oversized for most of the tasks. also china kind of said they want to build more an 225 but nothing ever came out of it anyway...
Mom: Why dont you just go to the museum and look at these things in the real world. Me: This is Mustard mom, it has higher quality rendering than the real world.
I remember seeing this helicopter in news reports and thinking they would be building these for city to city transport. I later thought what would end their use was the huge oil price rises of the early 70s. as helicopters would be more expensive to fly the jets. One thing that did strike me about the layout was how similar it is to the German WW2 Focke-Achgelis 223 helicopters of WW2. Turns out it grew into the Mil V-12 Interestingly America had the idea of launching ICBMs by deploying them out from inside a transport aircraft using parachutes. The first chute would pull the missile backward out of the aircraft and the second chute would deploy out of the missiles nose cone which would leave it pointing upwards. Then once it was pointing up the engines would be fired and it would continue its flight to its target. The problem, of course, is that if the second chute does not deploy you have a missile full of full and a nuclear warhead plummeting towards the earth. not what you wanted.
Well, they could use it as a transport, but the local airlines were doing just well with An-10s and An-2s, and more remote regions didn't just have a need for huge machines like this.
1. Well, USSR was an oil supplier on the market with big reserves. Not sure if the price crisis in the 70s would really affect their internal use. The helicopter was discontinued because it had no practical purpose.V-12 was designed, as the video suggests, to compensate for the lack of a more powerful engine and rotor. But the development took so long that the Soviets now developed a new engine and rotor, which could be used on a more conventional layout. The biggest issues with this chopper stem from its layout as twin side mounted engines. On one side it can generate stability problems with yaw and bank (Hope I did not get my axis wrong again). On the other you have a machine hich increased its footprint, meaning you need to clear out a huge area just for this beast to land, making it impractical for both cities and thick forrests. The more 'conventional' layout of the Mi 26 meant that at least you reduce the footprint a bit and gain a more traditional way of control. 2. Perhaps. In aviation many seemingly copied or improved upon one another. 3. That airplane ICBM seems the most impractical ideea I heard in a long time. First of all, how are you going to aim that thing? The INS is going to be all over the place. And the parachute needed to hold 20 tons in the air would be massive.

When I was 11 or 12 , my older brother and I used to get aviation magazines from France. I first read of the Mi-12 in a French report on the Paris Air Show. Not much was known about it at the time, especially not its purpose, but this kid became fascinated by it. Since then, I've seen very little published about this leviathan in the world press and practically nothing in any English-language publications, to the point that practically all US authors completely ignore it when discussing the world's largest helicopters. Thank you for publishing this and doing the research. You have gained a new subscriber.

I actually had a honor of meeting the pilot that was piloting it, he was also the pilot that loweved the concrete block on top of the Chernobyl NPP reactor. His name is Gurgen Karapetyan, he is 83 as of now and he is probably the top test pilot Mil ever had, having flown their helicopters even after he was 60 years old.

Ruslan and Mriya were developed way later than V-12. Also, if I recall correctly, AN-22 is way less demanding in terms of airstrip quality than torbofan aircrafts.
@@jur4x exactly
@@jur4x however, Mriya and Ruslan was also very forgiving in airstrip quality relative to other aircraft. I just threw it in, because of the fact that the AN-225 and -124 are frequent recommendations on this channel too.

The comic book section was really cool you should include that in more of you’re videos + the 3D animations. You’re quality is astounding
Amazing content as always! The "comic book" style of presentation is an interesting variation on the usual Mustard style. I like it, though the gorgeous CGI is still always a treat.
0:00 - 5:27 is honestly one of the best crafted pieces of content I’ve ever watched. Bravo.
Making the engines side-by-side instead of putting some diversion nozzles on the engine outlets is wild lol

Today is one of the best days of 2020, a new Mustard release!
Hey Mustard, you should do a video on the Baade 152. It was East Germany’s first attempt to build an airliner but ended up failing miserably.
Imagine spending 10 years of your life designing a kickass helicopter only for it to not be used
They still have the largest ever built, as well as the Mi-26, the largest production helicopter.
That's quite typical for Russia. If you ever visit Moscow Kremlin, you'll see there the Tsar Bell (the biggest bell of its time), which never rang, and the Tsar Cannon (the biggest russian cannon of its time), and you guess what - it never made a shot.
Completely forgot about this helicopter. The video brings back warm memories from childhood in 1980s about this one and other enormous machines in children's books I used to have.

The last time I was this early, Putin was still KGB.
"Once a KGB agent, always a KGB agent." - says a KGB agent of my acquaintance.
The Cold War period had an enormous impact on the technical and scientific development of all mankind.
Some one needs to start an engineering firm to build these old soviet designs to see if building these with modern technologies could gain investor interest to be able to put them to some kind of use
it would not. even mi 26 is oversized for most of the tasks.
also china kind of said they want to build more an 225 but nothing ever came out of it anyway...
"I'm gonna be productive."
Mustard: "nope."
I have been waiting for a Mustard for awhile, I'm quite happy rn
Oh man I've seen him in Russia. He is in the Monino, at Russian Central Aviation Museum. However I had no idea what he was until this video.
Mustard deserves more than 100 m .. no one can produce content like them
I swear this channel deserves at the very least 3 million subs the quality is ridicolous
Happy 3 year anniversary on your TH-cam channel! You've improved so much in such a short time! :D
You make really great videos! Keep up the good work!
A humble offering for the algorithm...

Soviet Aerospace engineers were the best in the world.
The production values for these documentaries are amazing.
soviets were so full of kick arse ideas. this, the ekranoplan, and a bunch of others i've forgotten about.

Saudações do Brasil!
USA: So how big is your copter?
USSR: Yes
These videos have better effects and general production value than a lot of whats on tv in a similar genre
Man... After the 60's aviation had so many good and unconventional ideas... I don't understand why no one re-take them.
Mom: Why dont you just go to the museum and look at these things in the real world.
Me: This is Mustard mom, it has higher quality rendering than the real world.
I remember seeing this helicopter in news reports and thinking they would be building these for city to city transport. I later thought what would end their use was the huge oil price rises of the early 70s. as helicopters would be more expensive to fly the jets.
One thing that did strike me about the layout was how similar it is to the German WW2 Focke-Achgelis 223 helicopters of WW2. Turns out it grew into the Mil V-12
Interestingly America had the idea of launching ICBMs by deploying them out from inside a transport aircraft using parachutes. The first chute would pull the missile backward out of the aircraft and the second chute would deploy out of the missiles nose cone which would leave it pointing upwards. Then once it was pointing up the engines would be fired and it would continue its flight to its target. The problem, of course, is that if the second chute does not deploy you have a missile full of full and a nuclear warhead plummeting towards the earth. not what you wanted.
At that point, this would be a full scale nuclear war. Nobody would survive to even realize or frankly even care.
Well, they could use it as a transport, but the local airlines were doing just well with An-10s and An-2s, and more remote regions didn't just have a need for huge machines like this.
1. Well, USSR was an oil supplier on the market with big reserves. Not sure if the price crisis in the 70s would really affect their internal use. The helicopter was discontinued because it had no practical purpose.V-12 was designed, as the video suggests, to compensate for the lack of a more powerful engine and rotor. But the development took so long that the Soviets now developed a new engine and rotor, which could be used on a more conventional layout. The biggest issues with this chopper stem from its layout as twin side mounted engines. On one side it can generate stability problems with yaw and bank (Hope I did not get my axis wrong again). On the other you have a machine hich increased its footprint, meaning you need to clear out a huge area just for this beast to land, making it impractical for both cities and thick forrests. The more 'conventional' layout of the Mi 26 meant that at least you reduce the footprint a bit and gain a more traditional way of control.
2. Perhaps. In aviation many seemingly copied or improved upon one another.
3. That airplane ICBM seems the most impractical ideea I heard in a long time. First of all, how are you going to aim that thing? The INS is going to be all over the place. And the parachute needed to hold 20 tons in the air would be massive.
Chinook:
*I can lift some vehicles at one time!*
Mi 12:
*Yes*
