All legendary aircraft start somewhere - the Russian Mil Mi series helicopters can be found around the world carrying out a wide range of tasks. For example, Mil Mi-8's carry out search and recovery operations for landing Soyuz spacecraft in Kazakhstan.
The 1950 Mil Mi-1 and its success (2,500+ produced) paved the way for its bigger brothers to follow.
