Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant (Russian: Московский вертолётный завод им. М. Л. Миля) is a Russian, and formerly Soviet, designer and producer of helicopters headquartered in Tomilino. It is a subsidiary of Russian Helicopters.[2]
The Moscow Mil Helicopter Plant includes a design bureau and an experimental production plant. The Mil Design Bureau is one of the world's leading developers of helicopters, with particular expertise in heavy-lift helicopters. It has developed both civil and military versions in a wide range of payload capacities, including the world's largest in serial production, the Mi-26.[3]
Ninety-five percent of the helicopters in the former Soviet Union were built to Mil designs. Series production facilities for Mil-designed helicopters include Rostvertol in Rostov-on-Don, the Kazan Helicopter Production Association, and the Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant.[3] Mil participates in the Euromil joint venture with Eurocopter.[citation needed]
Mil was established in 1947 under the guidance of Mikhail Mil as the helicopter laboratory of the Central Aerohydrodynamic InstituteinZhukovsky, Moscow Oblast.[4]
The Mil Mi-1 became the first mass-produced Soviet helicopter.[4] The Mi-8 helicopter, designed in the early 1960s, was a successful design in both military and civil applications, with over 12,000 units being produced.[4]
Mil merged with Kamov and Rostvertol to form Russian Helicopters in 2006.[5] The Mil brand name has been retained, although the new company eliminated overlapping product lines.
