A 1:48 scale model of the Russian Mil Mi-171Sh transport and combat helicopter. The Zvezda 4835 kit consists of 394 parts, and the completed model measures approximately 52.7 cm in length. The large scale of this miniature allows for a detailed representation of the aircraft's distinctive silhouette, cockpit glazing, cargo bay, and external equipment.
The Mi-171Sh is a military variant of the Mi-8/Mi-17 helicopter family, designed for transporting troops and cargo, as well as performing combat support missions. The aircraft can be equipped with weaponry mounted on external hardpoints. Glue and paints are not included in the kit.
The Mil Mi-171Sh is a military version of a transport helicopter developed from the Mi-8 and Mi-17 designs. This family of aircraft is among the most widely used helicopter designs in the world. It combines a relatively high payload capacity with the ability to operate from field airfields and landing sites with limited infrastructure.
The production of Mi-171 variants began in the 1990s.
The primary role of the Mi-171Sh is the transport of troops, equipment, and supplies. Depending on its configuration, the helicopter can carry up to 16 troops or approximately 4,000 kg of cargo. It can also support ground forces, conduct medical evacuations, and perform search and rescue missions.
The military Mi-171Sh variant can carry various types of weaponry on external hardpoints—such as unguided rocket pods or anti-tank guided missiles—depending on the specific configuration of an individual aircraft. This armament allows for the engagement of ground and surface targets while still maintaining the capacity to transport troops or cargo.
The helicopter is equipped with features designed to enhance survivability in combat, including armor plating for critical areas, protection for onboard systems, and self-defense suites. Advanced navigation equipment and avionics enable the aircraft to carry out missions in challenging weather conditions, both day and night, depending on its specific configuration.
The Mi-171Sh is operated by the Russian Armed Forces as well as by various international users.
The design retains the fundamental advantages of the Mi-8/Mi-17 family: a large transport cabin, the ability to carry cargo either inside the fuselage or as an external load, and the capability to operate in environments where heavier transport aircraft cannot make use of full airport infrastructure.
