@SheepJumpFish

Something to do with your impotence

[SheepJumpFish]

Oh I'm so deeply sorry, I was talking about production helicopters not experimental helicopters built years ago. And what might I ask does the Antonov have to do with anything, I was not talking about planes merely comparing the size of the Mi-26 to one.

Mil V-12 is the biggest helicopter, which is lifted with two propellers mounted horizontally on wings like a plane, the machine is fucking gigantic.

[SheepJumpFish]

Maybe there obsession with size has something to do with their masculinity, compensation maybe, if you get where I'm coming from

Mil Mi-12 - only two were built but they are intense... The video of it should be on the right hand side in the related column. Lots of components from the Halo. 4 of the engines and two of the rotors.
