Mil V-12 seen in Nebo izmeryayetsya milyami.
The Mil V-12 is the largest helicopter ever built. The Soviet design bureau drew a large fuselage accommodating the wide cabin (measuring 28.15×4.4×4.4 m / 92.4×14.4×14.4 ft, it's more space than inside a Lockheed C-141 Starlifter ( 31.8x3.1x3.1 m / 104.4×10.2×9.1 ft) : 545 m3 versus 305,5 m3 !). The four Soloviev D-25VF turboshaft engines (two times the Mil Mi-6 power) are capable of lifting 20 to 25 t (44,000 to 55,000 lb) (again, more than a Lockheed C-141).
Two prototypes were built but despite a wide range of world records no production was done due to severe vibrations.
This page lists all films that feature a variation of the Mil V-12 ("Homer" according NATO).
