 APPLICATION

The modern multipurpose Mi-35M helicopter is based on the Mi-24V series, providing
round-the-clock combat capability, increased fire-power and improved performance.

IN BATTLEFIELD CONDITIONS, THE MI-35M PROVIDES ROUND-THE-CLOCK CAPABILITY IN THE

FOLLOWING ROLES:
• combat deployment of guided and unguided weapons in normal and partially adverse weather conditions
• flight performance at altitudes of 10-25 m at day time and not less than 50 m above ground level at night with target approach

MI-35M TRANSPORT-COMBAT HELICOPTER IS INTENDED FOR:

• destruction of armoured vehicles
• increasing mobility of land troops and provision with fire support
• paratroop operations
• evacuation of casualties
• fire support of convoys en-route
• aerial reconnaissance
• search and rescue of fixed-wing aircraft and helicopter crews
• transportation of cargo, both inside the cargo compartment and on an external sling

 VERSIONS OF APPLICATIONS HELICOPTER DESIGN

THE MI-35M DESIGN PROVIDES FOR:

• helicopter high performance especially in high temperature and high-mountainous conditions
• low signature of the helicopter
• increased helicopter survivability
• reduced labor intensity of maintenance and loading with weapons

UP-TO-DATE MAIN ROTOR SYSTEM:

• fiberglass main and tail rotor blades
• main rotor hub with elastomeric hinges
• X-shaped tail rotor

IMPROVED FUSELAGE AND HELICOPTER SYSTEMS:

• shortened wing with built-in cargo lifting system provides:
- suspension of APU-8/4U air launcher to launch ATAKA and SHTURM missiles (RH
external store rack)
- attachment and lifting/lowering removable armament or extra fuel tanks with no
use of other lifting devices
• non-retractable landing gear ensure flight safety at extreme low altitudes and in
emergency landing

The Mi-35M is a new generation helicopter that combines a unique long-term experience
of combat operations with the latest technologies and developments in helicopter
manufacturing.

BESIDES THE COMBAT VERSION, HELICOPTERS CAN BE USED

IN THE FOLLOWING VARIANTS:
• landing-troop carrier: for transportation of 8 fully-equipped paratroopers in the cargo cabin
• transport: for transportation of ammunition or other cargos weighing up to 1 500 kg inside the cargo
cabin. The helicopter is equipped with an external sling system allowing for the transportation of
cargo weighing up to 2 400 kg
• ambulance: for transportation of 2 stretcher cases and 2 seated casualties plus one medical attendant

MI-35M COMBAT SURVIVABILITY IS PROVIDED BY:

• highly effective armament complex
• radar warning station
• flare dispensers
• exhaust heat shields
• redundancy of the helicopter vital systems
• effective armour plating of the cockpit and the vital systems of the helicopters
• composite main/tail rotor blades

• round-the-clock search and detection of different targets and objects as well as low-speed air targets of helicopter-type in normal
and partially adverse weather conditions
• guidance of ATAKA (SHTURM) missiles
ARMAMENT TYPE • target acquisition by flexible and fixed guns
• measuring of the slant range up to the target and its display on PrVK-24-1 complex
• video signal output to IV-86-2 indicators
• observation of outboard area with locality picture using TV and thermal channels day and night
Guided missile armament 9K113K anti-tank guided missile complex with Shturm or Ataka missiles, 8 pcs. • detection and recognition of targets at a range of 6-8 km at day time and 4-6 km at night time

KNEI-24 navigation and electronic indication complex

of combat missions in all flight modes as well as at ground run and testing.

Night vision goggles

Suspended gun armament UPK-23-250 universal gun pod housing of 23-mm GSh-23L gun (250 rounds) – 2 pods are used for visually guided flights at night time and ensure take-off (landing) from unlit (unequipped) sites and piloting at extreme
per helicopter low altitudes.

Adaptation of lighting equipment:

• the helicopter cockpit is adapted for operation with night vision goggles
• the interior and exterior lighting systems, the signal lighting and the equipment control panels are adapted to the spectral
characteristics of night vision goggles.
