At the airbase of the Eastern Military District in the Khabarovsk Territory for the first time this year there was a training exercise with helicopters-heavyweights
In the course of it pilots of transport helicopters Mi-26 transported a large cargo of 10.5 tons of weight on an external suspension for a long distance.
Transportation of such cargoes is the most complex element in the training program for Mi-26 crews and requires a high degree of training for helicopter pilots.
