The Arctic version of the "Terminator" will be transferred to the military 25 November

The first Mi-8AMTSH-VA, adapted to the arctic conditions, will be handed over to the Defense Ministry on November 25, reports MIC with reference to tass.

“The Mi-8AMTSH-VA helicopter will be handed over to the defense agency 25 in November,” one of the members of the Russian delegation told the agency at an air show in Dubai.

Earlier, TASS reported the completion of the preparation of the first Arctic Mi-8AMTSH-VA, which was planned before the end of the year to be handed over to the military for flight tests outside the Arctic Circle. The purpose of the test is to confirm the declared characteristics.

As stated in the Ministry of Defense, "the need of the armed forces in the Mi-8AMTSH-VA can be up to 100 machines."

It is reported that the combat vehicle will receive a more powerful power plant, it is also possible to attach a ski chassis to it, and the technologies used on spacecraft are used to warm the cabin.

In addition, the helicopter is equipped with a complex of guided weapons, similar to the Mi-24.

The machines also have enhanced armor protection from lightweight metal-ceramic armor and new electronic equipment.

Sliding doors are located on two sides, and an automatic ramp allows you to reduce the landing time to several tens of seconds.

Great helicopter!

[a.hamster55]

Oh! They would have crews from the extreme peoples of the North, and then the apparatus seems to be normal, only the oleshki quickly get tired.

[Tor5]

Good deal!

[Hubun]

tightly and seriously engaged in the north

[Magic archer]

In terms of natural resources, this is the most promising area! And whoever doesn’t try to open his mouth to it! So we are moving in the right way. We are looking into the future

[Eugene-Eugene]

Yes, nuclear fusion is far away. So hydrocarbons decide everything, whether they are Texan, Arabic or Arctic.

The business is very necessary and useful. The Arctic group is getting stronger and equipped, and it pleases.
Only I, having read the headline, decided that the northerners of the Terminators had been given others, on a caterpillar platform. (And frantically recalled when these Terminators took us into service)

[sharp-lad]

That terminator is slowly growing into T15, damn it, again I can’t remember the name of an uninhabited combat module armed with 30 mm guns and 4 anti-tank complex launchers with the ability to work on low-flying low-speed targets.

A module with a 57 mm high ballistics cannon "Baikal" is already being tested. It will then go to the T-15

[BABA SHURA]

So war is on the verge

[Corsair0304]

Our Arctic began to pay special, increased attention. It would be interesting to look at such a car.

[iliitchitch]

Seriously they took up the Arctic, the benefit of the Communists left the sickly left. I especially liked that they started with the general cleaning. 100 pcs - is it not enough in such a territory?

[katalonec2014]

Well, here we are starting to overgrow North fat.

[SAM 5]

Such pepelats oh as needed.

[roskot]

The first one went. We are waiting for the rest on the way.

[colonel manuch]

The Arctic was, is and will be Russian, within the boundaries of the polar possessions of the USSR. It is a pity that they realized it late, we need to save up some fat, although in comparison with our partners we look no worse.

[Black Colonel]

And why was this wonderful helicopter called the "Terminator"? There is a tradition to call military equipment in Russian, with taste! "Polar Bear", for example, would be nice - it is clear where and why. The Russian language will give odds to any other language, and with subtext - this is generally a song. I will not list, the camarades are already in the know.

and what do you dislike about the terminator? don't you like latin?

The point is not in Latin, but in the fact that this concept refers to automatic objects, or, to put it more modernly, to robots.

[AdekvatNICK]

Terminator (from lat. (Latin) termino - I delimit, divide), a line on the disk of a planet or satellite that separates the illuminated (day) hemisphere from the dark (night).

Listen to our polyglot, if you don’t know the translation from Latin, then do not mislead people.
Terminator from the word terminar (end, destroy), and therefore the Hollywood film of the same name is called: TERMINATOR (destroyer).

[AdekvatNICK]

it is both.You are not a polyglot

[evge-malyshev]

I absolutely agree with you. I, for example, even the so-called. the platform "ARMATA" (concept) is not clear.
And the concept of "terminator" does not apply at all to an object controlled by a person

The word ARMATA from Old Russian means -GUN

"Polar Bear", for example,

Polar bears don’t fly at all, and we didn’t call the Tu-95 (for its roar) a bear.

[Black Colonel]

What I like! The Polar Bear with the wings of a giant Polar Owl is nothing to itself.

chassis, and for the cabin insulation technologies used on spacecraft are used

Is skiing not to fall through snowdrifts? Take off on a plane at the departure airport can provide additional load Or will it take off like a skier? Does the regular heater KO-50 provide normal conditions in the cockpit and cargo-passenger cabin, even at a temperature of minus 55 A in the Arctic, this temperature is rare, the ocean smooths the climate, but in the region Arctic Circle: 76 latitudes just -55 is not uncommon

[magician]

What beautiful and severe places we are developing! The technique is adjusted to the necessary characteristics. And it’s not a problem to get laborers to develop territories: ATO, ISIS and other rags, the term should be calculated from the calculation: a year for two and the possibility of parole when fulfilling the norms by 150%. Good occupational therapy, wave Kyle 24 hours a day so as not to freeze, it’s not to sunbathe with Kalash in the sand and to throw bottles of combustible mixture into people.

[Zomanus]

As for me, it’s immediately worth making such a machine in a military and civilian variation,
for such a helicopter is useful in the Arctic not only to the military.
Well, the fact that immediately weighed in with armor suggests that
that we are preparing for battles in high latitudes.

[Archon]

I ask the editors of the site to pay attention to the inadmissibility of using "yellow" flashy headlines.

"The Arctic version of" Terminator "will be handed over to the military on November 25" - this is a flashy headline of a frivolous publication
"The Arctic version of the Mi-8 (or Mi-8AMTSh) will be handed over to the military on November 25" - this is a serious headline of a serious publication

Moreover, there is some confusion with the name. For example, I first thought about the Arctic version of the BMPT "Terminator" and at first did not understand what the helicopter had to do with it.

[Bayonet]

You can call it "Polar Owl".
Heavily soaring, a polar owl flies silently above the ground, and then with a sharp throw to the ground grabs its prey with its claws.
