It is a little-known variant of the Mi-6 helicopter, created based on the extensive experience of the Mil design bureau gained while developing heavy transport helicopters. The Mi-22 prototype was intended to serve as an airborne command and control post, mainly to support missile and artillery units. Although the Mi-22 did not enter serial production, test units were used by the Soviet armed forces between 1965 and 1990, and its design solutions contributed to the development of later, advanced command platforms.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eKit characteristics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eScale: \u003cstrong\u003e1\/72\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eUser country: \u003cstrong\u003eUSSR\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eService period: \u003cstrong\u003eCold War, 1960s–1980s\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-quality \u003cstrong\u003eplastic\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe kit does not include glue or paints\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eContains a clear assembly manual and decals for creating authentic Soviet Mi-22 markings\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eCrisp surface details, accurate cockpit elements and specialized equipment reproduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eWho do we recommend this model for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    We recommend this model to both Soviet aviation enthusiasts and collectors of rare prototypes and specialized military aircraft.
