The Mi-24 Assault helicopter is manned by two crew seated in tandem fully armored cockpits with bullet proof front glass.

The largest helicopter ever built..

The Soviet made Mil V-12 (Also referred to as the Mi-12, NATO reporting name "Homer") is the largest helicopter ever built. The name "Mi-12" would have been the name for the production helicopter. Since the V-12 never went into production and only two prototypes were built, the name "Mi-12" was never adopted.
