Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant is the Soviet-origin rotorcraft design bureau and prototype-production plant behind the Mi helicopter family, now organized within Russian Helicopters' National Helicopter Center Mil&Kamov.
3 weaponsMil Moscow Helicopter Plant traces its lineage to the Experimental Design Bureau headed by Mikhail Mil, launched in 1947. The organization became the design center for the Mi helicopter family, combining engineering, prototype construction, testing, and a trial-production base rather than acting as the main serial-production factory for every Mil design.
Russian Helicopters now groups the Mil design school with Kamov inside the National Helicopter Center Mil&Kamov. The center describes its work as research, engineering, construction, and testing of helicopter prototypes, and says Rosaviatsia issued Helicopters Mil&Kamov an aircraft-developer certificate in April 2020 for Mi and Ka brand helicopters.
Mi-series aircraft credited to Mil often moved from design and prototype work into serial production at Kazan Helicopters, Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant, Rostvertol, or other Russian Helicopters facilities. The Mil line includes the Mi-8/Mi-17 transport family, the Mi-14 amphibious maritime derivative, the Mi-24/Mi-35 attack and assault-transport family, and the Mi-28 attack helicopter.
Russian Helicopters credits Mil Moscow Helicopter Plant with designing the Mi-8/17 family and lists Kazan Helicopters and Ulan-Ude Aviation Plant as current production sites.

Russian Helicopters public materials now group Mil under the National Helicopter Center Mil&Kamov. Mi-series records distinguish the historical Mil design bureau and prototype plant from separate serial-production plants when sources make that split clear.
