Its large production run, 4,000 kg payload class, and widespread operator base make it one of the defining rotary-wing platforms in the Russia-Ukraine War, where Ukraine operates legacy and donor-supplied Mi-17 aircraft.

Aircraft & UAVsSea KingMulti-role maritime helicopterThe Sea King is the British-built Westland WS-61 version of the Sikorsky S-61, adapted for naval anti-submarine, search-and-rescue, utility, and transport missions. In the Russia-Ukraine War, Ukraine's Sea Kings come from allied donations rather than new production, giving Ukrainian naval aviation a proven twin-engine maritime helicopter for rescue, reconnaissance, coast guard support, and transport tasks.

Aircraft & UAVsMi-24/Mi-35Attack helicopter and armed assault transportThe Mi-24/Mi-35 Hind family combines an armored attack helicopter with limited troop-carrying capacity, giving operators a platform for close air support, anti-armor fires, and armed escort. In the Russia-Ukraine War, Ukraine has used legacy and donated Mi-24V/Mi-35 airframes for low-level rocket attacks and adapted some Hinds to carry Western unguided rockets.

Aircraft & UAVsAH-64 Apache attack helicopterTwin-engine attack helicopterThe AH-64 Apache is a U.S. twin-engine attack helicopter built for armed reconnaissance, close combat, and precision attack missions with a 30 mm chain gun, rockets, and Hellfire missiles. In the United States-Iran Conflict, official Operation Epic Fury material identified Apaches among U.S. assets, and DVIDS imagery documented AH-64E aircraft from the 82nd Airborne Division operating with rockets and Hellfire missiles in the CENTCOM area.

Aircraft & UAVsAH-64A Peten attack helicopterAttack helicopterThe AH-64A Peten is the Israeli Air Force's Apache attack helicopter, a twin-seat strike platform built around the Apache airframe and used for close support and precision attacks.

Aircraft & UAVsMH-60S Sea Hawk helicopterMulti-mission maritime helicopterThe MH-60S Sea Hawk is a U.S. Navy multi-mission helicopter adapted for shipboard operations, vertical replenishment, rescue, and combat support. In the United States-Iran Conflict, MH-60S aircraft were documented aboard U.S. carriers and other ships during Operation Epic Fury, where they handled flight-deck movements, cargo transport, and at-sea support.
