Mil Mi-8MT/Mi-17 is one of the most recognizable and versatile transport helicopters in the world. It entered service during the Cold War in the USSR and, thanks to its reliability and ease of maintenance, quickly gained popularity in the ground forces and air forces of many countries. The Mi-8MT (export designation: Mi-17) proved itself during armed conflicts in Afghanistan, Africa, Asia, and Europe.

The Quickboost QB49053 set allows you to upgrade the standard model of the helicopter by refining the rear part of the fuel tank, eliminating simplifications and errors characteristic of the basic kit's parts.
