Yakovlev Yak-60

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Yakovlev Yak-60 is a conjectural designation for a projected tandem-rotor heavy-lift helicopter of the late 1960s. It was planed to use four 6,500shp D-25VF engines, each pared in tandem with rotors from the Mil Mi-6. The aircraft is said to have a cockpit similar in layout to that of the Yak-24 and have over four times the payload of the Boeing-Vertol Chinook. The Yak-60 never made it to mockup stage and only a model exists.
