The drive was provided by two turboshaft engines, TW-3-177MT of various models, each with a capacity of 2200 HP. The first prototype flew in September 1969, and serial production lasted from 1970 to 1983. The main impulse for the development of the Mi-24 was the new tactical and operational assumptions of the Soviet Army, which began to put great emphasis on the use of attack combat helicopters in its offensive operations in the late 1960s. Originally, the Mi-8 performed well in this role, but based on its components, it was decided to create a heavily armed helicopter, faster and still capable of carrying up to 8-10 landing troops. This is how the Mi-24 was born - a machine that is revolutionary in its own way, unique in its concept and when it was put into service (early 1970s), outclassing all Western designs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eA lot of modernisation of the basic version (Mi-24) was created.
