Mil Mi-14 "Haze"
1967
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
www.aviastar.org/helicopters_eng/mi-14.php
Very little is known as yet of the Mil Mi-14, a derivative of the Mi-8, which is now in service with the shore-based units of the Soviet Naval Air Force and in Libya. It appears to have been tested in the Soviet Union at the beginning of 1974, entering service in 1975, and is now in full-scale production. It differs from the Mi-8 in that it has a watertight hull with sponsons and marine-type rudders on either side of the aft portion, into which the rear landing gear units retract. A fairing for the search radar is fitted underthe nose, and a dipping sonar or magnetic anomaly detector beneath the root of the tail boom. In all probability, the Mi-14 can be used for over-the-horizon target designation, guidance of surface-to-surface missiles and for search and rescue. It probably has a bomb bay for antisubmarine torpedoes, depth charges and other weapons.
--G.Apostolo "The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Helicopters", 1984
The Mi-14, allocated the NATO reporting name 'Haze', is an amphibious version of the Mi-8 intended to replace the Mi-4 in the ASW and mine counter-measure roles with the Soviet navy. The prototype, designated V-14, was first flown in September 1969 with a redesign watertight hull and sponsons containing fuel and a retractable undercarriage to confer water stability. Using the twin powerplants and rotor system of the Mi-17, the 'Haze' went into service in 1977 and has become the basic shore-based helicopter with the Soviet navy for use in three distinct roles. Although amphibious, the Mi-14 is, like its Sea King counterpart, only intended for occasional operations from water. By 1991, about 230 had been delivered, with exports to Bulgaria, Cuba, East Germany, North Korea, Libya, Poland, Romania, Syria and Yugoslavia.
