His name has long entered the legend. His aircraft sizes became the pride of domestic aviation. The projects of the glorified KB Mile still make up the nucleus of the helicopter park of Russia-from the ubiquitous Mi-8, which was purchased more countries than the Kalashnikov assault rifle, to an unsurpassed Mi-12 with a lifting capacity of 40 tons, listed in the Guinness Book of Records, from the Hero of Afghanistan and Chechnya of the first The Soviet military helicopter Mi-24, which has not had equal speeds, weapons and reservation for many years, to the formidable Mi-28N "Night Hunter", superior to the vaunted American "Apache" in all articles.
But this book is more than the analysis of the projects of the great designer. After all, much in the fate of Mikhail Leontyevich Milya remains unprovable so far, and in his creative biography there are enough unknown pages and "white spots". Only now it is possible to understand what works it cost him to “punch” his revolutionary developments, how much effort was spent on overcoming administrative barriers and bureaucratic obstacles. Created by M. L. Milya, based on unique documents from the family archive and personal entries of the legendary aircraft designer, this biography for the first time restores the true history of his life
