The Mil Mi-19 was an airborne command post helicopter developed in 1987 from the Mi-8MT, as the successor to the Mi-9 that had been built on the earlier Mi-8T. It served as a flying command post for the commanders of motorised rifle and tank divisions, and a variant called the Mi-19R was equipped for the commanders of missile divisions. A microcomputer based complex of technical means installed for the air control point improved reliability, survivability and the range over which a grouping of troops could be managed. The aircraft received orders and alerts from higher authorities, passed on reports, orders and control signals, and exchanged operational information with neighbouring command posts. It has been produced since 1987 and keeps the two Klimov TV3-117MT engines of the Mi-8MT.
